Re: FOX HOLLOW BRIDES - Question & Answer Thread

The burgundy chairs in the Garden Terrace are kinda ugly. I got them to throw the chair covers in when I booked because i couldn't stand them, but loved the room. Then, there was a screw up with something else and I got them to throw the sashes in as compensation!!

Re: FOX HOLLOW BRIDES - Question & Answer Thread

I had a quick question. I just got my invites and now I need to get the directional cards from fox hollow. Do I just call and they can mail then to me or do I have to go there to pick them up?

Re: FOX HOLLOW BRIDES - Question & Answer Thread

The chairs in the pic don't look too bad. personally i think they go with the room decor and I would take them and spend money somewhere else. But I got the chair covers thrown in and Dave made it sound like the sash was included as well... i guess we'll have to see. If not, the covers were expensive and I too am not a fan of the burgandy red chairs I had seen. I guess an easy way to decide is asking yourself, 'Do I remember the charis/covers at other weddings I've atteneded?' That's the question I ask for a lot of stuff and depending on how much I remember it, then i usually think it's important to focus a little attention or $ on. I only remember the chairs at 1 wedding I've been to out of the past 5 and that's b/c they were covered and the decor was well overboard.

Hope i've helped

I know i'm crazy but I was thinking of doing chair covers there chairs are soo ugley! lol the offered a discount since they need to update them! what do u think?



what room are you in? the chairs in my room were very very nice and didn't need covers. i thoght all the rooms had the same style chair, but I may be wrong...

here is a pic of mine where you can sort of see the chairs. I dont have one of the entire chairs though. But maybe the new ones for the other rooms will be like this? Sorry its not a better pic!!



Those are the new chairs Frank showed me.



I will be there on Monday so i will ask. If they get the gold posted back chairs for the Garden Terrace I'll be doing cartwheels on Jericho Turnpike! lol

Just to clarify...they didn't throw in the sashes initially....Only the COVERS! I had a BIG problem with something else that went on there and to compensate me, I basically forced them into including the sashes. They don't have sashes on site, but had to order from elsewhere. It is VERY DIFFICULT and they had to do SOMETHING wrong to throw these in. Just to clarify!

those aren't the chairs they showed me in my room yesterday, they showed me ugley burgundy ones



ya I think a lot of halls are switching to the chairs I had. They use to have white iron chairs in the WGP- and thats what they had when I booked and they were just switching that room over to these. Chairs were actually very important to me when I was booking because I personally didn't want chair covers, so we had to choose a place that already had chairs I liked. LOL.

FYI -
I just called to find out if they were getting new chairs in the Garden Terrace room & I was told that they arent aware of that yet. I hope they do as well. They also said to call back to speak with David (my BM) to find out for sure. He is not in at today. I spoke with Susan.

Re: FOX HOLLOW BRIDES - Question & Answer Thread

FYI- It's not really possible to negotiate for something that you want after you've signed your contract. I ordered something from PWP and it came in WRONG! Rather than having them spend a lot of $$ to reorder it, I kept it and they compensated me by picking up the tab on my chair sashes through fox hollow.

Re: FOX HOLLOW BRIDES - Question & Answer Thread

Hey all! Quick question as the wedding is almost just two weeks away! We're working on the seating charts and the charts we got from the Fox Hollow have tables that say 'P' and 'F.' Does anyone know what they stand for?!

Re: FOX HOLLOW BRIDES - Question & Answer Thread

P= # of people at that table
F= # of favors for that table (say you had 12 people but only 6 favors since they were 1 per couple!)

HTH! Have a great wedding and please come post some pics after!!
