Small Queens reception sites?
Hi all! I'm planning on getting married in Forest Hills and looking for a reception site nearby so the guests don't have to travel hours from the church to the reception. i'm from long island and don't know much about queens. anyone have any ideas? i'm having a pretty small wedding with about 75 people and an even smaller budget. i'd rather a small inn-type place than a catering hall. caffe on the green might be perfect but some good friends already got married there. Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm looking for something similar to the Three Village Inn.

Re: Small Queens reception sites?
Well..I don't know much about this hall at all...
But a bride on the 07 boards who's having a smaller wedding on a budget is having it at Fleur de Lis, in Ridgewood, I don't think thats far...

Haven't been there but I heard Cafe on the Green is very nice. It's in Bayside, Queens.

Caffe on the Green, Russo's on the Bay
Astoria Manor, Antuns in Queens Village (Not too crazy about the location)
Leonards is in Long Island but not far from queens. All my family lives in Queens.
Laguradia Marriott does small parties and the food and service is great.

Re: Small Queens reception sites?
I was also going to suggest Cafe on the Green in Bayside, they have a room that would be good for you, and their food is very good.

Cafe on the Green is very nice as you mentioned
There's Douglaston Manor (don't know how it is lately)
Reception Hall in Flushing on Northern Blvd. (where old Villa Bianca is)

Re: Small Queens reception sites?
It might be worth your while to go around the Forest Hills area with FH and look at restaurants with party rooms.

Re: Small Queens reception sites?
There is also Verdi's in Whitestone, but caffe on the green, and douglaston manor are nicer IMO.

Re: Small Queens reception sites?
Hi,
I looked at Caffe on the Green and thought it was great! My only concern is that the two rooms combined might be akward because it sort of becomes a U-shape.
Since you were at a wedding there can you tell me what it was like?
THANKS!

Re: Small Queens reception sites?
Try this website as well. It will give you a list of places along with how many people they accomodate and what type of food. It's a great tool and helps you narrow it down.

Re: Small Queens reception sites?
I had my e-party at Caffe on the Green! Everything and everyone was great! They are also very reasonably priced and the food is out of this world.
There's also Water's Edge in Long Island City, very pretty views of the city

We wanted something simple, so we just did a sit down dinner. I wanted it small, unfortunately thanks to my FMIL it was 100 people. We just used the smaller room, so there was no dancing. But everything was great!
