They have a lot of rooms, depending on what size wedding you're having. They're all really nice. Do you know who you're going to see?

pay very close attention to the actual rooms. the banquet office area is really nice and in my opinion more updated than the rooms itself and sometimes you can get distracted by the great price and the nice area downstairs.

Let us know how it goes

Re: Leonard's of Great Neck -- QUESTIONS FOR TONIGHT

When I went there honestly the price was what caught me and it is pretty in some areas. I agree that some rooms could use a little updating. Don't let them **** you in with the price. If I remember correctly there can be maybe 4 events at one time. There probably won't be but ask if they stagger events, ask about extras that can be thrown in, ask about cocktail hour centerpieces, ask about linens to see if they can match your color scheme (especially if you don't plan on renting linens). Ask about prices for kids in your wedding party and vendors (photographer, video) find out if they are a discounted rate. Ask about the cake. I guess these are minor things but they also help you calculate additional expenses that go a long with the RH

i thought u were booked at Westbury Manor?
Leonards is my hall - I suggest you ask for Antonio. he is very professional and knowledgable about your wants/needs.
I booked Leonards based on price and location (most of my family is in Queens).

Leonards is known for being a wedding factory, so unfortunately be prepared to deal with feeling like a number. There are at least 4 rooms on the first floor and probably another 4-5 rooms upstairs on the 2nd. The decor may be over-the-top but in pictures, the effect of the decor is quite stunning.

I checked out Leonards and most RH's alone, and then brought FH with me on 2nd visits.

oh and prices are ALWAYS negotiable. I worked w/ Antonion on my minimums because he originally had me at a 70 person min but I negotiated it down to 50.

I am 99% sure this is where I am booking. I fell in love with it and love the look of it when you pull up. Did you taste the food yet? I think we are going in January to do that. We are going back next week to look witj families...
