So I have a question I didn't see answered. If you are in the Garden Terrace and you have the outdoor patio for the Cocktail Hour, where do they put the place card table?

Re: NEW- FOX HOLLOW BRIDES- Question and Answer Thread

I'm so glad this is catching on!

We are getting the Vienesse trays which come with little cookies, canollis, tarts, cakes for the table. I think the VH also has a sundae bar, chocolate fountain, etc. It probably would be best to check with them for all of the details. When they were showing us the upgrades, the details weren't very specific: I think it said various pies, cakes. You probably have to ask for flavors. HTH!

Being an obssessive compulsive freak, I actually took the time out to go to Egra (the bakery that provides the cakes for Fox Hollow) to sample the filings and also to bring in a picture of exactly what I want. Figured it will yeild a better chance of them getting it done correctly (I'm a huge control freak).

The white chocolate mousse filling is just to die for! It's sooooooooooooooo good! French Custard is great too (it was my second favorite). They also recommend to stay away from fresh bananas as they go brown after only a few minutes and it may not be too appealing to see brown pieces inside your wedding cake. Napoleon is an option - that is correct.

For linens they also offer gold (I know since that's what I picked) ;)

Hope that helps!

I have the list of Extras I can scan it tonight/tomorrow for you. I have their menu in a word file (only including main entrees). They sent it to me so I can modify the monogram and also translate the menu into Russian (some elderly reletives don't speak much English). If you need it send me your e-mail I'll be happy to provide it.

VH includes everything that V trays include, plus chocolate fountain, plus assorted cakes (from what I understood they will provide around 5 small cakes or so - of course depending on the size of your wedding). One of them is red velvet I know that.

Re: NEW- FOX HOLLOW BRIDES- Question and Answer Thread

Going to post things I found in the old Fox Hollow Forum

From 2007 (questions and answers)

Question: If we don't do a cake with the Fox Holllow - how much credit do we get & is there an upgrade fee for a cake?

Answer: You get a $100 credit & can use it towards an ice sculpture or something else during the reception. There is no upgrade fee - for all cakes they have in the book - there's no extra charge. I didn't ask if they give cash...

Question: What are the linen colors?

Answer: Wine, forest green, black, baby pink, baby blue, bright red(really pretty), gold patterned, ivory patterned, plain white & navy.

Question: What size aisle runner? Width & length?

Answer: Jenn will get back to me on that - she's really not sure.

Question: Are margaritas & dacquiris included in price or extra charge as per 'extras sheets' sent in mail?

Answer: If you want a SEPARATE station - there is a charge. The table would be set up with a sombrero or beach scene, etc. For regular bar orders - it's included free of charge.

Question: Can you do a cake for my sister in law's birthday?

Answer: Yes, free of charge.

Question: What types of vodka?

Answer: Kettle One, Grey Goose, etc.

Question: Can we get into WGP for pics ahead of time?

Answer: Party in there until 5 - after 5, we can have free reign.

Question: What type of flowers for CH centerpieces?

Answer: they're bubble type small glasses with a single floating flower (they're very cute).

Question: We'd like to do a candy bar - can we?

Answer: YES - YOU DO NOT NEED THE BOWLS - THEY HAVE SOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They will set up for you - free of charge.

Question: Do you provide menus?

Answer: Yes & they can email you the file to make changes to: font, put your name on it. They will print for FREE.

Question: Can we see the placecards?

Answer: Yes - and they are the fox hunt ones - HOWEVER, the reverse side is plain ivory and we can just use that - so there's no charge....

Question: We really don't eat much on the 7 course menu list....(i know we're weird).

Answer: They will make the bride & groom WHATEVER YOU WANT!! ! They're making us chicken cutlet parmigiana & veal parmigiana!!!

Question: How many people per table?

Answer: No fewer than 8 and no more than 12.

Question: What to do with favors?

Answer: Whatever you want, they can give them out after dinner, have them on the tables when people walk in, whatever you want to do!!!

Question: Can we do a rehearsal?

Answer: Not really - unless your wedding falls on a Friday - then you can do a rehearsal during the week, otherwise - they are too booked with parties.

Question: My wedding is January 20th, will the Christmas decorations still be up?

Answer: No - the decorations come down the second week in January...(boo).

Re: NEW- FOX HOLLOW BRIDES- Question and Answer Thread

The square footage of the WGP is 2646ft

12 top tables are 72'

The size of the WGP minus the dance floor is about 52' x 30'
and the dance floor is about 33’ ½ X 20’

The WGP schematic says that it should fit 156 people for a sit down dinner with a dance floor fine.
