I booked a block of 10 rooms at the hotel next door - they said I only need to book 5 in order to keep the group rate, and my parents are taking 2 of those nights.
You might want to book a small block to give people the option - I know it is pricey but a few of FH's family members (including grandpa who likes to drink!) want to stay there.
Just an idea - I also booked the Executive Inn for a cheaper option (that is where I would stay if I was attending for sure, haha)
Yeah - you need 10 rooms but only need 5 - they told me that too - but if you don't fill the 5 - you pay for them!
We booked at the Executive too...

Hey Melissas28
What do the placecards and menus look like that they give you?
Do they provide directional cards? If so, how many?
Hello,
The placecards are ivory tent cards with a green boarder. I think the fox hollow logo is on top. If I remember it doesn't say Fox Hollow on the front or anything. I have some at my parent's house, I'll try to get them soon so I can tell you for sure. The lady at the front desk has them also so next time you go, you can ask to see them.
I was already planning to do votive placecards, so I didn't use their placecards.
I don't remember what the menus look like. I didn't want to spend extra time making menus, so I used whatever they put out. I will look through photos to see if anyone took a picture of them.
They do provide directional cards, and as many as you need. They do have a little thing about the inn on the other side. But I just let everyone know where I had blocked rooms instead. No one booked rooms with the inn.
I did book with Executive Inn and my friends all loved the shuttle service. And I was happy to know that they were safe.
Let me know if you have anymore questions. I will try to answer them as best as I can.

its not even a mile down the road.. you block at least 10.. and 70% has to be filled, otherwise they will release the rest.

Thank you so much for this info!!! The question of the placecards has been answered!!!
Did you upgrade your cake?? If you did - how much credit did they give towards it? If not - was it a good cake? I've heard it's only okay....so i'm considering an upgrade...

I guess I will ask to see a sample of the menus and placecards - I want to just use whatever is free to save a little cash!!!!!
Good to hear the executive inn worked well with the shuttles, most of my guests will be crashing there.
