Mr. Met appearance/ Groom's cake

Does anyone know how to hire Mr. Met to attend your wedding reception and how much he costs?

Also those of you who got Mr. Met Groom's Cakes, my FH would love this... what bakery did you use?

Thanks!!

Re: Mr. Met appearance/ Groom's cake

there was an 08 bride that JUST had mr met at her wedding. Plus i think others did this too so they would know better about prices

I used cakes by jay for our wedding cake but he can do cakes that are all shapes and sizes. Also audrey's makes GREAT groomscakes

Re: Mr. Met appearance/ Groom's cake

someone i know had mr met at their wedding. I believe it was $500. good luck.

Re: Mr. Met appearance/ Groom's cake

I have been looking into this myself as well because me and FH are OBSESSED with the Mets.... I heard that you can request him on Mets.com, but how you do it... I dunno.

Re: Mr. Met appearance/ Groom's cake

Yeah i have to call up the mets main office or something then...

FH saw this video on Youtube and was DYING laughing:

He was like 'we HAVE to hire him!' lol..

Re: Mr. Met appearance/ Groom's cake

If you go to the mets website and go to the fanzone part there's actually a link to a number that you can call. It's $500 for an hour appearance. I am hoping that my date is doable because it's before baseball season, but they're not booking any 2009 dates yet until the season schedule is completed.

Haha I just watched it.. it looks like so much fun!! Did you see the other video of him dancing to Jesse's Girl!! LMAO. It is worth it!

Re: Mr. Met appearance/ Groom's cake

I have Mr.Met hired for my wedding in 2 months. It is 500 for an hour. You need to supply him with a room to change into and he getsa 15 minute break.

I don't know about the cake though. Go Mets!!!!

Wait, I shouldn't say that too loud now lol It's october, and they are nowhere to be seen!!!!!

Re: Mr. Met appearance/ Groom's cake

We plan to hire him for our wedding! He's actually going to surprise FH at his 30th birthday next month....I'll be paying $400 but I booked this several months ago....rates may have increased since.

I will post pictures of his b-day party right after the festivities.....for now, let's hope it's as fun as this:

i thought the same thing when i read this. GEts paid $500 for one hour and needs a 15 minute break although he will only be there for an hour, gotta love that part

Re: Mr. Met appearance/ Groom's cake

I hired him for finace's 30th last January. Let me tell you an hour is plenty and he didn't take the 15min break. The $500 was well worth it and totally hillarious. My only suggestion is make sure he arives after people have been drinking a little. I had him come right at the beginning and people really didn't know what to do at first. Everyone got a lot of pics.

Yeah i def agree, if he does come to my wedding (which at this point im not sure since my wedding is in june) then i would prob have him come toward the last hour of the reception... when people have had more than enough drinks!

Re: Mr. Met appearance/ Groom's cake

I almost had him come to our E-party. He is $500 for the hour but, he is required to take a 10 minute break so you actually only have him for 50 minutes. They also charge traveling fees after a certain amount of miles away from Shea...I just didn't do it because I didn't think ti was worth it for the E-Party.

But if it happens to be on a weekend that they're away, then it shouldn't be a problem. The guy told me to call back in December and then they should have the 09 season firmed up. Good luck.

maybe he only charges brides extra lol b/c I calld him in the beginning of the year, and he was still $500. We were going to hire him for a BBQ and called earlier in the year to set it up,and we found out he was $500 , so we didnt book him. Maybe b/c it was just a b-day party it was $400??? That is weird lol

:(

Re: Mr. Met appearance/ Groom's cake

Mr Met is coming to our Rh but it was part of our gift from one of the gms....not sure of how he did it...I would call the stadium for info...its pricey...but so worth it for us crazy met fans!

Mr. Met will make any occasion 'Amazin'!'
For more information, please call (718) 559-3093.

I see that on my wedding day they will be playing Houston @ Citifield in the afternoon. I hope we can get him. I'd want him to come during cocktail hour. Hopefully they won't tank the season.
