Did any of you girls use Gina from jericho terrace? She told me she does coordinating for free. I was just curious.

Re: Going to Jericho terrace today, UPDATED w/Pics

OMG Summer Bride..you outdid yourself..those pics came out really nice.

My tasting was good...My parents, FI, and I went and they served us a cold anitpasta, some fried HD's, our entree was a chicken dish, and they gave us creme brulee..the cb was really good! I went on a Sunday afternoon.

I still have to pic out my cake..I have to call Mike Closs today to arrange that. He said that new styles came out.

Also, I thought that there was a bar in the dome room??

EDITED: I met with Gina once..she tried to have us use the house vendors, which kind of annoyed me, but she is good if you are trying to look for something..for instance, I called her when I needed a place for chair cvrs and when I was looking for a Cigar Roller..

Too bad one of you guys are not having their wedding the same day as mine..that would have been fun.

Re: Going to Jericho terrace today, UPDATED w/Pics

I keep waiting to see on here if someone is having theirs the same day as mine. I would like to at least speak with them before the day.

I didn't use Gina, but I did visit some of their vendors.

Who is everyone's BM?

My BM is Frank Pacheco.
Nope haven't picked out my cake yet. Dortoni's is the bakery they use right? I went there the other day to find out about a groom's cake and they told me to bring a pic of what I wanted and they should be able to do it for me, maybe a little extra depending on how extravagent.

Has anyone had any problems up to this point. Especially you Jozie anything to complain about?

Re: Going to Jericho terrace today, UPDATED w/Pics

its great to hear from all of you girls! the pictures were awesome, thanks so much!! I wonder if we could request the bars be put in different locations? Anna Cameron is our BM. we havent had any problems as of yet With the cakes, do they just give you samples that you can pick from, or can you bring in a picture of what you want?? are all of you girls in the dome room?? We met w/ gina once because it seemed like that was the 'next step' after booking our date. It is nice that she is there, but she did make it seem like the sun rose and set on these vendors (thank god I found you guys to open my eyes lol) we went to meet w/ two of their vendors and one we didnt like AT ALL and the other was ok, but way expensive. she also made it seem like we had to use her for invites, it was like ok so when youre ready come to me and ill do everything lol. what made u guys book the hall?? for us it was totally the cocktail hour room, and then the dome room. we liked the 7 options at dinner too!!! do u know if they provide menus?? ok that is it for now! look forward to hearing from you all!
edited to add: jozie.... are u getting the chair covers?? if so could u give me info on it?? and the cigar roller, i have been sooo interested in getting one, so if you could share whatever u know on those two things!!! thanks!!!

Re: Going to Jericho terrace today, UPDATED w/Pics

our minimum is 200, our list is 300 we made two lists, even though i soo didnt want to, we are going to send out about 260 invites, pray for the 20% and then hopefully send out the others. we dont want any more than 240 in the dome room, after that they would have to switch to the square tables, and i think the round look prettier in that room. i also think it would be tight w/ more than that. we are getting married on a friday night, we got the deluxe menu package, but i am not sure if that is 'standard' or not lol. in leiu of a saturday night, we went w/ friday and added the extra hour + viennese hr. i really wanted a saturday night, but we got so many extras for the same price on friday!

Re: Going to Jericho terrace today, UPDATED w/Pics

Hi Guys,
Sorry it took so long to write back, but I just logged on. I am at work and I'm so busy today. But, anyhow, I actually got the chair covers thrown into our deal, so I am not sure how much they are. I am not a fan of their chairs, so I insisted on getting those. But, if you talk to Gina, she can def. give you a cost because they are coming from JT. The covers are just a simple pin stripe that match the table cloths. As for the Cigar Roller, we are going through the Little Cigar Company...JT refered them to us and they came out to approx. $1000. I also checked another company in NJ, where my FI lives and the cost came out to about the same. I think my FI is insane for booking them (not worth it to me), but he really wanted it.

I am also getting married in the Penthouse room. The room next to the Dome Room on the top floor. I invited approx 275 and was a little nervous that it would get too tight in there...so I am also hoping for the 20% no shows.

The only negatives that I am experiencing is when you pull up a search on JT on LIW's..people have mixed reviews...what do you guys think? So far Mike has been great..he's a little sales pitchy, but we'll see. I actually expressed my concerns to him on some of the negatives that I read on this site, and he assured me that everything will be fine..so I guess the only way I will know is until after the wedding.

I will keep you girls posted on the whole cake thing. Mike is back tomorrow, so I am going to set up an appointment with him to pick one out. I will confirm with him which bakery they use because I have no idea.

Wish one of you guys was getting married the same day as me...oh well!!

EDITED: God this is sooo long..sorry guys..but I just wanted to add that you can def bring a picture in of your cake..I remember when I first met with them though they said that they can only go so far with detail..so just keep that in mind...they may charge you extra or say they can't do it..what ever.. I am bringing pics of what ever I find and going to see what they have...it doesn't hurt.

Re: Going to Jericho terrace today, UPDATED w/Pics

Re: Going to Jericho terrace today, UPDATED w/Pics

This is my first time posting! I only found LIW a few months ago (believe me, I was kicking myself once I did....) and have not yet posted, but I could not resist when I saw the Jericho Terrace thread.

I am getting married in the skylight room. Our reception is in the penthouse.

My BM is Mike Tinelli - I love him! He is so patient with us. We can never decide on anything.

We went last night to confirm the room (we had a different room originally for the reception, but then our guest list got out of control so he let us upgrade) and chose our cake. He told us they just got new designs for the cake. They look really nice. We chose a square one. There is also the option to upgrade to four other patterns they have for an extra $500.

I am so excited!! I cannot wait for it to be here. I am also happy I have finally posted something
