Back in the 90s, we (me, my mom, and friends/co-workers of my mom) used to go there for lunch at least once each month because it was such a lovely hotel in an excellent location ... the all-you-can-eat steamed shrimp buffet didn't hurt either! The staff were always very friendly and the food was delish. I've always thought that if I were to get married, I'd like to do it there.
I've made an appointment with them for next Tuesday.
I'm not going to put all my eggs in one basket and just go with them and not visit with any other locations. I'm also going to look at:
The Hospitality House
- http://www.williamsburghosphouse.com/weddings.shtml
- They are in a prime location, relatively easy to get to (unless it is a weekend with a home football game) and they have a parking garage.
- I'm suspecting that they are out of my budget, though.
The Ramada 1776
- http://www.ramadainn1776.com/banquetscatering/
- They are in an excellent location and the grounds are very nice.
- Their website is NOT good but hopefully, that is NOT indicative of their wedding services because they have been a go-to place for weddings in the 'Burg for as long as I can remember.
Legacy Hall in New Town
- http://www.jccegov.com/legacyhall/
- Using this location would involve having a caterer.
- This is an excellent location and a beautiful hall.
Historic Yorktown Freight Shed
- http://www.yorkcounty.gov/freightshed/index.html
- Using this location would involve having a caterer.
- The location is beautiful although not the easiest to get to. Having our day here would enable us to have our day at the beach because they are located at the base of the York River Bridge.
And a thought just occurred to me - suppose W&M had their Homecoming weekend during my wedding weekend
?!? That's a potential for disaster!I'm not going to borrow stress just yet by thinking of various "suppose" scenarios.
