Lombardis on the Sound
May 2005- Sat night
$145 pp

I thought what I was paying was an average price but after reading what everyone else is paying I feel like I am paying way too much!!!!!!

Go to the Riviera--- it is gorgeous, on the water, great food, awesome people to work with-- Michelle is awesome! The price is great too-- anywhere from 85- 120 depending on the date and time, but that includes centerpieces (which are very nice) and a viennese hour that a lot of places don't include Chateau La Mer ' is an extra 20 pp and the Lessings places charge 8pp extra I think. I love it there!

It's disgusting how expensive weddings are on Long Island!

Friday night
Wesbury Manor
$117 per person, (includes: tax, gratuity, seafood boat, martini bar, and cordials). I got to start cutting that list

$500 down, and we have a bi-monthly pymt plan with them. Most halls will set up a pymt plan for you, so that the difference at the end is not as overwhelming!

Hamlet willow creek

We went with the Estate at East Wind, and it costs 102 pp for a Saturday evening in March. Altogether our hall is: $18360.00 and that is concidered cheap for an Long Island affair

We put down 10% then 3 months later $3400 then 3 months 3400 and now we're onto paying for the rest in February

Thanks- I was also able to get them down on the ceremony fee and throw in fruit platters for each table for dessert (it's an Italian thing)....

When you book under a year you are basically 'found money' to the halls....

My friend got Westbury Manor on a Sat Afternoon for $50pp this way
