Help!! I'm so confused

I'm usually really good at making hard decisions but I really need help picking out where I'm having my reception. I just want to pick one already!!! The choice boils down to Carlyle on the Green or NY Botanical Gardens.

My FH and I have always loved the NY BG.
+Gourmet food.
+Gorgeous grounds.
+Very elegant.
+Always dreamed of having reception there.
+15 minutes over the Throgg's Neck from church.
-Small dance floor.

Carlyle
+Incredible food
+large dance floor.
+Elegant
-40 minutes from church
-will probably take pics at another site.

Both are just about = in price.

I've posted before about the Botanical Gardens and I don't know if many have been but, any advice would be helpful!!!

If you're always dreamed of NY BG, why go anywhere else? And, speaking like a guest, I'd rather travel only 15 minutes between church and hall. (Although, it all depends on where the hotels are too if I'm OOT) JMO

I agree.

I would do NYBG !!!!!!! if the small dance floor bothers you see if you can bring a dance floor in that is bigger

You can't go wrong with either place. The upside is that the NYBG is closer and you can take pictures right on site-very convenient and beautiful all around.
