Re: THE 'OFFICIAL' EAST WIND THREAD!
I am almost positive that eastwind does not make their own wedding cakes. I like the way fondont looks, but I heard that it tastes like cardboard, just some info for you.....

Re: THE 'OFFICIAL' EAST WIND THREAD!
I had made a thread a while ago but it did not last, so lets make this one last. About the cake East Wind told me to bring a picture of what I want and they would replicate it. I think they use Shoream Bakery, I know it is done outside. Fondant is extra, but cakes that are not that detailed could be made in whipped cream and then decorated.

Re: THE 'OFFICIAL' EAST WIND THREAD!
Jamie, we can choose whatever filling we want for our cake, right?? I asked to glance thru the book of cakes, tI think ther ewas like 6 to choose from for the package, but if you wanted somethig different, you pay the difference, and they said if you see something you like in a magazine, etc, they can ask the person they use for a quote on it...

Re: THE 'OFFICIAL' EAST WIND THREAD!
JZNCK, are you planning on having place cards? I know that we don't need them at the Estate...but I think that I might have them anyway. What do you think?
If they'll let me, I want to do place cards, because I'm afraid that it will take too long to sit everyone.. I don't mind the place card idea, then people can sit whenever they want..
SWAGS:are you happy with the seating style at east winds??

Re: THE 'OFFICIAL' EAST WIND THREAD!
Hi Everyone. I am an Inn at East Wind bride to be! Originally I was a 2005 bride, but due to FI's father's illness, we have postponed until 2006 since the road to recovery will be a long one.
We will be at the showcase on the 14th as well

Re: THE 'OFFICIAL' EAST WIND THREAD!
Yeah finally an East Wind thread!!! I'm getting married in the North Hampton Ballroom July 15, 2005. So far we have the photographer and DJ booked. For those of you doing the ceremony at the Inn, they just built a beautfiul chapel room!!! We were so excited to find that out a month ago when we went to make a payment. I have a question about placecards....do they provide the placecards and write the names and table numbers for you? I am so clueless! I need to find out the size of them if they do provide them because FI and I are planning to do frames for them. Happy planning!!!

Re: THE 'OFFICIAL' EAST WIND THREAD!
I really did not want to use place cards but I was worried about there being a huge line and it taking too long for people to be seated....Thanks swags!! I feel a lot better.
