100-125....small?

I honestly thought that was not small.
I always took pride in the fact that I had a very small group of close freindsand so does the FH
But since I started calling venues it sure has made me feel like crap

Should I be honest with myself and tell my FH that a hall might not be for us or can we really make this work?

Absolutly NOT! There's are PLENTY of RHs that will accomodate you. What areas are you looking in...LI or the City? I know the Brentwood Country Club can accomodate lower numbers...

Thats what we are looking at guest wise as well, our minimum is 100 people at the Fox Hollow in January.

I don't think its small at all! Some of the halls want higher guarantees for certain rooms, but there are plenty of halls that will accommodate that number!

I had 98 at the Irish Coffee Pub. I think smaller is better but that is JMO. There are plenty of RH's that can cater to your needs.

Try the Fox Hollow- winter garden pavilion room.

My minimum is 110 people on a Friday night, for afternoons I've heard as low as 80. We're estimated 120-130 guests. The Halls can work with you...don't feel bad

Westbury Manor also has a room to accomodate the size wedding you're having. Douglaston Manor, Venetian Yacht Club Lots more but these are the ones I seriously considered.

We have a minimum of 100! Most places were willing to give us that, and a few had gave us a minimum of 110, or 125.

Is this for an afternoon or Evening wedding? I know that they usually make the minimums higher for evening weddings, but I know there are places for both!

Hey I am in the same situation...my wedding is not going to be more than 85 people. I am looking to some places that can hold smaller weddings.

Here are some I am planning in the future to visit:

Swan Club
Harbor Club
Stewart Manor CC
Milleridge Carriage House
Coral House

HTH

You have FM from me...

That is not small! We have a 75-80 person wedding and we still found plenty of places willing to work with us. Especially as I see your wedding date is in Feb, just like mine, so you should not have problems. If places make you feel bad, you definitely don't want your wedding there anyway!

we are having a 100 person min at VYC on a Saturday afternoon in May...If I had more family the # would be larger but since I have a smaller fam its mostly friends and FH family.

I dont think its 'small' it will be more intimate and you can actually drop by tables (if you choose to) and see everyone...

BTW...just made 1000 with this post!

There are SO many halls that offer lower minimums: Jericho terrace, fox hollow, swan club are just a few...and they are all BEAUTIFUL!
