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

Is use of the library only for the Garden Rm, or is it for any guests who want to get away from their parties? I was under the impression that the Garden Rm and the Library go together as part of the package. I just want to make sure that no other party's guests can go there.
Edited to say: This will be our thread!!

I know! What do you think? Should I do 12 to a table? I was at a wedding once that had 14 and I thought that was a little too crowded?

I'm doing 12 at a table...I'm trying sooooo hard not to do 14. What I really need is 3 more tables so I can do 10 at a table but that's not going to happen.
Babybride your wedding is huge!
Did you girls get all your responses back yet? I'm still waiting on a few...and one schmuck who can't decide if he's going to bring his girlfriend or not.

I have three people I am waiting on and one person who answered 'and guest' so I wrote her to see if I could get the guest's name for the placecards and she said she doesn't know who she is bringing yet! She better bring someone - I am paying!!

babybride -- I think tables of 12 will be good -- but I know how you feel about being overcrowded. My parents went to a wedding at the fox hollow a few months ago and they had 16 to a table! IT was nuts -- nobody could get up to go to the bathroom!
How many people are you having? We are going through a whole big saga right now with the guest list -- its reached 399!!! I'm so mad!!!

399!! WOw. I don't think I even know that many people. We both have verysvmall families and the majority of people attending our wedding are friends.

With the place cards. Do I give a list to Westbury manor and they do it or do I have to get them done myself??

Too be honest, I don't think I even know half of them I put my foot down last night and told them that they have to narrow it down -- even if 15% say no, that's still to many people!

I think twelve should be fine. 14 would be excessive. I will probably be having tables of 10 and 12. I think we are going to have 115 people. Most of my family is out of state and can't/won't make the trip as well as FH's family is out of country and really can't make it. If he had as many friends guests coming from his side as I do, we would be a lot larger, but this should be a nice number
Wow, I still can't believe 24 tables. That seems huge!

Thanks guys for all your help with the tables. I was off Friday for a friend's wedding and just saw this now.
Butterfly - are the 399 all US? We were at 383 when we sent the invites out, but that included a good deal of overseas relatives that weren't coming. Right now were are looking at around 240 people attending. We only had about 14 no's from the 'true' list of people - excluding the overseas ones we knew were no's.

If we were interested in having a chocolate fountain would the manor be able to make those arrangements for us or would we have to go to an outside vendor? I heard that the other places(Scotto Brother sites) will help you get this through them.
