I just called Holiday inn Express to get a qoute for blocking rooms for my wedding...I almost died when I heard the price..
$159.00 a night yikes.. i went to a wedding last year and was mad at the 139.00 price...
It does not help I am getting married on Memorial Day weekend..
I feel horrible about asking them to spend this...I am going to puke!

That is a little high but it IS Memorial Weekend so that is probably why.

don't feel bad.. the holiday inn express in riverhead is $169 for the Thursday night and $209 for the Fri and Sat nights! (Columbus Day weekend!) Best Western isn't much better- still $169-189 per night! Living on the North Fork is ridiculous!!!

I know it...then the sales person was like 'tell your guest to book it in the next 3 months because that weekend seels out fast and we cannot guarantee anything'...

I think thats good, I was getting quotes at some hotels in river head for $209 and $229... one hotel actually told me they wouldn't charge more than $299...
I think thats about right what u were quoted.

I'm getting married the next day and same price . . . . . The Red Roof Inn nearby might be cheaper, they're on my list to call, and the Fairfield Marriott in Syosset was $135 nt. same weekend.

They are not supposed to do that, if you reserve a block, it stays reserved until one month prior . . . tell them to put it in writing
Also, they're not supposed to even quote you until 50 weeks prior, so be careful, it might go up (just that hotel . . . been communicating with them for a while b/c they're next door to my hall)
