I WAS hunting for one this morning, but my gut said Villa's was the place for us! We talked to a few people, talked to the Banquet Mgr and got her to throw in a few extras...and we are content! I am so happy!

Congrads...
if you don't mind, what kinda extras did you get thrown in? I didn't get anything extra or couldn't get the price down on Crest Hollow...
makes me kinda sad to see others work the price and get extra displays or an ice scuplture....

That's it?! Just ask?? Wow - I am planning on booking mine at the end of the month and was thinking about my approach. My FFIL is the best negotiator, but would be very proud of myself if I could do it... So you just said 'Is there anything extra you can give us??' Tre Impressed...

We just said 'What can we do to negotiate on the cost?' Sometimes you can raise your minimum....we didnt have to...but we DID have to change our date. Once we realized our original date wasnt available, we said 'what can you do for us as far as price if we decide to change our date?' Honestly, don't be afraid to ask! It was a lot easier than we thought. Don't be afraid to ask!
