You can try the Vanderbuilt Planatarium in Centerport - I am not sure if the wedding can be indoors but it is an absolutely beautiful place.

Vanderbilt Museum in Centerport? a rented house in the Hamptons or montauk?

I'm getting married at the Queens County Farm Museum and you need to supply your own caterer. The site fee is $900.00 to rent the property all night. If you need more info-let me know!

Re: need a place that will let me bring in a caterer?
Here's a couple of places that we looked into: East Hampton Mini-Mansion The owner was asking: $70 a head (outside use only, except the bridal party which would be able to spend the weekend.)
$150 a head for indoor use.
We canned the idea cause we didn't like the thought of our guests having to use porta-potties. I believe the owner is willing to negotiate. He called us back to make another offer, but we booked the Bourne Mansion by then.
Templeton (De Seversky Conference Center)- J. Daniel Reyburn, General Manager Bob Ventresca, Sales Manager 516-626-1600 I think their site fee is around $10,000

I looked into The mini mansion in east hampton, very expensive he wanted 4,500.00 for the weekend to stay there, thats fine but then he wanted 100.00 a person. Just to come to the house nothing else included. To expensive for me.

have you looked at any of the vineyards?
There's the Vanderbilt Mansion in Centerport too.
As for the guy with the mini-mansion, he'll negotiate. He called my FH again to see what we're doing. During the 1st phone call he quoted my FH $100 pp for outside use only, but my FH got him down to $75 in a matter of 60 seconds. We would have 'bargained' some more, but settled on the Bourne Mansion. My fear was the weather. I wanted a place that I could be outdoors & indoors.
