I have all vendors booked but I made an appointment with Francessa anyway for next Saturday just for the he ll of it since many girls said she was so good. I figured I could speak with her about the room, set up, intiations, etc. Thanks as always girls for the great advice.

I have an appointment with Francesa on Saturday too! We'll be there at 4.

Re: The official JERICHO TERRACE thread

Thank you all for the info on the menu's. Next time I go I'll have to ask to see them.

I agree with people that you should go see her. I'm not having a DOC, but she has been very helpful with ideas and planning. She is very easy to talk to and you can ask her anything. They now have a new office, just down the block from the Jericho Terrace, so you might have to meet there.

Hello all my fellow Jericho Terrace brides. I love reading what everyone has to say. I was wondering if anyone knows about the menu. I am haveing the 9 choice menu. I was wondering if there are menu cards on the table or not?? Does the waiter go around and say all 9 choices to all the guest??? I'm having 240 people--that would be crazy. Just wondering

b/c we had the 9 choices we did the menus - we also wanted people to know that there was going to be a VH - so we listed that on our menu as well......we wanted people to know about everything since there was a lot - i felt like with all that stuff we were having we didn't want people to miss it.....especially when you pay so much for it all! i'll try to post a pic - T-E-S-S-A did our menus and they were really nice! the ones we went with didn't have the glitter - they were more plain - just the shimmery paper and black ink in fonts that matched with the fonts we used on everything else for the wedding and invites......

Hilton Garden Inn offers the shuttle to and from...

I was not impressed by their customer service. Their suites were nothing to write home about either.

I am doing Marriot in Uniondale.

I booked Hilton Garden Inn only b/c of their free shuttle. Their customer service is HORRIBLE!!!! I had to call them for 2 weeks to get the lady to call me back and block off my rooms... THEN my friend calls up to book a room, and they kept her on hold for so long she just hung up. Seriously, I was SO ANNOYED by this- There better not be any other problems or I will lose it!

I blocked off rooms at the La Quinta. The bridal suite is a great size and very nice. The price was better than the Marriott. They also have a shuttle to and from the Jericho Terrace. That was very important to me to have a shuttle, or most people won't stay. Check out the La Quinta in Garden City. They were very helpful.

Re: The official JERICHO TERRACE thread

I booked the Hilton Garden Inn and I have had nothing but great customer service! That is so funny how we had different experiences. I did also book right when JT and them were talking about the deal so it wasn't as busy. I know that since then when I have spoken with Nadine, she has said things have gotten crazy because of all the JT brides who are calling to book.

When I needed more rooms, I called her and she was great with me and I had 10 more rooms added right away. No problems for me... I have 25 rooms booked there with 19 filled so far and no complaints.

we did LaQuinta and we went down and had breakfast with everyone the next morning - its in the lobby and its included for all hotel of the guests - it was nice and we got to see just about everyone who stayed over.....we didn't use their shuttle b/c we got one through our limo co - instead we used the shuttle credit towards the cost of the bridal suite.....

Wow that's really good I can't wait to go do this! :) I feel like having breakfast all together the next morning may even be a little more intimate then having a brunch set up that's more formal. Most of the guests that will stay over are very close to us and not many OOT just from around the area.

I have a question about the hotel. I'm not sure if you got ready there along with your bridal party but I'm not sure what I should do. I will be getting ready at the hotel with my bridal party bc I am from Staten Island and not risking traffic the day of the wedding. My question is if I get ready in one suite with all my girls, do I just get late checkout for that suite so that I can use it all the way up until we're ready to leave for the church (about 2 hours later). Or do I have to purchase that room for both nights, when I'd really want to stay in the honeymoon suite for the wedding night obviously. Do they have a honeymoon suite, am I on the right track. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

TIA!
