I need location suggestions from all you knowledgable brides!

I'm new here, but have been on LIF for a while. My fiance and I have decided to get married just the two of us on a beach in Maui in September.

Afterwards, we are going to come to NY and have a 'Meet the Newlyweds' party on LI, since that's where I'm from and since most of my family is still there.

What I'm looking for is a location that's not quite as big of a deal as a traditional wedding reception hall, but maybe not just a restaurant (unless it has an event room). Something for about 70 people, maybe with room for a DJ/dancing. AND it needs to be available September 26th or October 3rd.

I know you probably can't help with availability, but does anyone have any location suggestions?

Thanks Ladies

I think the Inn at New Hyde Park has a room for almost any occasion. The room they do showers in is gorgeous and I could see that transformed for this type of event. It also has access to the outside patio space. GL!

You could call the Milleridge banquet office -- the Carriage House is more equipped for that size group, or the Milleridge Inn also has several rooms that could be used for a party like that. They have been wonderful to work with, and their food is fantastic!

Try the Three Villiage Inn-They have a small room to the right when you walk in away from the restaurant part. It's on the water and lots of place to take pics. I think its for under 100 people.

westbury manor has a small room upstairs. it's very private which is what i liked best about it. there's plenty of room for a dj and a dance floor too.

george washington manor also has rooms of all different sizes that can accomodate what you're looking for.

Larkfield Manor has a smaller room that holds up to 120. We used that for our reception and had 80 people and it was wonderful for that. their guarantee for a Sunday nite for us was 60 people so that might work for you. food is so so good and people easy to work with.

Well I know you dont want to do a RH but Leonards smallest room holds like 80-90 and its beautiful and depending on the month really affordable!

Theres 'Four Food Studio' Its a restaurant and Im almost positive they have an extra space for parties. I know they have their own djs because on Friday and Saturday nights they have a dj and dancing so I dont know if you could bring one in or they would ask you to use him. Food is good and a cool, modern looking restaurant.

There's Louies in Port Washington and its on the water and beautiful! ITs a seafood restaurant. There's a private room that Ive been in before. Im pretty sure 70 people could fit.

Theres Verdis, one in Whitestone and one in Westbury. Both restaurants that do a lot of events in sepate spaces.

Re: I need location suggestions from all you knowledgable brides!

do you have a specific location in mind?

Many of the catering halls have a small room available but I think what you are looking for is more of a restaurant, here are a few you can try.

George Martins in Douglaston
Dominico's in Levittown
La Piazza in Merrick
Donovan's in Bayside
Parkside in Carona
Wickers in Hicksville
NoVita in Garden City
