Your best bet w/ o a doubt is Chinatown, even NYC shot glasses there are so much cheaper or go to the Chelsea flea market. </p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/nyc-cocktail-reception-wedding#post-48543 Mon, 12 May 2008 09:59:33 +0000 meri7117 48543@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>Ooops: I mean August 07!

We LOVED working with Brooke at Creative Edge Catering, and their food was amazing (our wedding was attended by a lot of people who regularly attend galas/weddings in the City, and all said that it was the best &quot;event&quot; food they had ever had: top shelf quality and presentation). We did 9 types of passed hors d'oeuvres, a veggie station, a passed &quot;small bowl,&quot; an &quot;amuse bouche&quot; station where the chef turned out amazing small plates, and passed dessert bites. It wasn't cheap, but it didn't break the bank either, and best of all Creative Edge was incredibly attentive and totally understood our perfectionist (and foodie) tendencies. For favors, we gave out &quot;I Love NY&quot; t-shirts that we haggled for in Chinatown ($1.10 a piece!) tied in a square with red raffia. Also, our flowers were done by Banchet: we used their &quot;minijewels&quot; for $35/piece, which looked great on our high top tables with barstools. Good luck! I wish we could have the party every year!! </p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/nyc-cocktail-reception-wedding#post-48514 Mon, 12 May 2008 09:10:31 +0000 west 48514@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>black and white cookies are great favors</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/nyc-cocktail-reception-wedding#post-48469 Sun, 11 May 2008 23:14:28 +0000 trinyc 48469@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>Thanks so much, any tips are welcome. </p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/nyc-cocktail-reception-wedding#post-48450 Sun, 11 May 2008 21:02:08 +0000 mrlong 48450@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>i would love to help.... we got married march 15th right before easter and we did filled choco eggs for our favors </p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/nyc-cocktail-reception-wedding#post-48409 Sun, 11 May 2008 13:15:20 +0000 trinyc 48409@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>My fiance and I have been living together for 6 yrs and are tying the knot. We want to keep the wedding simple and have decided on a church&nbsp;ceremony followed by a cocktail reception late July.</p> <p>I am scrambling to get everything&nbsp;organized and would really welcome the input from fellow bees.&nbsp;Fortunately&nbsp;we are able to get the cocktail reception venue free of charge but&nbsp;need to figure out:&nbsp;</p> <p>Do you know of a great caterer? Bartenders? <br />Any&quot;NYC&quot; favors we can give our guests?</p> <p>Please give me any rec's and suggestion ...desperately need them!</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
