New to the boards - engaged for a month and starting to look at venues. We're looking for a Saturday in August, and preliminary guest list came up with 150-170 people. I've called a few places and only one responded so far - requiring a minimum guarantee of 225 for Sat night. Am starting to worry - does anyone have suggestions on venues with lower minimums? From websearch, these are my top choices:
- Riviera - Sand Castle - Inn at New Hyde Park (225 Guarantee) - Woodbury Country Club - Fox Hollow - Crescent (I grew up in Bayville, so my family is close, not super-convenient for OOT guests)
Any other suggestions/tips are appreciated!
Thanks!

Re: Venues with under 200 person guarantee
Keep in mind if you list is 170- you will probably not end up at 170. Our list was 176 and we ended up with 110 guests- alot of out of town guests and local guests couldnt make it. I am getting married tomorrow at The Metropolitan in Glen Cove- they are typically a 140 minimum but we got them to do 120 because it is a jewish holiday tomorrow. Good luck!
