Next step: Booking hotels for OOT guests (info inside) UPDATED
We decided to try to get this done next...
We have stayed at the Huntington Hilton and got the prices when we were there for the WOTY... we weren't impressed when we stayed there in December for FSIL and FBIL's wedding mostly because the bar was closed and it was supposed to be open (the bride and groom told them people were coming back and staying primarily for that reason), our room was very noisy (next to a conference room) and my glass was dirty at breakfast the next morning. Anyway, we got a quote of $119 a night, for 10 rooms. ANything over that we have to leave a deposit or something. Shuttle available for $400. No bridal suite, just an executive suite.
I had gone to the Melville Mariott a few months ago and got a quote of $109 a night. We went back to look today and the rooms were nice, but not as nice as the Inn at Planiview (soon to be Four Points Sheraton). The other problem with them was that the bar closes 'promptly at 1'... our wedding is over at 12:30 so that doesn't help! Again, no bridal suite.
What we are 99% sure we are going with is the Inn at Plainview which on May 1st will become a Four Points Sheraton. The rooms are all new, and beautiful. They all have fridges and microwaves... They have a jacuzzi bridal suite with a glass enclosed shower as well as mini-jacuzzi suites. They are opening a new restaurant and bar (which will stay open as long as they know we're coming). We were given a quote of $119 but they will match the Mariotts quote if I can show them proof. Michael was wonderful to work with. Only problem is the location because it's on the LIE service road and could be confusing for OOT guests....
So, that's the info we got... I would definetly reccommend the Sheraton, it really easy beautiful and they are still adding to it. If you have any questions feel free to ask and I will do my best to answer!!
