advice please!
Hey girls,
I have a few things I'm confused about and was wondering if you could give me some advice on this stuff.
For the limos... We are getting ready at a hotel, and doing a hotel room block for our guests. So we will be getting a shuttle bus from the hotel to the venue (where the ceremony and reception will be) and then having the shuttle go from the venue to the hotel at night time. I called about getting a trolly and they said if you do the multiple hour package you can have it go back and forth as much as you want. In order to save money i was thinking of only getting the trolley, but then it would need to do all these trips:
- hotel to the park for the girls pictures
- back to the hotel get the boys and take them to the park for pictures
- take everyone to the venue from the park
- go back to the hotel and get the guest to go to the venue
is that way too much and risking making everything late? If we only got that one shuttle it would save us like $1,000
also, i think/hope we will do our hotel block at Fox Hallow which i believeee they give you a small shuttle as part of your room block
Then for the hotel:
Most of our guests are from Brooklyn and Staten Island. I would say only 6 people out of 130 are from Long Island.. so I'm thinking ALOT of people are going to want to stay in the hotel. How do you figure out how many hotel rooms to book? Should I do a mass email to our guests and ask who would want to stay in the hotel? or is that tacky? ..Maybe send out info about the hotel with our Save the dates in June?
thanks for the help girls! this stuff is way more stressful then i thought it would be before i got engaged haha
