My mini-NEW Douglaston Manor Mansion REVIEW
I'll post a mini one now and a loooong one later.
The New Douglaston Manor Mansion was AWESOME! They exceeded my expectations by a million. They were worth EVERY penny we spent.
Let's start with my BM, SAM.
HE WAS THE BEEEEEEEEEEEEEST! I cannot say enough about him. He was on the ball since the day we booked (2 years ago) and went above and beyond for us. Everything was PERFECT, from the room, the ceremony, cocktail hour, my ice sculpture, menus, THE FOOD, the cake, and the bar. EVERYTHING was AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!! and it was because Sam knew what I wanted and made it happen. Girls if you are using SAM, you have NOTHING to worry about!!!!!
My bridal attendant Michelle
This girl was GREAT! From the moment I arrived till we were driving away this poor girl waited on me hand and foot. She even wrote us a litte letter on our cake box, it was soooo sweet!
The other Michelle at the front desk
WOW She was the one who collected all my stuff all week and was supposed to be my bridal attendant but something came up and she wasn't at work. So when FH & I sit at our dais table we see a little pink note with a glitter butterfly on it and it was an apology note from Michelle to apologize for her not being there and congrats etc. It was one of the cutest notes EVER!
THE FOOD
People are still calling my mom to tell us how GREAT the food is. I LOVED my food. FH loved it...and people raved about all the cocktail hr food, the dinner, the cake, and the chocolate fountain. AWESOME!
The Staff
Our bartenders, waiters, and runners etc......were totally awesome. I've been to so many weddings where the staff are young kids who could care less...this was NOT NOT NOT the case at Douglaston. The staff was soooo accomodating and nice.....they were always asking if we needed anything.
The room
The pics speak for themsleves......it was GORGEOUS!
