    A few things - 

    1) Lose the caps. It feels like you are screaming at us.

    2) What is your budget per person?  Most waterfront venues here are catering halls so while they are more expensive, they include your linens, catering, alcohol, etc.

    3) What month(s) are you considering?  Venues prices vary greatly depending on the month.

    You made my wedding day complete.

    check out Georgio's, Lombardi's - on the Sound and on the Bay, and the Three Village Inn (which is absolutely beautiful)...you can also look out east depending on what time of year you are getting married and see Panoramic or Gurnys. A newer option that I hear is really nice and on the more affordable side is The Mansion at Woodside Acres.

    also sent you a PM since this info sometimes gets lost.

    Best,
    Karen & Arnold

    We booked The Meadowedge at West Sayville Country Club, right on the sound.
    Our cost is $76 tax and gratuity included per person open bar for a Saturday in December 2012. Minimum 100 adult guests. They include quite a bit in that price and the manager, is absolutely amazing. http://www.lessings.com/location_home.aspx?uniid=13. Even in the winter, the grounds are really nice. I imagine during the summer, they are gorgeous.

    Look into the Swan Club!  Very affordable and you get a lot.  Beautiful gardens on the water as well!

    Just booked Lombardi's on the Bay in Patchogue for my May 2012 wedding....beautiful and many different options. Prices were reasonalble (75-80 plus tax/gratuities). My second choice would have been the Riviera.

    I've performed weddings at the West Sayville CC.  It is beautiful.  My daughter was married at The Bourne Mansion in Oakdale.  You can't go wrong with a Lessing wedding.
