I'm so upset! Both hotels near my venue are booked for our wedding weekend!
I just called Holiday Inn Express (the new one, in Riverhead) and Best Western in Riverhead and they are both booked for my wedding weekend. I can't block anyone any rooms close by.
My next call tomorrow will be the Hampton Inn in Farmingville. Which, is not close but the next closest one to my venue.
What a bummer. Anyone else have this problem?

Re: I'm so upset! Both hotels near my venue are booked for our wedding weekend!
They are booked already!?!?! I haven't even started looking at hotels...I guess I better start making some phone calls.
Hopefully it will all work out for you!

Re: I'm so upset! Both hotels near my venue are booked for our wedding weekend!
That is crazy, I can't believe they are already booked. I went to the Hyatt near my venue and they were open for my weekend. They did tell me to book soon, since it is graduation weekend. Who is staying in Riverhead at the Holiday Inn Express in September

Re: I'm so upset! Both hotels near my venue are booked for our wedding weekend!
that really stinks! we blocked off 15 rooms for our wedding night at the holiday inn express in riverhead. the suite was already taken, but we can deal with that. hopefully you'll be able to book elsewhere without a problem. ~lacey

Re: I'm so upset! Both hotels near my venue are booked for our wedding weekend!
I believe it....I was calling around for hotels back in June and a few places were booked for my wedding in April.
Maybe there's some B&B's you can check into?

Re: I'm so upset! Both hotels near my venue are booked for our wedding weekend!
I was originally going with the Best Western in Riverhead - getting married at Giorgio's. I've since changed my mind and booked the Marriott in Islandia, which is 1/2 hr from Giorgio's (don't know how far it is from Vinyard) but I'm getting a bus to take my guest to and from the reception. IMO the Marriott is a much nicer hotel .........
Just an idea for another option..........
Plus they gave me a very decent price, much better than Best Western. FM me if you want price comparison.

Re: I'm so upset! Both hotels near my venue are booked for our wedding weekend!
I am sorry to hear that, I am actually getting married at the Vineyard Catereres 8/12, so I can completely relate. I figure that I have been to so many weddings where the hotels were not near by and people will stay wherever,it will all work out!

Re: I'm so upset! Both hotels near my venue are booked for our wedding weekend!
not only do i have the same problem, but it is with the EXACT same hotels! i ended up booking the marriott at the airport and the holiday inn by stony brook. i figure that most people will want to stay at b and b's anyway. please please FM me if you figure out a better solution!

I didn't as everyone stayed at the Best Western. I did see a Radison in Farmingville as well.

Re: I'm so upset! Both hotels near my venue are booked for our wedding weekend!
I booked at the Courtyard Marriott. I know that it is far from out east (where my wedding is), but all my guests are coming from the west, so it seems to work out for us. We couldn't really afford Eastwind, but we are really happy with the hotel we picked (even though it isn't right around the corner). Plus, they have a lot of nice perks, and the price is right!

Re: I'm so upset! Both hotels near my venue are booked for our wedding weekend!
I actually used hotels.com and they hooked me up with the Marriott Islandia. I'm telling you there are TONS of hotels out here if you don't mind traveling 1/2 or so to your venue.

Re: I'm so upset! Both hotels near my venue are booked for our wedding weekend!
Maybe there is some sort of festival out there or something?
I recommend the Hyatt in Hauppauge (obviously) but, there are a ton of hotels around that area. There's a Marriott, a Hilton Garden Inn and a ton of others.
Good luck!

If you are willing to have your guests stay further west, I can recommend the Hilton Garden Inn in Ronkonkoma. That is where my guests stayed (I also stayed there the night before) and it was excellent.

Re: I'm so upset! Both hotels near my venue are booked for our wedding weekend!
Maybe some of the smaller Bed and Breakfasts in Southold and Greenport will have vacancies? There is a motel called the Vineyard Motel (I think) in Jamesport. However, I don't know how nice it is.

Eastwind is really nice, but VERY expensive (like $300 a night!)

they're probably making you nervous so you book with them as opposed to other hotels. hotels i called back in june couldn't even help me for my july 06 wedding until august because it was too early and the prices weren't in the system

that's exactly why I didn't choose that hotel. I can't block rooms there. none of my relatives will stay there for $300.00 a night.
I'm thinking everyone is going to have to duke it out themselves. I'm going to make one more attempt at the Hampton Inn in Farmingville.
thanks for your suggestions girls!
