If I see 1 more RH, I am going to scream! Please help!
Original post by LoveyDovey
ugghhhhh
as some of you may know...FH & I have had a verrryyyy hard time finding an RH...we've prob seen at least 15
the hall is either not our taste or too expensive!
what do we do??? do we settle for something not our taste to save some $ or splurge and get the hall of our dreams?? p.s. we haven't found the hall of our dreams yet!
Here's what we saw so far
Woodbury CC Smithtown Landing Timberpoint CC Bellport CC Woodlands Chateau La Mer Riviera Land's End Bourne Mansion Vanderbilt Mansion Three Village Inn Royalton Mansion Carlyle on the Green North Ritz Club Hamlet Willow Creek Hamlet Wind Watch Giorgio's Rafael Vineyards
Top 2 places are Royalton Carlyle on the Green
but they are a lot of money
Giorgio's was nice...but not a fan of the carpet, love the outdoor area tho- we felt like Caryle was the perfect mix of the royalton and giorgios- simple and elegant ballroom of the royalton with the beautiful outdoor space of giorgios
the runner up would be North Ritz Club which is beautiful but after seeing royalton and carlyle, it feels like i'd be settling
going to prob disappoint myself and see Inn at NHP this weekend- but scared about their 175 minimum
here's our must have list...maybe you girls can help with other suggestions...
MUST BE ONE WEDDING AT A TIME- nooooo compromising on that
preferably, NO carpet!
pretty chandeliers but not gawdy
simple and elegant- no marble or crazy colors
MUST have nice grounds, outdoor ceremony and outdoor CH option

i saw in one of your older posts that you loved bourne mansion... what happened?
FH didn't like the organ in the back of the room!
he literally refuses to get married there because of this
i looooooove the bourne...it was the only reception hall that i walked into and was like 'wow this is the one'
haha aww, we could have had another bourne bride!
wow, seriously!? the organ is what i fell in love with! i think it's a gorgeous instrument and it's so grand!
i agree! i absolutely love the place! unfortunately im dealing with groomzilla!
i'm so sorry... we would have loved to have another bourne bride! i hope you find what you're looking for~

if you havent yet, you should check out Eastwind. of course there's a bit of bias here considering this wher e i'm having mine but the grounds are beautiful and me and fh really got a good deal. FM me if you want any info as far as price and things. HTH!

soo.... i just stumbled across this... but, BUT, if you are willing to look outside LI....
this place is really interesting... if you want something different...
one of my gf's brought it up to me.. if you like the rustic feel and exposed brick, you might love it...
very out of the box, but gives you a LOT of room for creativity~
I love the Foundry!! Both FH and I wanted to get married there but we have too many guests :( BUt it is absolutely beautiful! It overlook Manhattan and your pictures will be gorgeous! The inside with the bricks, just beauiful! Def check it out!

ok I know you siand one wedding at a time and you werent willing to compromise but if you just dont want to see another bride on your day then check out Jericho Terrace. Also, The Inn they do one wedding at a time but a little pricey. God Bless and hope all works out!

I know I already applied to this thread, but I was the same exact way! But we fell in love too - there's lots to love about it. Let us know how it goes there this weekend!! GL

I think Old Field Club is your place! I loved it but couldn't afford it. Kind of a weird shape w/ the dance floor at the head of the room and the bar along the dance floor, but I've attended weddings there and it was absolutely no problem whatsoever.
Good luck. Stick with it! I was in your shoes and settled on the Hamlet Willow Creek. Felt so good just to book and be done and now I'm very happy w/ my choice!

Another thought...what about Trumpets? Only holds about 130, I think. Not sure if you have more.
