star this review starred report as inappropriateI purchased 5 tickets late Friday night for Monet Evenings on Saturday night as a pre-Father's Day outing with my husband, father and rest of the immediate family. It was absolutely the best experience! The NY Botanical Gardens are always lovely, but they really outdo themselves with these special displays they feature. Not only were the greenhouse contents spectacular, the smells were gorgeous too. The music for the evening was fantastic too (French chanteuse singing Edith Piaf tunes) and we couldn't have asked for better weather. The welcome cocktail was refreshing and gave you a nice little kick start to the evening. Bring a blanket, some bread, cheese, fruit and your own wine (yes, you're allowed to bring your own food & drink) and you'll be set for the evening!
