Re: Thatched cottage thread

They know what they are doing!! We were in and out of there and I though the price was great for what we wanted. So we are using them YIPPIEEEEEEEE another thing off the check list

Re: Thatched cottage thread

yay! !!! I hate having this hanging over my head! maybe I shoud go there--I have an obsession with orchids and I dont think that are included in their any flower one price deal but maybe I could work something out.......

Re: Thatched cottage thread

LOL!! I'm obsessed with orrchids too!! I looked at one place today and showed her this picture that I loved and they told me it had the most expensive orchid on the planet! She said she could do the cheaper one and it would be close to the picture, but still not cheap enough...and probably not as nice!!

Let us know what happens at Burtons and if Orchids can be included in that price!

Re: Thatched cottage thread

I'm using Vito from Pedestals. He is super great and they are my favorite vendor so far. I know that they do have orchids but I'm not sure of the price.

Re: Thatched cottage thread

My cousin called me this morning to tell me that she opened up the bridal planner in today's Newsday and saw the ad for the TC! She said she's never seen it before and the pictures look really pretty....I just wish they had more pictures of the inside.

Re: Thatched cottage thread

my best friend got married at the thatched cottage last june and although we loved the place, she had several cards missing when she went through them the next day. They do a great job, but watch where you put things!!

Re: Thatched cottage thread

I feel this is the same for any place you go. You should always keep cards in a safe place.

Re: Thatched cottage thread

i hope they dont delete our thread again - i have a feeling that this type of talk was what prompted Client Services to delete it - blah!

ITA. You never know for anyplace. Plus, there is no proof that the bride/groom/anyone else didn't misplace the cards. Is your friend sure they even got a card from that person? I don't mean this in the wrong way, i just mean that I don't think this only applies to the TC.

ITA as well... I know a couple that freaked out on the RH and vendors because they were missing 2 cards... they thought they were stolen, only to find out a few months later that the the two couples that the cards were supposed to be from never even gave them cards lol. I think its a risk you take with all places.

Re: Thatched cottage thread

Yes I agree you take the risk anywhere you go. You cant freak out unless you def know that person gave you a card. And even then, you dont know who would have taken it...or if it was simply misplaced, thrown out, etc. Hence the reason I always, always, always give a check!

Re: Thatched cottage thread

I totally agree - you have to be careful no matter where you are having your reception. The same thing happened to friends of mine - she thought they went 'missing' due to RH staff. It turns out, one of her cousins had a drug problem and admitted to swiping some of the envelopes!

Guard them carefully no matter where you're having your wedding.

Not yet ..but that is on my list of things to do.. I have heard great things about pedestals and was told last time I was in that they are now a house vendor so I can wait to go look.

Re: Thatched cottage thread

oh nice---maybe I'll check them out too

Re: Thatched cottage thread

so does anyone know how the work /refurbishng is going at thatched??

Re: Thatched cottage thread

I'll ask my boss to drive that way in to work on Tuesday morning....I'll report back. Last I heard, he said it looked great.

Re: Thatched cottage thread

yay!! Where is everyone having their rehearsal dinner? Any decisions?

Re: Thatched cottage thread

I don't even know when my rehearsal is going to be! I have to make arrangements for it at pre-cana but pre-cana hasn't started yet.

Re: Thatched cottage thread

We booked limos this week! If you need them and haven't booked them yet, definitely check out Camelot - they were great.

We still have to do shuttle buses but Joe from Camelot told us to hold off until it gets closer so we get a better estimate of how many people we're going to have to shuttle between the hotel and TC.
