Re: FOX HOLLOW BRIDES - Question & Answer Thread

I am seriously thinking of booking Fox Hollow, when you went in to sign the contract and pay, were you able to negotiate anything, like minimums, extras thrown in?

We really *ok, FH really* want the sushi at the cocktail hour, but it may take the hall out of our price range.

any advice?

you can try to talk them down or having them thrown in extras... i know i had the chocolate fountain,, vienesse trays. and wine on the tables.. all thrown in!! if you guys really wanted the sushi.. im sure they will help you out with that ... if thats what will take to get you to book!! HTH

ETA... spelling

If you book on an off-day, like Sunday afternoon, and an off-time of year, such as March, they seem to be more likely to throw things in. Someone here got the seafood boat thrown in - which is an additional $15 pp - so the sushi thing is probably doable. It also depends on who your banquet manager is and what kind of a mood there are in ... good luck!

hi there friends....

I am getting married at fox hollow on june 8th 2008

I definately want to get a cake from an outside vendor....

I only put down the deposit..... and I was wondering if I should tell them that I don't want them to provide me with a credit.... before I pay.... the next installment

I dont want them to be angry...
