Checked out RHs this weekend...

My fiance and I had a jam packed weekend checking out RHs since we were only in from Boston for 2 days. Here's the rundown...

Crescent Beach Club - absolutely gorgeous views and you're paying to be right there on the beach. In the end, we didn't feel it was a good fit for us and a bit overpriced for a Sunday night. I couldn't believe how booked up they already were too, crazy!

Lands End - This was my most anticipated hall to check out. From the second we walked inside we were treated like gold. The place is so polished and elegant. The service was phenominal, the views are gorgeous, and the food sounds amazing! I was scared to see the price, but it's totally workable for us for a Sunday night. My FH and I just knew this would be the place and I left feeling so happy!

West Sayville CC - Extremely affordable and gorgeous location. Not as polished or professional, but very nice and a great value. We were so sold on Lands End that we ruled this one out.

Lombardi's on the Sound - We went here b/c we already had an appt and it's silly not to see as much as you can. My only pet peeve was that my appt was rescheduled twice the day before and then I was called again the day of asking me to push it later once again. So we went there with a bad taste in our mouths for the service. The woman we met with was definitely very nice though, but not as professional as Lands End.
The place is gorgeous and IMPRESSIVE! But, it didn't feel unique for us and we also fear the service will be lacking. The price was much better than Lands End so now we're a bit stuck.

Any advice...Lands End vs. Lombardi's??? I'm making an extra trip home on Friday just to check each one out again with my mom and ger her opinion.

Anyone work with either and have any complaints? I've heard a few for Lombardi's, but everyone says that the day of it was outstanding. I have yet to hear a bad word muttered about Lands End.

Wow, that was long!! Any advice would be amazing ladies! Thanks

I went RH hunting this weekend too hehe..I saw 4 places. It looks like we are sort of looking for the same thing because Lands End and Lombardis On The Sound were also on my list! You can check out my post from Sat nite about Surf Club and a few other New Rochelle places on the water if you want!

I've actually had Lombardi's on the Sound recommended to me from about 10 people now, whenever I mention that I want a RH on the water, that name always gets thrown at me. I haven't went to see if yet but I plan to within the next few weeks. I heard the view and the food is amazing!

I've heard great things about Lands End actually too from the girls on this board. From the pictures online the view is amazing and I like the room..I'm just disappointed that I don't see any chandeliers in the pictures :( Are there any there that I'm just not seeing??

Sorry I don't have any personal experience from these places yet but I figured I'd try to help a little!

Hi, I haven't been to either but, I would suggest doing a search on here to see what other people think of these places and if anything bad was said FM the person for more info.

I just looked through my pictures and didn't see any chandeliers. They mentioned that they illuminate the room with votive candles and lighting on the centerpieces. It sounds really romantic.

The perk of Lombardi's though are the chandeliers and high ceilings. Very very impressive looking and brigher than Lands End.

we also checked out lands end and crescent beach club. we were looking for a sat night in the sumer so we got quoted very high prices. lands end was a lil cheaper. lands end does offer amazing extras for the cocktail hour and vienesse hour with so many diff options. the view at lands at is gorgeous but i just didnt fall in love with the room. i felt it was kind of plain and there isnt much view of the water from the reception room. but it is a very nice place.
