Its funny you mentioned the martini bar b/c i was going to ask about that. Do you think they will throw it in? and exactly what is the difference w/ the martini bar? The VH Hour I was going to add on but am a little skeptical on adding it because we are having the wedding on Labor Day which is the Monday last day of the holiday weekend and as of right now reception is ending at 11:30, so that would make it end at 12:30. Do you think that's too late??

yeah look at the extras page in the binder they gave you - try to get some of those things thrown in - we the got martini bar during CH, we got the VH for a much lower price pp with the chocolate fountain for free, and we got some christmas time extras thrown in for the VH also (like christmas type cookies and egg nog), we also go t the pasta duet for dinner but i want to change that to bagels at the end of the night (since its the same price per person im hoping they will switch it for me)
good luck!

im sure they would change it, shouldn't be a problem. I never discussed the pasta duet with them, didnt even know about it lol but when i arrived the day of, our maitre'd told us about some things he different and said he did the pasta duet for us, i didnt get to eat it but looked great. Then instead of potato croquette he asked the chef to do something different.
to the op, i said to ask for extra ice sculptures but actually ask to throw that in PERIOD lol, bc in their book you'll see they charge for this but you can get it for free
Yeah we have the free ice sculpture already. What happened is that the BM that I originally sat w/ was holding a dte for us b/c I was waiting to hear back from the church as to whether or not they can have my ceremony on Monday. So once I heard that they could my FH went to JT and dropped off the deposit for that day b/c another bride was interested. so they faxed him a contract w/ the regulars. But we are going in today to sit down officialy w/ our BM to go over the specifics and extras. So i just want to make sure i cover everything tonight when we get our final price.
They will also add something in for free if you use their vendors. They give you a list to choose from after you sign the contract when you meet with their wedding planner.
Who are you ladies working w/ at the hall if you don't mind me asking?
We met w/ Anthony and he seems pretty nice.

I think that martini's are made at the regular bar anyway try to have something u cant get somewhere else thrown in. Like the fountains or seafod boat etc.
