Ok I figured to create the official Westbury Manor 2008 thread for all WM brides (and those who want to peak ) because wellllll we dont have one. I did found one but its from 2003 and its over 100 pages long. So come in and enjoy. HAPPY PLANNING

That's what I'm wearing especially if I'll be snacking. I was thinking of dressing up but I'll be walking around and if it's crowded like everyone says it will be then I wan't to be comfortable. So how many of you ladies are bringing your moms and FMIL?

Yeah the Easter party at WM looks good. They have so much food.

So what did everyone think about the showcase last night. I didnt see andyone but Spelldzzy and Kite I believe I saw you but didn't want to approach you bec it may not have been you, lolol. I thought it was nice. I took a couple of pics. I love the way everything was lit up. Me and FH walked around the grounds, saw some swans, I think they were swans bathing in the river, sooooooo cute. No flowers in bloom yet but it stil looked nice. I thought the food was really good. I had alot to eat, they were always replenishing the hor'dorves. I wanted to taste them bec that is what we are getting for hor'dorvers. The mashed potatoe bar was sooooo good. The 3 fountains were goodddddd,yum yum. But I will just be sticking with my coco fountain. The others kinda taste the same but different colors, lol. The shrimps were sooooo good. I am def getting the cocktail Shrimp Ice display for the CH. Alot of vendors, alot of people. Alot of champagne and sangria, but I didnt like the sangria.

last time the bag was bigger. I still have it. But it is identical just bigger. I am sure you can use both together. But you know you can't use it on a saturday or holiday.

I had to dig up the WM 08 thread from the dead, it was on page 30 or something, hahahah.

Photography:

i DONT KNOW WHO TO CHOOSE . I want one close to Queens and I see that there are alot on Jericho Turn. which is a good thing. I really like Sherwood Triart but I am afraid when I go see them they will quote me like 10,000 bec I heard they are pricey. I dont know about Silverfox or Proline . Are these the only 3 recommended WM photographers?? Can you use another photo. that is not on the WM list? I am also afraid that if I use someone else (maybe 12th night) that the WM will restrict them from using some of the photo locations in the RH

I was told we could shoot wherever we wanted no matter who the photographer was. What is your price range on photographers? If you want a photojournalistic style, check out wpja.org and search for NY

I want photojournalism, digital, video, 2 photographers, etc etc, I want the full package to capture everything. I dont want to go over 6-7k, I dont know. I dont even know how pricing goes. But its good to know that we can choose any photo and shoot all over RH

That's all I have....sorry!!! We're not doing video since we are huge photography lovers and we know we'll never watch the video. So all my research is just on photographers.

I did come a cross a decent photographer who also offers video...he's based in manhattan, but i think he travels (with a fee though).

5 west studios
