Re: FOX HOLLOW BRIDES - Question & Answer Thread
I am getting married on 11/28/08 and so wish I could find my date twin! But yes we did get a comp room. Our BM Ron was SUPER nice and sweet. We didn't ask for the room, but he knew we were coming from Brooklyn & flopped it in the contract! Victor Scotto does the group rates over at the Inn @ FH & he was a joy to deal with.

Re: FOX HOLLOW BRIDES - Question & Answer Thread

When we asked him who the bakery was for the cake, he told me they don't use a bakery, all the cakes are done on premises...ok, that's a lie- why would he want to lie about that?
And we asked if we could taste the food, that was another NO!
When I signed up on this site, I found out that the bakery was Erga bakery in Bethpage and that some girls were getting food for free at the restaurant after booking.
I called the bakery and asked if I could do a tasting and when I spoke to the second BM he told me I could come in for dinner and he would take care of it.
I hope they don't read these Threads..I might be in even more trouble!!
They do read this thread. We discussed it at my final meeting!! It's like Big Brother...they're always watching!!

When I saw Dave, he told me that he was the director and I wouldn't be dealing with him anyway after that first meeting.
He was so rude..he would cut me off continuously to answer the phone...not even an excuse me, he would just answer it and walk out the door when I was in mid sentence.
My mother came back with me that same day to see the place and told him he was was being rude and she told him that she knew it was because if I walked out that day, then he knew someone else would book the date.
Is there another Dave or is this the same guy? Once he got my check he was so nice and gave me a stupid stuffed Fox! I went to another RH and they gave me a bottle of champagne just to congratulate us on our engagement and we didn't even book with them.
I can't get over that! Maybe there are two Dave's. The Dave I got was so nice and really accomodating. He spent so much time with us and answered all my crazy questions. My parents went back four times before booking. I guess everyone has their off days....

yeah, i worked with David too and he was a pleasure (Even after we had a blow out with Frank)... After reading these posts I really dont think they have any rhyme or reason for what they throw in. I feel like it depends on what kind of mood they are in that day

Re: FOX HOLLOW BRIDES - Question & Answer Thread
Ladies who are nervous about the Briar Fox room... don't be! I was a little nervous at first too, the low ceilngs were my obsession for MONTHS. it got kind of ridiculous, i almost cancelled b/c of it.
However, the night of our wedding, I walked in and was SOOOO happy with my choice. Its a cozy, comfortable room, they will not over crowd it. the location of the band or dj is great, most of my guests commented that they liked being able to enjoy the music without it being like a concert or show, they liked that the bride and groom were always the main focus.
i posted a pic a few pages back, and will post more soon.
Seriously, it's gorgeous.

don't feel that way!! the entire point of this board and this thread is to share experiences & that's what you are doing.
Maybe the person you met with was having a bad day - you never know...

I think LIprincess is right, it doesn't seem they are very consistent in their offerings. As long as we all have a day to remember forever!

Re: FOX HOLLOW BRIDES - Question & Answer Thread
i am gettting married this coming sunday & must say so far all the people i have dealt with at the fox hollow have been great. i met with eric the other day for our final meeting & he was wonderful. Also, spoke w/Frank over the phone a few times. he was also very professional. sorry to hear other girls are having problems. They honored everything that was on my contract. i guess the key is to get everything in writing

Thanks...you are right, I seriously freaked out last night after I learned they read these posts. But they should know that the way I was treated is unacceptableand if they read what I wrote, maybe their attitudes will change for the next Bride.

Re: FOX HOLLOW BRIDES - Question & Answer Thread
Does anyone know if they give you a free meal to eat at the restaurant if you request a tasting? Or is it just the appetizers?

Re: FOX HOLLOW BRIDES - Question & Answer Thread
I asked about having a tasting and they said they didn't do one. However, I have heard some girls say, if you call ahead and tell them you are going to eat in the restaurant, then they hook you up.

See, everytime I ask about this, I am told to either talk to Ron about it, or no one gives me a straight answer, other than no food tastings.
I would love it if we could get a meal there, i love the food

Re: FOX HOLLOW BRIDES - Question & Answer Thread
way back when....dave & I asked about a tasting and like you all, we were told that they don't do them.
I do think that if you make reservations and let them know you are getting married there, they may give you an appetizer or desert.
We're looking forward to going back for dinner on our one year anniversary!

I used Richard. His prices were right in the range of everyone else and I loved his work. You can check out my review for more information and some photos.

Re: FOX HOLLOW BRIDES - Question & Answer Thread
Does anyone who has had their ceremony there but didn't use Richard for their CP's and Bo-k's know how it works for the ceremony decorations? I am having a Chuppah and I literally can't have any kind of lillies on it or else I will have an allergy attack!!!! I wonder if there is any way to request if certain flowers can/can't be used?? i know it sounds silly, but I don't want to be sneezing during my I do's!!! I just feel weird since I didn't go with PWP for flowers. Thanks!!
