I just called them and were given an AMAZING price for October
sooo I'm trying to call FH (who answered and hung up on me, then forwards all my calls to voicemail ) to see if he wants to go there tomorrow.... but before I go making an appointment I figured (once again ) I'd ask you ladies your views and opinions on them.
I've never been there, I've only seen a few pictures online, so I don't know what to expect.
How's the food? how's the decor? anyone have pictures?

PLEASE HELP!

thank you soooo much!!!!

*sorry for the constant posts, I just need HELP!

I have been there for a sweet 16. The food was delicious. The staff was nice and friendly. If I remember the CH room is downstairs and can get a bit tight if you have too many people. Go in and check it out, I took a look at it but it just wasnt the place for me.
Oh one good thing about them is that you can schedule a food tasting on the spot before you book with them. Then you can have a good idea about what you are getting.

I have been there for a wedding a couple of years ago. It wasn't a big wedding so I felt the room was the perfect size. The cocktail hour room was very tiny. Alot of people were standing and everyone was on top of eachother. The food I don't really remeber sorry.

We're having between 150 and 185, do you think it'll be too small?

i'm sorry i can't help with the westbury location, but our church is literally two blocks from the one in whitestone so we checked it out last friday and we loveed it. they gave us an amazing price that includes sooooo much and they are renovating the whitestone one so most of the guests that have been there already won't have seen the new way it looks. so i think we will be booking there in a couple of weeks. i just wanted to wish you luck and hope you and FH are both sold when you go!

Re: ok, let's try Verdi's of westbury

no i'm sure the two locations rooms are the same or similar and the room we liked he said held up to 180, and i could be wrong but i think there's a bigger room than that too

i hope so... we don't want to be cramped into a room... and we could have as many as 200 guests, we're inviting a little over 200.... ::sigh:: i HOPE this place works out... I had a good feeling all last night, but now I'm nervous.

Re: ok, let's try Verdi's of westbury

don't be nervous!! i hope it works out too. i'm having only about 50-75 people and i'm worried they'll stick us in the small room where i knooow we will be cramped, so i know how you feel. good luck and update after!!

Do they give prices over the phone? I called the one in Whitestone and they told me they had no bridal suite. Never got a chance to look at the one in Westbury

yea, they gave us the same quote over the phone as they did in person (most places we went to up'd the price when we got there)
the one in whitestone does not have a bridal suite, it says that on their website. But the guy said they are re-doing whitestone, westbury was just redone... infact they're still putting little things in (like custom mirrors and molding). and they're trying to get an elevator installed, so hopefully before my wedding it'll be done.
