The Ghost of Foley's – General Chat

Thanks for the invite

I didn't like you in 2012.

Phil came.

Mikey did a drive by to drop off the booster. I still owe him a demitasse set.

A lot of places have minimum number of guests. The lowest minimum I could find in New Jersey was fucking 130. I can't imagine what it would be like near NYC. Some place in Freehold, NJ told me their minimum was 250! I was shocked.

 

Keep that it in mind.

 

This whole wedding shit is insane. Truly, it is.

Yeah, seems that way. It's tough. I told her that I know she wants a really nice wedding but we aren't having many people so we aren't going t o have this grande wedding that lots of people have.

Have you looked into Bailey Arboretum?

Not yet. I'll google it in a bit.

"Didn't like" is an understatement :cheers:

I worked a few parties at Bailey Arboretum. It's a great place for smaller parties. They can put up a tent outdoors on the lawn or have the whole thing inside. Plus they have the capability to have the ceremony at the same place if that's something you would like.

Ceremony there is what we want. I rather not do it in a church, and my fiance' is OK with that as well.

I'm open to ideas.

 

And to everyone talking about the destination wedding, that was why we were hesitant on having a destination wedding. It's just not worth the trouble either. Don't want anyone feeling the pressure of deciding whether or not they should come.

Look into "Pompeii" in West Hempstead, that's where I had my wedding. If you're having 50-60, it's certainly big enough, we had 100 at ours. We also got a good price since we know the owner, if you mention my name, and i'd give you the ladies direct number, i'm sure she would come up with a good price for you guys. I also have a DJ for you as well. If you still have my cell, shoot me a text and we can talk.

We also did our ceremony there before everything, I have a reverend as well if you need.

Of course Johnny would have a DJ guy and a wedding venue guy

Haha, my uncle is a DJ and well connected, have connections all over the place, Jimmy boy!

I'll shoot you my phone number.

There are a bunch of loft like places in the city and Brooklyn that would be good for 50-60 guests. If near DUMBO then you'd have the perfect spot for wedding photos.

Check The Foundry in LIC.

Damn I was just there on Friday haha. My mom works on 40th and Broadway

It was awesome. Really cool to work a party where Carl Lewis casually walks by and all.

Has the news of the Fort McMurray wildfire got down there yet? Destroyed 1,800 homes and businesses so far and they're barely hanging on to the downtown core by the skin of their teeth. They evacuated the entire city, 80,000 people including workers, not a single death, no looting, none of that horseshit.

Amazing.

BTW, Karan, I'm in Edmonton, and I actually like it. Maybe because the weather has been absolutely tropical, but so far so good.

I hope you don't live in Twin Brooks between 111th and Rabbit Hill Road because I'm going to ruin your summer if you do :)

Yeah. Been following recently. Dry weather and record warmth isn't helping matters.

Happen to stumble on Bretzky's Twitter this morning...

Of course he's an egg.

Thought the exact same thing lmao

Watched the Godfather Epic. Not a good choice. Great movies, but a 7.5 hour chronological cut of the first two is a lot to sit through.

It was nice to see the story chronologically though.

WOW !!! Now that is an effort I'm waiting for a cold snowy day to watch the Epic. I loved Godfather 1 & 2 and it is tough to turn off once I start watching.
