I am booking a hall TOMORROW!!!!!!!

I went to visit three places today, Douglaston Manor, Floral Terrace and Woodbury Country club.

Douglaston Manor just wasn't for us so we didn't think twice about it.

We then took the ride to Floral Terrace which was absolutely PERFECT for me and Jesse. We loved it, we loved Frank the banquet manager and YES We are booking it tomorrow! <3 I fell in love everything about it. He is throwing in a few extras and it is costing me a decent price. WE decided to change the date but it is all good. It is a beautiful place, 1 affair so the entire hall is ours, in our price range for what we are getting. We are getting married October 12th, 2008! A bit sooner than we planned.

Westbury Manor was beautiful and they treated us great BUT they were showing us around while 2 parties (a wedding) was going on. I was walking around and ended up in one of the pictures of a guest. I thought to myself, I would NEVER want people to walk around my wedding like that. The place was absolutely gorgeous and the price reasonable for what they offered.

But like I said from the beginning, Floral Terrace is the place for ME and FH!!! We are so excited.

YAAAAAAAYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!! Another Floral Terrace bride!!!!! Congrats!!!!!!! I have never heard anything bad about the place, so don't worry!!! Don't you just love it?!!!

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT! I cried when I walked in the room because it was the only room that I thought was perfect! and the banquet manager told me 'You are supposed to act like you hate it' I said 'I know but I cant fake this!!!!! HAHA'

Having the whole place to ourselves also made it even better!! I cant wait to go there today to see it all set up for a wedding! I was so excited last night I didn't sleep very well!

Re: I am booking a hall TOMORROW!!!!!!!

very exciting- yes definitely take pictures- i heard only great things about floral terrace. Afriend of mine got married there last year & said they do great weddings there- the service, food, staff were superb! no negative things!!! i'm so happy for u!!!! Dont worry i didnt book the church yet- i'm slow. We are in the process- but the halls book faster than the church. I had to book the hall asap b/c there werent that many dates left in june for clm.
