Hi Bellame00 - My package info was pricing from 2007, I think Le Meridien changed their menus for 2008. In 2007 they had buffet option which I think they no longer offer now. For the most part, timing was fairly strict. The wedding had to end by 11pm if it was outdoors. The day after our wedding we saw another wedding that had their reception indoors and going on until 2-3am. They were fairly open about bringing alcohol from outside area and using other vendors. I used their florist, music and minister, but brought my own photographer.
I worked with Jessica and she's really great.
They did offer me a group rate but around April/May time frame I found a sale on Expedia that was cheaper than what they offerred so none of my guests used the hotel group rates.
Let me know if you have more questions or if you want to see more pictures!!
