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
I have a 3rd party WM super mini review....maybe more of a suggestion...
My uncle said he went to a wedding there the other day and said everything was very good but he was really suprised how they set things up. Maybe this will help you when planning your weddings....he said that they used the long library room for their CH and they had food set up at the bottom of the 2-3 steps that go down into the room and that was the only place they had plates. So when people were trying to get into the CH, there was a massive traffic jam at the entrance because people couldnt get in the room. He also said that the room that the reception was in didnt have a bar in it. A lot of guests (including him and my aunt) had no idea where to get a drink, they just had the waiter get it (he said they were really fast btw so thats really good to hear) but it was really confusing why they didnt have a rolling bar in the room. I dont know if this is helpful or not, but I wanted to share the info. HTH!
Hey Ticky! I won the menu upgrade!!! I got the gift certificate in the mail today!! I was so happy when I got the phone call that I won something. Last time I didnt win anything.

Yeah the small room has no bar. It's outside where they have the Ch for it. It's weird.

Thanks for the review, the reception was prob in the Garden (little room) because they dont have a bar in there, but in the bigger room there is a bar. I beleive we are having a rolling bar for mine. I will be having my CH outside (hopefully the weather is nice) so there will be plenty of room for people, if not I will talk to my BM on how they set things up

Reallyyyyy, I didnt know that, YAYYYYY, thats even better
I just booked my wedding at WM a week ago and I'm so excited I love the place. Mel is the most adorable man ever!
I'm having it on a Sunday night in May 2009 Reception hour is in the Garden room but he also gave us the Library to use in case anyone wants to 'chill out' for a little while. Also for the coctail hour he gave us the restaurant with the big round bar and the glass atrium room.
I missed the show in March but I will be to the one in June!!!
I love this forum and just wanted to introduce myself - Heather
Does anyone have ideas where I can get really cute cards or ideas to oficially ask people to be in our bridal party...like Will you be my bridesmaid?

Hello and Welcome!! WM is such a beautiful place!! Mel David is my bm also! As for the cards, you can make them yourself if you want. I did it, you can look in my album, and I knew many brides on here have made their own as well!
YAYYYYYYYYYY another WM bride. Isnt it just wonderful there, CONGRATSSSSSS . YOu can ask your bridal party with designer cookies with saying on them like 'Will you be my BM?' I think that is kinda cute
Thank you spell dizzy - yours look adorable. I was thinking that I might be able to do something with stuff from AC Moore ...Did you have a specific saying inside the cards?
I just stopped by the Westbury Manor today and met with Felicia, I wanted to add on my martini bar and 3 fountains... she gave me a great deal! Plus she gave me a wonderful idea for my favors, she's awesome I love her! I was just so excited to stop by there while I was home... I love that place so much!
Luv, I am so glad you had a good visit and you got a great deal on your add-ons. I am going to make an appointment to meet with my BM and add on also. I cant wait. I def have to have the 3 fountains, I got the chocolate one for free so hopefully she will give me a good deal on the caramel and white coco, its sooo worth it. And I have to have the seafood boat. I want to go at the end of April so I can see how they have it set up for Spring.
Just to let you girls know if you don't know already. If you were at the showcase and received a $25 off coupon for the resturant it expires on May1st so make sure you go and use it!!!

Yeah I got one at the showcase and I also got one when I booked. Can I combine them? If not I can go twice, lol. I think its closed on a Sunday? Right??
I don't think you can combine them. But make sure you use it before may 1st. I just noticed it said that last night so Fh is gonna make a resevation for us to go maybe this week sometime. ANd then I also have the dinner for 2 I won there also. So were gonna use tha tone later on cause it won't expire for 1 year.
