The Meadow Club in Port Jeff. We were actually on our way out there to book it and we decided to stop by the Fox Hollow one final time just to make sure we were making the right choice. When we walked into the second time we just knew that it was where we wanted to have our wedding.

The Pierre Hotel - Just couldn't handle the tab though...

Maybe we'll spend our wedding night there - that is if FH ever plans on telling me -

We never had a second choice because since we had a small wedding our choices were limited. We went to the Three Village Inn just as a fluke to see how nice it was but thought it was way out of our range. When we found out it wasn't we booked right away.

If i was having a larger wedding, I would have went to Villa Lombardis.

Stonebridge Country Club, a little out of our price range though.

flowerfields or the old farmhouse across the street from flowerfields (the mills pond house). also, we considered smithtown landing country club a lot. but we went with the thatched cottage.

I was in love with Oheka and Flowerfield, but with the minimums and prices, our budget and guest list just couldn't handle it. I was also really interested in the Vanderbilt Mansion, but was worried b/c they were doing some remodling and I just didn't want to chance it.

All worked out for the best though - I love Vineyard Caterers! :o)

I really didn't have a #2 either, i wanted it at Westbury Manor!!!

But we went to see Fox Hollow just to look at other options (FH being his practical self) and I really loved it there too. But WM was my dream place, and FH fell in love with it too. He said maybe if we didn't see WM first, he would have picked Fox Hollow.

The Woodlands was #2

but if we had had a smaller wedding, it would have been Oheka or Raphael

if it had been a *much* smaller wedding, we would have had it at a fancy NYC restaurant

I only had one choice since the age of 15 and this is where I got married...at the Glen Island Harbour Club. If I had to choose another location, I would rethink having it in the city....maybe the Essex House?
