Honestly, I am beyond tired and stress I just want to pick a RH and call it a day. My wedding is suppose to be in April 2011, so I don't have much time. So this weekend, I am going to go to Chatea La Mer, Riveria, and Bellport Country Club. Is there any other places I should check out before I make up my mind. I have already look at Westbury Manor, Jericho Terrance, Fox Hollow, Swan Club, Windows on the Lake, Bridgeview, Coral House, Crest Hollow.
I want a nice garden and/or lake/ pond but unique RH.

Good Morning, Ladies
Honestly, I am beyond tired and stress I just want to pick a RH and call it a day. My wedding is suppose to be in April 2011, so I don't have much time. So this weekend, I am going to go to Chatea La Mer, Riveria, and Bellport Country Club. Is there any other places I should check out before I make up my mind. I have already look at Westbury Manor, Jericho Terrance, Fox Hollow, Swan Club, Windows on the Lake, Bridgeview, Coral House, Crest Hollow.

I know how you feel. I've seen like 40 places and just want to pick one. there is also crestwood manor, though no lake or pond there. villa lombardis. majestic gardens further out. woodbury cc. watermill. those are really all I can think of that would have gardens/lake/pond either of those.

CHeck out the Sans Soucci too - they have pretty grounds and are on the water. The was my 2nd choice - we booked the Riviera and are really happy with them.

Re: I AM TIRED, PLEASE HELPPPPPPPPPP
I know EXACTLY how you feel! When i got engaged in June I bought the Wedding sites and services book and went through it cover to cover, twice. Then found reviews on places and made my 'RH list to see'. It was like 30 places! We don't really have a 'budget', but the cut off was a place that can hold 250-300 people. Although we have plenty of time until the wedding, i am a doctor and only have 1 maybe 2 weekends a month to go look at places, to time is pretty limited. After seeings 5-6 RHs or so, we were really disappointed. After seeing the Greentree we were starting to get mad (they were rude!). We recently saw The Sand Castle and LOVE it! My FH wants to book them already, but we still have 15 places to see. I crossed ALOT off my list (took off fox hollow, and pretty much every place in NJ and CT), but there is still 3 or 4 i wanna rule out before booking sand castle.
I'm sorry i don't have any reccomendations, but i'm here for moral support!!

Re: I AM TIRED, PLEASE HELPPPPPPPPPP
try not to get so caught up with the outside. mother nature might not be your friend the day of.
imo food and indoor decor is whats most important
good luck

Re: I AM TIRED, PLEASE HELPPPPPPPPPP
A garden and a pond might be tough... is this the most impt thing to you and FH? I only asks this because you may be able to narrow down your decision on other factors like location, price, 1 bride at a time, etc...
Of the places you mentioned I have been to WM, FH and Windows...
WM has beautiful gardens, Windows has the entire Lake Ronkonkoma in front of it with huge windows facing it, and I don't remember if FoxH has any ponds, or a garden but they had really cute areas to take pics...
Hope this helps.

Don't get stressed, you will find your place! I only booked mine and i am less than a year away also.
Giando's On the Water in Bk is beautiful! And Crescent Beach Club!! I looked at a few you mentioned also. We chose Land's End, I only remember them having one day in April though and that was over a month ago....
Good Luck.....

CLM is amazing!!!!!!!!!! The staff, service, ambiance, food is greaaaaaaaat! People keep commenting on how our wedding was one of the best they have ever been. YOu cant go wrong there.
If you want water views, I would also look at the Rivera, and Bridgeview. Dont rush. We planned a wedding in 8 months and got everything we wanted! You have time :) DOntsettle.
