ROR Plantation Restaurant table set up/pics??

[JM2010]

What is the table set up like for the Plantation Restaurant reception? I'm trying to do a seating plan and have heard that the place is L shaped so I don't know how the tables would be set up. We have booked the upper level. Is it done as a huge long table or can there be individual tables set up?

 

If anyone has pics of the restaurant I'd love to see them!!

 

Thanks a bunch!! = )

Ill try to find it for you but it is L shaped. Its sort of weird because the bride and groom and turned at one angle, then the rest of the people is in a long row. Dont seems great for socializing but it will do.

Do they use the "L" shape for weddings with less than 12 people? I was thinking it would be nice to sit in the middle on one side of the table. We're going to be a small group.

Unfortunately I dont like the set up either...Im thinking about scrapping put myself and fi at the head of the table in the end of the "T" or "L"....I think we'll just sit right square in the middle and be between all our guests........hopefully anywho...

Is the Plantation restaurant mainly for private receptions? I read that you can have semi-private receptions there if there are too many weddings booked at Mammee Bay. Is this correct? Thanks.

ames - I believe that's correct. I read on another thread that if too many weddings are booked at the Mammee Bay restaurant, you will be moved to the Plantation restaurant. The Plantation restaurant can also be booked for private receptions for either 2 or 4 hours.

thanks hiccups! we are still trying to decide if we want to pay for the private reception or go with the semi-private reception at mammee bay (which seems like the more popular choice). what are you doing for your reception? your wedding is coming up soon. you must be getting excited

 

does anyone have more pictures of plantations? mammee looks nice and it would be nice to see how they compare.

I contacted Chandlyn recently and she said you can also have tables of 8 or 10 set up at the Plantations restaurant. I'm going with that plan instead of the T shaped thing. We've rented the upper level so I'm not sure if things are different for the lower level.

ames - I haven't decided on what we're doing for our reception yet and actually my wedding date isn't until next Feb. 2011 too!!!

 

I'm also curious to see pics of set up.
