Re: town of babylon ladies
Hi, I live in Lindenhurst & Venetian shores is nice, but pretty small. They just put up a restaurant/water area there for the kids. There is sand, but not very much. I'll see if I can take some pics for you this weekend. The gates are open and they don't check for your town permits--don't know if they'd bother you if you were in limos/bp.
By the way you can see CLM from there.
BTW, what church are you getting married at?

Not familiar with the venetian shores, but as an alternative Copiage is close by and Tanner park has a beach that you could take pics. Its about 5 minutes away from CLM.

Re: town of babylon ladies
Its been a while since I've been there, but I clearly remember tanner park having a small beach with sand and everything. There's also a small park down clock's blvd in Amityville right off merrick road. But that's more like a 'park/waterview' - no sand. Same goes for East shore drive in nassau shores. They have a nice park/play area with a nice waterview, but not too much sand. Sorry dont have any pics, but I just wanted to give you some alternatives.

Re: town of babylon ladies
Do you have enough time to go to any of the TOB beaches? Gilgo is very short, not a lot of walking to the water.....

Re: town of babylon ladies
Since its right next to CLM if you have 10 minutes or so you should take a few mre pics by the docs, only because its something else, something different. We had the guys stand on those pillar things at the docks. That was cute! Then they to pics f the whole bridal party walking to CLM
