Help for a new bride- UPDATE!!!!!

My best friend is getting married for the 2nd time. She is only 26 and can't really afford to have another big wedding. I am working with her and trying to find a solution to her dilemma.

She lives in the Bronx and is willing to travel a bit to get a really good price for an intimate wedding. She is very upset and still wants to have all of the special things that brides go through (cake cutting, first dance). Unfortunately, my rather large wedding is making her feel like she should go crazy and spend money she definitely does not have. Both her and her husband have been married before and have 3 children between the two of them.

I love her dearly and don't want to see her spend $30,000 that she clearly does not have. Does anyone have any suggestions on a place in the Weschester, Queens, Long Island area?

Thanks!



**UPDATE**

My friend has decided to get married in Key West!!! After some soul and pocket searching, she made a really good decision to have it on the pier there.....here is the link to the hotel:

She is planning to get married in April of 07, so she has plenty of work to do. Next are the bridesmaids dresses!!!

Thanks again for all of your help!!!!!
