Hi and congrats. I fell in love with the pics of the fox hollow specifically the Somerley. We originally were looking for the winter of 2016, February. I think the quote was for 119 pp + tax. After meeting with the Somerley twice we decided to book elsewhere. We had a terrible experience with the sales staff. We ended up paying $30 more pp and moved our date to November for peace of mind with the weather. We booked at the sand castle and can not be happier. They are amazing. The sandcastle was at $130 pp + tax for February.

Hi everyone! I am new to this site but loving it already. We have appointments next weekend to see:
Fox hollow
North ritz club
Woodbury country club
Carlyle on the green
Sands Atlantic beach
Sandcastle

We are planning on winter 2016 for 140-150 people on a Saturday or Sunday. Fox hollow is the front runner in my mind :)

I would love any advice about these venues, quotes and anything to share about what to watch out for at venues!!

Unrelated but anyone have trouble uploading a picture for profile? It doesn't recognize pictures from my iPhone!

Thanks in advance everyone!!!

We had our wedding at Fox Hollow (Winter Garden Pavillion) We wanted a winter wedding and the room was perfect. It had such a warm, cozy, intimate feel to it and our guests raved about the place as well as the food =) I relive that day in my mind everyday and sometimes even in my dreams =)

I vote Milleridge but I am biased! I know very few people on here would agree but I found the banquet managers very snobby at Fox and they were very inflexible on every question I had!

I thought the same thing, I did not like the banquet manager at Fox Hollow. He was very rude and very pushy about booking right then and there.
