Me too..I believe Harrison told us Tequila, Absoult and ones that are top shelf..but I don't know if it is in our contract spelled out.

I guess we can all ask at the showcase.

We RSVP'd for 7:30, I can't wait to see you all there

Re: Westbury Manor THREAD!!!!

yea, the wedding I was at last night got me nervous about the bar...the tequila is really what baffled me - esp since that's what my fam drinks. i know i asked natasha about the bar when i booked, but i don't remember what names she mentioned. i'm going to be asking that at the showcase.

So what time are we all meeting in front of the martini bar? What time did everyone RSVP for

I will be at the martini bar at 8pm as well. Hopefully, I will get to meet more of you girls because last time I was only able to meet gloria.

I RSVP'd for 6:30pm but I should be there by 7pm.

Re: Westbury Manor THREAD!!!!

We got a chocolate fountain for free (and an ice sculpture).didn't even want it in the first place w/ the vienese hour providing plenty of treats...but..i think he liked us because we were Italians.
3 fountains seems like overkill.

Re: Westbury Manor THREAD!!!!

I have a question - Felicia told me that they have music playing during the CH on speakers outside (and I'm sure inside if - god forbid - we have to move it inside) but are you girls getting musicians anyway? I'm torn about this. I guess a big deciding factor will be price but I don't know if we should even bother. Thoughts?

They can pipe music into the CH but I got a steel drum band to play

Re: Westbury Manor THREAD!!!!

The music they pipe in though - it is probably no words right???

Re: Westbury Manor THREAD!!!!

I would assume there aren't any words - just background music.

Charondita - where did you book your steel drum band from? That's one of the ideas we were throwing around.

Re: Westbury Manor THREAD!!!!

The music they pipe in has no words its just music.

I booked the band through after hours DJ. I got a great deal. They have a few options..1 person
( which I got), 3 piece or 5 piece
