Belle Mer brides - off peak or not?!

Hi everyone! I am going to visit Belle Mer in Newport soon for our wedding and I am absolutely in *love* with the venue. We were originally thinking about a September wedding, but are flexible with our dates. We have a good budget, but considering Belle Mer is pretty pricey we are thinking about an off-peak date (say beginning of November). Although we might be able to manage the September pricing, we are concerned that there will be no room for any fun extras (especially with the 20% admin fee). I'm wondering if any Belle Mer brides who have had or are having a wedding there during the off-peak season can give some insight as to just how much cheaper the prices are and any suggestions on questions to ask or ways to negotiate. Thanks! :)

    Hi itsAnna again, I wanted to add that when you eliminate the cake and dessert at Belle Mer they will charge you $2.50 per person for coffee and tea in addition to bringing any outside cakes from bakery. My wedding cost was around $8,500 but when you add the tax and administration fee you have to add to that total just under $2,000, the tax and administration fee is quite high especially if your having 100 or more guest. I hope this helps. Good luck Anna
