People who know the Holbrook/Farmingville area...
Alright, I'm having a hard time with this.
As some of you know. We're having our ceremony in October but doing our reception on a completely different day in a different state.
However, after the ceremony... I don't want to just send people on their way.
I need to find a space to rent out so that we can have dessert and drinks and just sort of chill for like an hour or so afterwards.
My church has a basement but they won't rent it out.
There's a fire department across the street with a hall but they will only rent it out to me 30 days beforehand and there's no guarantee that they won't be using it for something themselves.
There's a K of C and VFW nearby but they want to charge me $750 and $450 respectively JUST to have the room open for a few hours.
... this just seems ludacris.
Does ANYONE know ANY PLACE that I can rent out... for maybe 40 people that won't charge me an arm and a leg?
I am avoiding getting a private room at a restaurant if at all possible. I do not want to sit down to a meal. End of story. LOL.
I don't care what sort of place it is. I just want a room that I can bring a cake to and cut it and serve it and be on my way an hour later. We're chilling with our OOT guests at the hotel bar that evening.
(And yes the hotel has a room we can rent, but won't let us bring outside food in and again... the lowest price package they'd give me .... I might as well have it at a restaurant.)
It can be a dive bar for all I care.
Helllllllllllllp.![]()
