Yesterday we went to check out a casino ballroom for the reception. Absolutely gorgeous! Then I hear the words, "We have a $6,000 minimum food charge." I almost fainted. Just reminds me of how clueless I was before this whole process...thinking we could pay a couple hundred for a church and a couple hundred for reception venue. We could bring our own food, and make our own flowers. Little did I know insurance policies and licenses and permits and a whole bunch of crap is involved with doing it like that. Of and of course everything is alot more expensive than I thought. You never know how hard and stressful it is until you actually start planning. Not to mention the huge list of things venues won't let you do. Chris told me today..."I think you have been watching too many platinum wedding shows!" And I think he is right. For the right price I am sure you can do whatever you want.
Anyway...This morning we went to a historic house on Fairfield. It was pretty. Price was good, space inside was awesome. We can bring our own food...decorate however...use sparklers. So whats the problem your asking? They are booked on our date and 3 months after. Crap!
At least we have 3 more places to look. 2 appointments tomorrow and 1 on Friday. I am getting pretty nervous but everything happens for a reason right? There must be "the perfect" place waiting for us!
