Douglaston Manor~loved it but I didn't think we were getting that much for our $$

Ariana Waterfall ~ nice room, great amount of food, all inclusive but it is right next to an IHOP

A Place in Queens that didn't have sit down and everything was extra

Westbury Manor ~ loved it only downside, we are having a small wedding probably 75-100 so they showed us the small room which we thought would be a tight squeeze on the dance floor plus the bridal suite was super tiny. We want to go back to look at the next size room

We also want to look at Jericho Terrace but I am trying to find some prices. We wanted May 2010 but I think we are gonna push it til April or May 2011.

So any help of suggestions would be great. We don't want to spend a ton of money on the place.

If you're willing to go off-season, some RHs are more willing to work with you on the price per person and minimum head counts.

I was at a wedding a few years ago at Chateau La Mer that was about the size that you're planning. The room was beautiful and the food was very good.

I've also been to weddings at Sand Castle, which were beautiful.

I've also heard good things about Swan Club, but I've never been there.

Re: Official 30+ Brides (previously 40+ thread)

Oh..we've been to Swan club..We didn't like the set up and the room we had the CH was outside with no provisions for rain except a tent

We can find places for our mimimum it's what they are offering

Has anyone been to Majestic Gardens..it's kind of far from us by their pictures are beautiful on their site

I've looked Majestic Gardens and went to a wedding there. I thought the place was beautiful and was in love with the marble dance floor. Until I remember that most woman do not mark up the bottom of their shoes before wearing them. At least the people i know. I thought the food was very good.

Re: Official 30+ Brides (previously 40+ thread)

Hi everyone-
is anyone having bachorette parties? I am thinking- Both FH and I are past the age of bar hopping and not into strippers we are thinking of going out to eat with BM, MOH, friends andm brothers and to a comedy club.

What is everyoneelse doing?

Re: Official 30+ Brides (previously 40+ thread)

I don't know yet what I'm doing for a bachelorette party. I'm thinking something low-key like a spa day or gourmet cooking class. I wasn't into club hopping in my single days, so I don't really feel the need to do it now.

For my sister's bachelorette a few months ago, I hired DJ Chef, which was a lot of fun. It was like having the best club in your own living room!

Re: Official 30+ Brides (previously 40+ thread)

I'm having a bachlorette...probably out to eat & then some sort of lounge with drinks and music.

Might meet up with FH, not sure yet.

Def no strippers neither of us are into that
