I just had this idea-- & thought it would be fun.... if you combined all of your favorite things from the RH's that you've been to, what would be your perfect wedding day?
Mine would as follows: (in a dream world)
Ceremony: Old Westbury Gardens (with pics there too)
Drive up/ First impression to RH- EW
Lobby @ RH- Inn @ EW
Bridal Suite: Inn @ EW
Grooms Suite: Vineyard Caterers
Bathrooms: EW Inn
Entrace to Reception: CLM, by way of water!!
Cocktail Hour- CH room @ JT
Reception Room: Dome Room @ JT
Then Honeymoon Suite-- Ambassador suite @ EW
ETA: I forgot BM's-- 1st place is John M. @ EW, 2nd place is Dom @ Woodbury CC, 3rd (i dont remember his name but we liked him) The guy from Vineyard!
I just read this & you would never guess that I looked at over 20 RH's!! You would think that I would have more diverse of an opinion!! But those stick out to me!!

I love my RH, but the only thing that FH and I loved at another RH was the Crescent Beach Club's CH - it's right on the beach!

WOW!!! That is so opposite us!! WE looked at so many-- but ultimately, we booked the VERY FIRST one we ever went to-- I always knew it was for me-- we kept looking for a few reasons:
#1- I wanted to have that special time of RH shopping together!!
#2- I am a FREAK and refuse to make a decision unless I've seen all the possible options!! (I was terrified that I'd go to a wedding in a year & say WHY DIDNT I LOOK HERE!!!) LOL- I'm a nut job!

Re: Spinoff on 'Curiously'
I do love my RH....but I second guess myself sometimes. I really wanted a wedding on the water, and I think I should have looked more...I kind of dismissed it because we couldn't afford it. Money was definitely the deciding factor in my decision, but I do love my RH. I just didn't want to spend a fortune...we are trying to move out of my mom's house!!!
BUT...if I had the money, I would have so booked Atlantica....LOVED it!!! The ceremony location was wonderful....and it was small, and beautiful. The only possible way I could have gotten married there was in January to March, and we couldn't have the ceremony outside under the tent, because it wouldn't be up....and I didn't want a winter wedding, and what if the weather was bad, it was a hike for my guests....but yeah, it was gorgeous there!!

Re: Spinoff on 'Curiously'
West Sayville Country Club is a part of my life. My father worked there for Suffolk County Dept of Parks. He took care of the Golf Course. He passed away eleven years ago. I have so many memories from WSCC that we needed to have our wedding there. The 1st meeting there as drove into the golfcourse I felt this comfort of my dad and I knew then this is where we were going to have our wedding. I am getting a little emotional. Wow, soon I will be walking down the aisle.

Re: Spinoff on 'Curiously'
This is fun.... I love love LOVE everything about CLM, so most of it I would keep as is. Here are a few things I would change and steal from other locations...
Drive up/ First impression to RH- The drive up to Timberpoint thru that little neighborhood, it's so beautiful
Bridal Suite: Glen Sanders Mansion in upstate NY... I was soooo taken aback at how absolutely stunning it was... It doubled as the HM suite as well.
That's about it....
ETA: I just HAD to share a few pics from Glen Sander's Bridal Suite/HM Suite...
