Sounds so complicated. I don't even want to think of table groupings, etc. Sounds very stressful. But you are getting married in 2 weeks - how exciting!

It wasn't as hard as I though, mostly people grouped together well, but it is more of where to put the groups that is an issue.

Re: Official Milleridge Thread!
Hi Ladies,
How far in advance should you start planning the flowers. My wedding is next september and i was thinking of making an appointment with the milleridge florist next week. It that to early?
Also, when should I go to the bakery for the cake?

Milleridge Carriage House
Hello Milleridge Brides!
This website is absolutely great! I've read and taken note of the great advice, but I have a couple of questions that maybe y'all can help me with. I will be having my reception at the CH next September and that's pretty much all of I've taken care of. Well, that's half true. I have the church and my dress (it just needs to get altered). But, I'm mostly concerned with chosing a florist, a photographer, a DJ and a limo company. As you can all probably tell, I'm pretty new to all of this. So, I was hoping that maybe some of you can share with me your experiences and possibly a bit about what the prices should be for the forementioned services. I really don't know what florists quote for flower arrangements, and what photographers prices should be for a sensible package. I am really hesitating on asking these questions to a vendor because I don't want the vendor to think I'm gullible and take advantage of that. Thank you so much and I look forward to hearing from you guys!

I blocked rooms at the Holiday Inn in Plainview and got a rate of $99/night. Not sure if that varies by day of the week or month. So far they've been good to work with (Laurie is my contact there). And it's not like a regular crappy Holiday Inn. It's a hotel (as opposed to a motel) with a really nice lobby, a restaurant and a bar. I recommend at least checking them out.

Re: Official Milleridge Thread!
I was wondering if any one could share prices? I'm interested in august 6, 2006 which is a sunday or july 3, 2006 which is a monday. Either sunday afternoon or monday night, depending on which is more affordable. Expecting 63 people. I'm interested in 1 star menu. thanks. you can fm if you like.

Re: Official Milleridge Thread!
Did anyone get direction cards from the Milleridge for their invitations? I emailed Leslie about it this morning, haven't heard back yet.

No but that's eerie timing, I have to contact Nadine about it shortly. Do you know what color they are? I'm hoping off white (or at least have that option) but I have a feeling they're white only.

Not a clue. I'll ask Leslie if/when she replies to my email and let you know though.
