I have a friend who is looking into the Oheka Castle for a July wedding. I know there is a site fee, but does anyone know the approximate per person price? She doesn't want to go there and waste anyones time if it is way too over the top.
A friend of mine priced it and for a June wedding the site fee was $11,000. I don't remember the plate price (kind of lost my hearing at that point ) And they ask for 25% up front to book the date.

10,000 site fee, at least $300 per plate-depending what day she picks-I had one of my customers ask-his friend owns Oheka.

Re: reception hall price
You can definatly negotiate over off months but summer I highly doubt they will budge......The site in the summer will probably be 10,000 and 250 pp.....We got a much much better deal cause we are in December so maybe she will be willing to switch months or maybe shes loaded and can swing it I dunno but those are the prices for this year I am looking at my paper work now HTH

I also know the Melnus (sp) family that own, Oheaka... the only difference is I was quoted $50 less, not like it mattered, the place is still out of our budget

The site fee is $10,000.00 and I am not sure about the pp price, I think it might be close to $200.00

Re: reception hall price
Depending on the time of year & day of the week, the site fee can range from $5000 - $15,000. The per plate can range from $150 - over $300. Also they are very strict which vendors they allow there.
It is a beautiful place, and offers some amazing extras.

Re: reception hall price
You would think if people refused to pay it they would bring down the price, but not nearly enough people refuse to pay it - same goes for all things about weddings - if people refused to pay the extremely high prices the price of things would go lower! Oh well..... Maybe someday I'll get invited to a wedding there because there is NO way I could ever afford there.

That's a selling point? (j/k!!!! ) all joking aside, Oheka is lovely. Plus, you'd be getting the whole castle to yourself that day. No need to hunt around for places to take pics, everywhere is beautiful. If you get a chance, go to their annual bridal event... good food, and some prizes can be won... only prob is that they charge nominal admission fee ($20), while most bridal shows are free. I went b/c i knew it'd be the only time i'd probably ever go in my life.
They also rent out the rooms in the castle. You can book a hall that is within your budget, and splurge a bit by spending on your wedding night. they have 'Master Suites' (which, honestly, can fit a small family with 2 kids), or just their basic bedroom, which is a lovely guest room in itself. I was totally a bride on a budget, and splurged a bit by have DH and entire BP stay in Glen cove Mansion suites for the night before, and DH and I spent our wedding night there. HTH in the hunt for affordable options!
