Oct Bride - Carlyle
Don't worry about the size of the cocktail hour room at all - I had 200 and it was plenty big - you use the whole place my guests were at the little tables outside the main room for cocktail hour (and you know the room that they say if guests arrive early (or you can use it for after hour party?) my guests were also in there. (The cocktail hour is the best part of the place in my opinion) Try and go to it if you can!
I used Stefan's as my florist (and don't regret it) I went with them b/c they are the house florist so I figured they would do the best job - however, if I were to do it again I might of gone with Flowers by Brian - my final choice was between the two - You will not be disappointed with Stefans (they gave me the most for my money and that day they even suprised me with some extras, which is always good!
I can't really think of anything I'd do different - the place it simply elegant and it was exactly what I had wanted for my wedding! I have never been to a wedding like it!
