RH decision

Yesterday my FH and I went to Majestic Gardens and Lombardi's on the Sound. We fell in love with Lombardi's on the Sound. The view, location, food, and one wedding at a time was perfect for us. The only problem is the I don't know if it would fit all of us. We thinking of inviting 260 guests. My parents are worried about the size. I'm also thinking of looking at Giorgio's. I heard it was beautiful and would fit us better. The only problem is that it might be a little too far away. I'm stressing out because it is such a big decision but I think we need to look around before booking. I'm just worried because things are booking up so fast.

You're shopping at a GREAT time - i really don't think you will have a problem getting your date at an RH so I don't think you should stress at all!!

Also, i HIGHLY recommend Giorgio's. The view off of their outdoor deck is so breathtaking that it's worth any amount of driving to have your guests experience it. also, they give SOOOOOOO much food in their package, it's unbelievable. FH and I didn't book there b/c the guarantee was too high. but i think your party will fit quite nicely!

Re: RH decision

you really should. i met with the owner and his son (they run the place from top to bottom) and they were soooooooooo sweet!! i wish we could afford to bring in more guests, because we would have booked there hands down! when FH saw how much food they include, he almost died!

Re: RH decision

I am a giorgio's bride to be and I have to tell you that they were the most helpful people to talk to and not just because I am getting married there...... they will answer any question you need... they will bend over backward to make sure that you get what you want (I know other girls who got married there) and the view is unreal... it'sa very large room .. so you won't have to worry about the size..... i completely and totally fell inlove with the room, the view, the pictures on the beach, and the staff!!!!!
Just take a look there... it's worth it
Also there is a showcase feb 24th.. im going!

Re: RH decision

it definatly does not hurt to look around and see what is out there, but to be honest I would go for a place that you know can accomodate all your guests, its either that or you cut down on your guest list...

Re: RH decision

You should def look around some more, it wouldn't hurt. Giorgios is gorgeous and if you like the whole one wedding thin, u can also try to look at the north ritz club, its nice.

Re: RH decision

Lombardis is the next place on my list to go take a look at..I really wish I would have made some time this weekend to go because now I will be kickin myself all week!

I went to Giorgios and it really is GORGEOUS!! The room is big, and I love the windows..but I am pretty set on having an ocean view from my room and since they didn't have that, it was REALLY far from me and the room was a little big for my wedding (about 120 people) we kind of deceided against it..but when we went there we were really blown away. FH, my mother and I really thought it was BEAUTIFUL...plus like other girls said, the owner and his son and SIL are REALLY nice and accomadating! I'd def. go check it out!

Re: RH decision

I heard great things about Giorgio's and it's really beautiful. However, I LOVE Lombardi's. That place is fantastic. It's up to you though. Do you want to go with a place you really love and cut your guest list OR go with another place you love and have your giant guest list? Either or is a win win situation I think- it just boils down to what you really want!
