Taking pictures at Old Westbury Gardens. I am unfamilair with the area, and wanted to know what it is like. Is there somewhere to take pics inside b/c it is 350 dollars to rent the lot for pics... I am going broke by the minute.

I spoke with Diana Filbry at OWG and was able to go by one day to tour the gardens. Wear comfortable but no so nice shoes as each garden has distance between it and watch out for the duck poop in some areas.
Good luck!
ETA:
If it is raining on your wedding day you take the pictures indoors. Check out their website for more info.
We're taking our wedding pics at OWG. If I remember correctly we are paying $275 for 90 minutes. We are going at 2PM. As the day goes on the prices get higher. I think It starts at $250 and goes up to $500. I could be wrong though. I found Diana Filbry and her assitant to be very easy to work with.
My photog has done a ton of wedding pics there and we loved how everything looked.
FM me if you need more info.

I am taking my wedding pics there...you basically pick a time slot for the day of and they give you an employee to walk you thru to all the areas. If it rains they let you come inside to take pics so you are ok there. There prices range on the time frame you choose...Prices are below

$100 deposit due when you reserve and the balance is due 8 weeks before date
This might be a silly question, but what if you paid for the 9-3 slot and end up staying until 3:30 forwhatever reason...they'll make you pay the diff?

There is a permit fee and then I think there is another fee to actually take the pictures there. There is an inside room where you can take pictures. It is nice, very grand, I think the walls may be red.

WOW. Vanderbilt in Centerport is $300 to have the indoors and outdoors and I think $200 for just outdoors...no matter what time of day! and our deposit was only $50 and the balance isn't due until 2 weeks before!

All of the slots are an hour and a half...so they all start at the top of the hour and half past...so if you started at 3 you would be there until 430...did that help?
