Re: ***Official Leonards of Great Neck Thread***
For the brides who went with a cake from another vendor did Leonard's give you a discount for not using their cake, did they charge you an extra fee, and how much did you end up spending? I know alot of questions! I just want to see which is a better deal. I mean if I can get a better cake for less money why not! I mean especially since they don't even let you taste the cake which I think is absurd!

When I first booked with Leonards, I asked if they would give a discount if we bring a cake from outside...they said no discount. I didn't ask about extra fees because when I heard no discount, I didn't pursue the outside option.
A lot of other RHs also don't do cake tastings. We are doing a full Vienesse hour, so if they don't like the cake, they can eat anything else they want.

for my room, they are going to open up the walls and it will be in the bridal suite.
usually they dont wheel it in...its usually in another room, or behind the moveable walls.

I'm in the Tiffany room as well. I haven't seen any layouts yet but where are you putting your Dj/Band? I was thinking about putting them on the opposite side where we sit.

lol at 'Ian the Finisher.' Sometimes I wonder why we pay the maitre d' the big bucks, when we hound the banquet managers the most and they provide you with far more assistance all year round.
