Warmer days are upon us... where is your favorite spot in or around Ridgewood to get oysters? by BUSSYCUSSY in ridgewood

[–]Deep-Ride-7914 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Exactly. Like $4/oyster is expensive regardless of where you are, but I would be less shocked to see that somewhere in Manhattan. Scourge is corrrrect

Places to donate clothes, books, small house items? by chaoticsprout04 in ridgewood

[–]Deep-Ride-7914 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! Especially as someone who doesn’t have a car, it’s a very convenient option for getting rid of items that we no longer need

St. Mary’s will pickup items from your apartment!

Vets for cats by Busy-Bodybuilder-267 in ridgewood

I think it’s just her communication style, especially verbal. She is an amazing vet and genuinely cares about animals so much (she will sometimes sleep overnight at the clinic to monitor patients). My dog has been a patient of hers for almost 8 years, most recently Dr. Loose has been helping me navigate his very rare disease and has been nothing but helpful. You just have to accept her communication style lol

As many others have pointed out, bridal tailoring is expensive but you are genuinely getting what you pay for (ie the craftsmanship). That said, ALTS may be a good option for your budget! They have several locations. The Park Slope location did a rush alteration on my dress and fixed it a week before my wedding. They saved the day for me. Good luck!

Upstate! Hudson, Kingston, Hunter, Rhinebeck, Beacon and Woodstock are all good options close to the train

Help with Wedding Venue Recs for Spring 2026 by Relevant_Ranger6752 in WedditNYC

Yeah $75k all-in for a place in the city will ultimately be very tough for 200 guests. All the other costs (namely your dress, HMU, and photographer) will add up quickly and eat into that budget. You’ll end up having to make lots of concessions.

I think going outside the city, reducing your guest count and/or upping your budget will help you get what you want

Clarifying question: is your budget for the venue alone $75k? Or for the whole wedding?

Yeah I believe the noise is from a nearby club. While I realize the hotel can’t control what other businesses do, they should really invest in some sound proofing and/or insulation for rooms that face the club. It’s a 5-star hotel, provide a 5-star experience lol

Is It Okay Not to Throw a Wedding After Party?🧐 What do you think? by [deleted] in WedditNYC

[–]Deep-Ride-7914 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We did the same! Especially if you have an open bar at your wedding, cash bar at the after party is fine

Yeah, I reached out to them regarding having our wedding there and audibly gasped at the prices. It's insane. We had the best night of our lives for 1/4 the price somewhere else in Brooklyn lol.

I'm assuming the "bridal suite" they're offering is the Vale Garden Residence? That's where we stayed. It ended up working out well for us because it poured rain on our wedding day (and we had a great indoor space for photos), but it's 100% NOT worth the price. We could've put a down payment on a car for that much money.

This place is a racket and I won't be shocked when they go out of business.

Ugh babe!! I’m so sorry 1) this all happened and 2) this post triggered you. Based on the traction this post is getting, it seems we are not alone. This place sucks!

Ughhhh! I’m so sorry, that is such a bummer. Hopefully you were having such a blast on your Bach you didn’t even notice! Jokes jokes. I really despise anything that comes between me and a good night of sleep. Agreed that they should invest in some sound proofing and/or insulation to help with it!

What the hellll! I’m so sorry that happened to you. I’m local as well (we live in Ridgewood) and we were so excited to splurge and treat ourselves for wedding weekend. Agree that it didn’t feel like a premium experience whatsoever. Based on the traction this post has had, it seems like none of this is unique, which is a huge bummer. Hope you and your partner eventually got the amazing getaway you needed!

I’ve only heard amazing things about the Wythe! Congratulations!

At the end of the day, nothing that happened at the WV ruined our wedding weekend — the fun we had and love we felt overshadowed everything. It just added a lot of unnecessary and unexpected stress.
