They will provide menus if you upgrade the menu to the one with 7 choices. The menu is cream with the WM logo and then the 7 choices of entrees.

Girls -

What are you doing as far as decorations for the sweetheart table? Are you just putting the bouquets on the table, a small flower arrangement, rose petals?? I am at a loss. Everyday I change my mind.

Do we have to pay additional for the seven choice menu? Is this different from the seasonal menu?

No we decided against it. We have so many other add-ons that we didn't feel it was necessary. I did pick some of the 7 choice menu entrees though instead of the 4 seasons ones. I think the chicken and maybe something else?

Hi ladies!
I met with Kelly on Tuesday - she's great! Very sweet and patient! We picked out the menus (four seasons - but picked four + the vegetarian meal) and the other things.

I asked her to walk us around the garden room again - it was set up for a function the next day - and I fell in love with WM all over again!! I had not been back since choosing them last year.

I walked out on the dance floor and looked around. I wanted to jump up and down and scream 'I'M GETTING MARRIED!!!!!!!!!' but refrained from it - didn't want to scare Kelly!

So I did that when I got home (and made FI do it too - it was so funny).

I can't believe how time is flying by!

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

thats one thing (probably the only thing besides having to get my own drinks halfway through reception) that i was annoyed at with them.
FIrst we agreed to have ceremony outside and cocktail inside cuz there was a chance of rain. Then when they saw it was gorgeous before ceremony they said they would have it inside AND out. so we thought that they would set up the food outdoors then and people can go inside if needed. But thats not what they did. I was a little annoyed at that because we didn't spend much time inside since it was so nice so i barely saw the set up!! But people were able to bring their food outside. Tables were set up. It was nice anyway. So it really wasn't a big deal, but it would have been nice for it all to be outside.

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

Okay another crazy bride question - but how many tables is everyone having on each side of the dance floor? I am looking at about 12 to a side if I do 10 people to a table on average. Do you think that will leave enough room for people to walk around easily with 12 tables to each side? I have never seen the room fully set up to know what makes it look empty and what makes it look too crowded? Or should I do 12 people to a table? And have around 10 to each side?

Thanks!
