I know you can tar the directories and by use of a text file with the folders you don't want listed in there, the tar will exclude anything you don't want. Then just move the tarball to where you want and untar.

I don't remember how exactly to do it, but I've used it on copying huge photoset directories with tons of folders and files I didn't want and tons that I did.
