Re: Westbury Manor-Brides (We decided to make this our official thread)

Does WBM provide you cutter and server for the cake or do we need to bring it with us, I was not planning on buying one but want to make sure we have something to cut the cake with

Re: Westbury Manor-Brides (We decided to make this our official thread)

Thanks for posting the cake picture and centerpiece. Does anyone know if the cake has to be placed in front of the bride and groom like that or do you have an option? Does it get in the way?

Re: Westbury Manor-Brides (We decided to make this our official thread)

Not much new going on....

To help answer some questions, I am sure the WM has a cake cutter and server. You can call and ask, but most places have them and people bring them more for sentimental reasons.

And from what I was told the cake can be in front of you or put behind you on the side. That piece is detachable. I plan on putting it on the side behind me.

Re: Westbury Manor-Brides (We decided to make this our official thread)

I think I want the cake off to the side. I want to be able to see everyone. BUT maybe I will have them keep it in front of me while I am eating, so no one can see if I make a mess

Just making final preperations. The menu is set and so is the cake. I can't wait to be on that dance floor with my FH.

Re: Westbury Manor-Brides (We decided to make this our official thread)

I was a WM bride in September: the tipping that was suggested to me by Susan was

$2-4 per person for the Maitre de
$100-150 for the bridal attendant

Valets and waiters are included in the tax and tip included in the price. I hope this helps you somewhat! I kept my envelopes open in case i wanted to give some more $$ if they did an outstanding job - which they did!

Good luck to all you ladies- it's amazing!

Re: Westbury Manor-Brides (We decided to make this our official thread)

Thanks so much, I thought I had to tip the waiters and valet extra, thnks so much you have helped alot.

Re: Westbury Manor-Brides (We decided to make this our official thread)

Thanks that helps a lot. What about the other vendors such as hair, florists, DJ, Photo etc?

Re: Westbury Manor-Brides (We decided to make this our official thread)

From what I have seen peoeple tend to give the photographer 100-150 and the assistant 50 and the video 100. I am using proline also I am not sure if each guy has an assistant though, do you know

Re: Westbury Manor-Brides (We decided to make this our official thread)

Re: Westbury Manor-Brides (We decided to make this our official thread)

I think Pro-Line told me that the Photo comes with an assistant but hte video guy comes alone.
