A Sleepy Hollow Country Club Wedding on a Cold and Windy Day in October
Day of Coordination by NY Engagements, LLC
The day started with the girls getting pampered by their hair stylist Nicole from Beauty by Nicole and their makeup artist was none other than Meredith Hayman.
The grounds of Sleepy Hollow Country Club are spectacular. The perfect setting for an outdoor wedding is on the terrace of the main "Estate" where it overlooks the rolling golf course and beyond.
It was so cold, the coordinators kept the guests indoors to stay warm until the very last minute when they were asked to find a seat and were greeted by Suzanne Chapman and the other ladies in the string trio from Maura and Co. I gave them a lot of credit to withstand the cold and play for an hour in frigid temperatures! It was a very touching ceremony as the bride's father officiated the wedding.
At the end of the ceremony, guests waved these adorable muslin fabric flags with "Yay" and "Yippee!" signs on them. You can also see the wedding programs. Since it was so windy outside, the flags and programs were passed out by the ushers indoors as guests waited to be seated.
At the reception, the room was decorated beautifully with large centerpieces provided by Diana Gould.
The cocktail spread included a seafood station, sushi station, and antipasto station along with many passed hors d'ouevres.
At the end of the event, guests were shuttled off in buses back to the hotel but didn't leave empty handed. They received a tote bag with the Sleepy Hollow logo on the front and when they returned to the hotel, a pizza cart awaited them. During the couple of weeks before the wedding when we started working on the day of plans, we learned that the site doesn't allow outside food vendors to serve food outdoors so we had to relocate the pizza to the hotel for as soon as they got off the buses. It worked out perfectly and we saved the bride and groom from the stress of handling the change of plans on their own!
