For those of you that are taking (or took) pictures at your reception hall before the ceremony.... what did you plan in case of rain? I'm just assuming it's going to be nice, so we would plan to take pictures on the grounds, but I should have a back up plan. I know there is another affair going on during the day at my venue. I'm just not sure we can do them inside...they have a small lobby area

Re: Pictures inside if it rains...
ya know...didn't even think about this at all!
I know Fox Hollow does more than 1 function at a time, but we'll probably just squeeze in wherever we can. If it even looks like it would rain that week I'm going to get cool gold umbrellas for FH/myself and our BP - I wouldn't mind going outside in a drizzle. Maybe we can all bring our rainboots, too - I've seen some cute pics like that.

The did say that the staff can follow us w umbrellas and a blanket but who knows.

I worried about this same thing. I booked the grounds and inside the Vanderbilt Mansion for pictures this way we'd be covered either way.
Christine, maybe see if you can take pictures at the Carriage house in case of rain? That might make for nice pictures or what about at the pond that's right there under those great big trees?

When we were looking there we inquired about this . They have a small studio inside upstairs ...

Pam, do you mean the Country House in Stony Brook? or the Carriage House in Babylon? The Country House is right up the road from 3VI!
They do have a gazebo across the street right near the boats... I'll take cloudy at this point, just not downpouring!! haha

I have no backup. Maybe I will do pictures at the hotel (since I'm staying over the night before) and pics at the venue.

We have to have 2 plans also as we want to do the first look at an arboretum but if it rains we will probably just do all the pics at the RH.

I went to a wedding two years ago today that was in the midst of a serious monsoon - the power went out and everything! That day, the bridal party all bought super cute rain boot and giant umbrellas and they took some pictures outside. :)
