Scotto Brothers collected over 500 toys for the organization this evening and everyone who attended had an amazing time!  Children relished in desserts of all kinds including  cotton candy, popcorn, ice cream and custom creations from the chefs at The Fox Hollow.  Santa and his elves brought smiles to everyone’s faces.  The Marines color guard performed and Ladislao A. Godoy, a local marine and Suffolk County Police officer, was awarded for his dedication and bravery in serving our community & country.  Mr. Anthony Scotto was also awarded for his generosity and commitment to helping the community.  This was a great way to kick off the Holiday Season!

Paradise Found – The Garden Oasis at the new Chateau Briand
is like nothing you’ve ever seen.

Do you love tropical paradises or the vibrant color and chic atmosphere of South Beach in Miami? Imagine packing up your family and friends and having the party of your lives in such an exotic location. Well, now you can…without ever leaving Long Island. Hip, posh and ultra cool, the new multi-million-dollar Outdoor Garden Oasis at the Chateau Briand redefines "destination" events and celebrations.

From the moment you set eyes on this wondrous outdoor venue, you’ll feel like you’ve checked in to a magnificent five-star tropical resort or a trendy South Beach hotel where you and your guests can party and relax "al fresco" in the lap of luxury. (Another Mojito or Pina Colada anyone?)

In keeping with the Scotto Brothers’ unwavering vision and tradition of creating one-of-a-kind event and celebratory spaces, the Chateau Briand’s Outdoor Garden Oasis is a sparkling jewel…

…A place that transforms the "same-old, same-old" into something totally unexpected and different.

…A place that transcends traditional restaurants and catering halls, creating a whole new vibe in a fresh, chic atmosphere that invites great times and memories that will last a lifetime.

…And most importantly, a place that offers you an exciting opportunity to break the mold and host the social or corporate event of your dreams, from cocktail parties and fundraisers to wedding ceremonies and celebrations.

More of an "artscape" than a landscape, the Chateau Briand’s sprawling, multi-level Outdoor Garden Oasis blends the best of form and function, as well as the Chateau’s signature art deco design with spectacular natural and contemporary man-made features. The result is a truly awe-inspiring living, flowing masterpiece that will titillate all of your senses.

Imagine you and your guests strolling between majestic swaying palm trees (where else can you find real, mature palms growing outdoors in Nassau County?) while being serenaded by over sixty hidden stereo speakers filling the air with soft music. Beautiful flowers and foliage punctuate the landscape with splashes of color, and cascading waterfalls and serene reflection pools add a sense of calm and tranquility to the environment.

Talk and mingle in multiple lounge and cabana-like areas and private coves that offer ample seating on comfy oversized couches. All illuminated by glowing sconces, up-lights and candles. Or chat and drink in front of a colossal fire pit that will transfix your gaze and warm your heart.

You’ll also find a grand pavilion on the grounds complete with sheer curtains billowing in the breeze, cool paddle ceiling fans and generous communal seating where you and your guests can share good food, drink and conversation. It’s an idyllic setting to be wined and dined by the Chateau Briand’s friendly and attentive wait staff that always provides excellent service.

Best of all, you’ll enjoy an amazing array of culinary delights prepared by the Chateau’s award-winning chefs who are committed to providing the perfect customized menu for your affair as well as the most discriminating palates.

So put the luggage, sunblock and passport away and take a vacation from the ordinary and mundane. You don’t have to go far to have a truly amazing affair with an exotic flair and spectacular ambiance all its own. Everything you could possibly desire is right at the new Chateau Briand.

It’s official.  Body English Tuesdays at The Chateau will be opening on Tuesday June 1st.  Look for your invitation in the mail.  If you’re not on our mailing list log onto www.bodyenglishtuesdays.com to register.  See you there!
