ok so i went in a couple months ago and noticed the round mirrors and votive candles on the tables - and i was told that they'd throw those in for free. then the other day i emailed asking about table number holders and she said she has 'em and can include those too.
what other things did your reception hall give you? i want to make sure i don't buy anything that i could potentially get for free!!

I got the seafood bar and 3 extra stations ****tail hour, ice scultpures, pasta course during reception, viennnese trays, cake and an extra 1/2 hour. But, like Theresa said, these are not exactly 'extras' because I paid good $$$ per person. It's just that they would have charged even more to add them on.

We got 5 votives per table for reception, candles for cocktail room, they left all xmas decorations up, the cake of course, an extra corse at cocktail hour, and I was both surprised and delighted that they actually had menu cards made up for each person w/o me even mentioning it!

How is that possible? Unless you are paying for the fish bar sushi and lobsters that is all additional. Also Russo's told me they do not do ice sculptures!!

My cousin spoke to him for me originally, but we did not bring up ice sculptures. I guess we need to go back again to discuss this. Vienneses was included free. I didn't want the rose march. I thought it was a little too much. everyone is different, that what makes each wedding special.
