Flower Field

My fiance and I checked into that place...it's always been my dream place since I went to a wedding there about 6 years ago...they've since redone the whole place and it's gorgeous.....just very pricey. We're getting married at Land's End in Sayville (on the bay next to the Sayville ferry). It's the same food (caterers)and just been totally redone also, but more fitting with our budget. You should try it as an alternative if Flowerfield is too expensive....

I've been to several sites in Long Island and Queens and I have to tell you it's a toss up b/w The Coral House and The Douglaston Manor. The Coral House has very good food, we went for a taste test and fell in love. We also walked the grounds and they were pretty clean and well taken care of. As for the rooms we were a bit iffy on them because we are not having that many guest and the rooms they offered were small. Although we may not meet the required 100 even if we have 90 I feel the room they suggested will not comfortably fit all of our guest. The banquet manager Neil was very pleasant, cooperative and patient w/ us. Your in good hands I checked them out w/ the BBB and they have an excellent report. The best of Good Luck! Let us know how everything turned out.

They tried to order a dress that was two sizes too large for me (I know the dresses run small but give me a break I'm not that stupid). I had to insist on them ordering the size I wanted. Luckily I was right, otherwise the alterations necessary would have been like making a new dress. I think they did that to try to get more money by making it a plus size dress.I ended up having my dress altered elsewhere because they wanted to do the first fitting the week of the wedding.
