Well since no one else wanted to do it, I decided to.

For those of you having your reception at the Watermill, which room are you going to be in?

And are you going to the Showcase 8/3??

Also..will your ceremony be there?

Ah ha, so when prestige I don't get some stations, the martini bar, seafood boat and viennese hour. I wonder how much more a person that would have been.

Re: Official 2006 Watermill Thread

I think the seafood boat is 10 to 15 more per person (not including tax and gratuities. When you have over 150 guests that can add up to $2250 plus $450 for tax and gratiuties!

Brian told us we can decide what additions we want to add up to two weeks before the wedding. But honestly - if we have some money left over, I'd rather use it on our honeymoon for splurges.

Yeah I knew that part, but I wonder what the savings would have been if the whole menu was just upgraded instead.

I don't mind because I think I have enough CH food, but it would have been nice if the other menu was offered too.

Re: Official 2006 Watermill Thread

You can always ask... Say you want to upgrading your menu and what would the entire menu cost, chew them down, and then you can get the actual cost.

Or maybe another Watermillie can answer how much they paid per plate??

Now I'm curious.

the gourmet menu is +45pp the standard prestige menu (no add-ons - bc the gourmet has everything added on - except the choc fountain)

So - for June of 2007 - its $164pp - thats before negiotating of course

I believe prestige menu doesn't include seafood boat, martini bar, and viennese hour.
So you have to pay extra for that.

But if you have deluxe menu.. I think it's already included but I am not sure though.

so Watermill has 3 different menus
Gourmet , prestige, and deluxe.
and deluxe is the most expensive one.

No, the gourmet is the most expensive one. I was at the Watermill last week to make a payment and happened to ask if the gourmet was the best, most expensive menu. The BM that I was speaking with said that the Gourmet Menu is 'top of the line'.

Re: Official 2006 Watermill Thread

That's fine that I have the cheapest menu because IMO it's still a lot of food. Just wondering why the 2 other menus weren't options when I booked..that's all.

Re: Official 2006 Watermill Thread

What is the cheapest menu ? Does anyone know what it includes?

TIA!

For the brides getting married outdoors at the Watermill, do you remember what your BM said about flowers being provided by the hall? I can't remember now if he said they provide the ones in the 'chapel' area.

Yes they will provide the flowers for everyone's who use their chapel and the runner for inside chapel.
They will provide flowers and music for CH too.

Hi! Bruce is my BM. I heard that that dish is great too! I think that is going to be my poultry choice.
I will let everyone know my choices when I pick them :)

I think they were sending out a letter but I called first. My parents are away for 2 weeks and I wanted to get it done before they left. I think I am a little early... at least I can get my menu's printed earlier!
