Wish I could help but I don't know LI like that so don't know whats around But I plan to do the same as the bride said above. I'm not so sure about hotel blocks because I won't really have OOT guests but as the wedding gets a little closer i'm going to see if anyone will want to crash somewhere close buy after the wedding. If enough people tell me yes i'm going to do a hotel block. If not I still plan to get a room in a nearby hotel to get ready and for the wedding night.

I am also staying at a hotel for 2 nights. My FH and I live together, so he's going to get ready from here... I like the hotel idea, i'm hoping to get a suite. I'll have the hair and make up girl come to the hotel .. is that what you mean?? If so, I live in W. Islip..I'll try to think of places for you to look!

My sister got married in Sayville and stayed in Islandia in a hotel and then her RH was the same as yours, Westbury Manor. She only had one limo which picked up both the guys, then dropped them off, then got the girls. Why are they saying you need two? Did you think about maybe staying somewhere in the middle?

I will say she didn't have much time for pictures since it was such a long drive and we missed the entire CH for pics which were all inside by then because it was late Oct and was dark by the time we got to the RH,.

Re: Need some help....

I understand it gets frustrating to think about all the details... I'm having issues w/ limo and picture times etc. b/c we are not seeing each other before the ceremony.

My advise for now, is to wait it out a little. If you are getting married in 2013 you have time to decide and really think everything through. Come up with a few different scenerios and review with your FH and pick whatever works best for the two of YOU, not everyone else (including your bridal party). They can always bring their bags in the limo (I just did that for a wedding I was in).

Also, check with a few limo companies when you are ready, b/c there is no reason you need 2 limos. Find a company that puts you at ease with everything.

Hang in there!! It will work out!

Re: Need some help....

Also, can one of your bridemaids offer their house for you to get ready? Just a thought....
