    I'm trying to figure out where to stay the night before the wedding, and where to get ready.  I live in a super tiny unphotogenic apt in Brooklyn, so i don't want to ready there.  My parents also have a small apt in Manhattan, so i can't get ready there.

    I'll have my mom and 5 bridesmaids getting ready with me, along with 2 hair & makeup artists and our photographer.

    I'm mostly looking for suggestions on the lower east side/soho area since we want to be close to the williamsburg bridge since our ceremony and reception are in Brooklyn. 

    Any suggestion for hotels with rooms/suites large enough to fit all of us comfortably?  I'd love a place with a great view so we can get awesome pictures.

    What about Le Jolie in Williamsburg?  It's between the Beford and Lorimer stops so you'll be very close to the bridge.  http://www.hotellejolie.com/index.cfm

    Some friends just stayed at Hotel on Rivington which looks beautiful...   http://www.hotelonrivington.com/

    Our hotel block at actually at Hotel Le Jolie, lol.  The rooms are too small for me to get ready in, and I really want to get ready in Manhattan so I can get city shots.  I grew up in Manhattan so I really want the city shots. :)

     

    I'll definitely look into the Rivington!

    Any other suggestions?  I know there's a bunch of New Yorkers here!  Surely I'm not the only one who needs a hotel suite!

    Ink48 suites are pretty affordable and there are tall windows with water views.. sort of in the middle of nowhere though.

    I'm getting married in Tribeca so I wanted to be downtown (i live downtown but FI is getting ready at our apartment).  I'm getting ready at the Marriott Downtown (on West St).  We booked their second largest suite which is 950 sq ft.  I have 9 girls getting ready with me plus the hair/makeup people, plus the photographer, so we needed space.  I'm know there are more beautiful hotels but I wanted something spacious and not a million dollars.
