We reserved Olive Garden for our RD............

Thanks to wanda (cw0904)

We went last night, they have 2 packages.
12.95 and 14.95. We of course like the 14.95.
We will have a separate section to ourselves with our own waiters.......

They were very nice. If anyone wants a reasonalby priced RD this is it.
We were so stressed about the cost of our RD b/c of our huge BP, but were AOK now

Re: We reserved Olive Garden for our RD............

awesome! I was in my friend's wedding last June and she had her rehearsal dinner there. It was AMAZING! The food was awesome, but besides that-the amount of food was not to be believed!! They just kepty bringing us more and more food! We had a seperate section in the back and we weren't bothered by the rest of the resturant. She had hers @ the one in Massapequa-which one are you having it @? It was awesome--good choice!

Thanks everyone

Liquor: YOu can include it in your tab or not, they could order drinks if you want to pay for it, OR they could order their drinks at the bar and pay for it themselves.
You could also opt to have pitchers of Sangria out (yum yum) or bottles of wine.

Deposit: NO deposit, that's what we like. They just want an approx. # of people and will charge you per person. Minimum 20.
