Re: Official Floral Terrace Thread...
Is anyone hoping that the sparklers can make a comeback at this venue???
I know about the new fire laws and all, but Marianne told me that by the time I get married ( a year from now) that maybe it'll be offered again. I know someone who had them , just recently saw her wedding video and it was AWESOME! They came on when the couple entered the room! What an IMPACT!
Thanks NOVBRIDE! I'm glad to be here!
TIVOGLIOBENE-- I have a payment due tomorrow. Maybe I'll take a ride over there today, if my FH comes home from work early. I'm a Manhattan gal who doesn't drive!

Hey Marcela.
Does FT supply bathroom baskets? Also, did you take family portraits? If so, where in FT did you take those? (maybe you took them at the gazebo in Garden City, tho?)
i went there last night for my plans and to pick out the menu. i asked about bathroom baskets and attendants. there are bathroom attendants and baskets. but i think the baskets are small, not to much in them
Thanks!!!! Let me know what you end up doing..just curious

Re: Official Floral Terrace Thread...
OK Q's!!!
Who is everyone using for photo/video, limos and music???
I've booked with Atlantis Limos, but have doubts, so I may just cut my losses ($300) and go with a limo place in Bklyn.
Saw Deja Vu (FT photo/video vendor), liked them, but not sure yet.
Meeting with Classie Sounds(Dj's) next week.

Photo/Video- Duet....girl, they are awesome! We booked them on the spot...they had just the style we were looking for....check them out!!!
Music-we are definitely getting a DJ-probably gonna go with Dash of class but haven't gotten too far yet...
Limos-FH knows someone (who did his sisters wedding at sandcastle a couple years ago...I will find out the name)
Flowers-probably LA Blossom (vendor on here) or Flowers by Emil..I am deciding soon..
what else....?

Re: Official Floral Terrace Thread...
I think we are going with Twelfthnight photography. WE really loved Dominic and thought his pics were beautiful. We are going to get the contract done now.
It was between them & Silverfox.
We are taking pics @ Old Westbury Gardens and left them a deposit b/c I want some outdoor pics if weather is good. Otherwise they have a mansion we can use for inclement weather.
Video- he refuses to let us get one- I am trying to persuade him.
For flowers my dads girlfriend owns a florist.
For a dj we are going w/ Bravo Sounds. Theyare awesome and have the regular music as well as greek & italian stuff.
Limos I am working on now and have no clue.

Re: Official Floral Terrace Thread...
OK--ARE WE ALL GREEK AND ITALIAN????
 
are these vendors from LI?
I may surprise my dad with a Greek band, but I also wanted to include music by my grandfather (his dad and clarinet player) who past many years ago. We have his music on tapes. What do you think?
BTW--just got FM from a vendor who said the FT has great food!!!!!!!
LOOKS LIKE WE MADE A GREAT CHOICE WITH FT!!!!!!!

Pretty much! Yes, all on LI. Oh wait, Flowers by Emil is in Brooklyn.
That is a great idea to include music from your grandfather....just make sure there is a good sound system since music is on tape.
Yipee! I knew I didn't get that "feeling" when I left FT for the first time for nothing!!!!

Ok grooms cakes are a relatively new idea and I hear it is very popular down south.
Ok we were good until you said Yankees...I am a die hard Mets fan hahaha j/k
This can take place at RD or reception (ive seen both) It is supposed to be a nice gesture for the groom since weddings are usually all about the bride....I suppose you can have a bride's cake too....don't go crazy!!!!

Re: Official Floral Terrace Thread...
YEs I guess it is popular down south. I recall watching the movie Steel Magnolias where they had an armadillo blood red grooms cake!
Actually the Yankees cake would be a cake for me and him. We are both die hard fans! 
Gotta give credit to the METS --they did sweep us!
That's OK cause we swept the RED SOX!

Re: Official Floral Terrace Thread...
Hey girls!! Thanks for all the good wishes! I just got back from my honeymoon! I will write a full review later but I have to tell you how AMAZING the Floral Terrace was. I had the best day of my life. My family and friends cannot stop talking about the place. The food and service were so incredible. They can't get over the quality and quantity of the food that was served. I may be one of the only brides that actually ate at her wedding so I know first hand. They gave my husband and I a tray with all 5 entrees so I tried everything, and then they gave us food to go home with. Before cocktail hour and the Viennese hour, Andreas (who was amazing by the way) took us to see everything set up before the guests came in. I have been to a lot of weddings and I have never ever seen so much food at a cocktail or Viennese before.
People were so impressed. The cigar bar was also worth the money, my family loved that!! Andreas was so attentive and knew exactly what was going on at all times, he even came out to greet us when we arrived. The room looked absolutely beautiful, and they listened to all my special instructions like not fanning the napkins because of my low centerpieces, and my cake came out beautiful!!!!!! When I saw the room for the first time with my centerpieces and hundreds of candles glowing it was like a dream.I will post pictures later. Let me know if you have any questions.!!!
Michelle

Re: Official Floral Terrace Thread...
Are any of you doing themes at your wedding? I am having a difficult time finding invitations that I like & go with the ambience of the Floral Terrace. Can you post pics of your invitations?? TIA

Re: Official Floral Terrace Thread...
I am so glad you had a great day Michelle...can't wait for pics!
As for invitations/themes, I think anything elegant/classy/simple/sophisticated would work...I haven't decided on mine yet but they will most likely be very simple elegant and probably square.
