A venue has been selected! It's funny, yesterday as we revisited our final two selections, I really thought we'd both lean towards a certain one.
To our surprise, we found that the more modern looking facility with fabulous views actually lacked space. The venue was set for the exact same amount that we anticipate. The chairs and tables were so close together it would make moving about quite the task. Second negative...the dance floor was much smaller than we remember. No way Jose...we need dancing space! My girls and I need to get our boogie on! Over to the other venue, wow, what a difference decor makes. We've seen this venue undecorated and were slightly underwhelmed with the little details (carpeting, window treatments). I kept trying to see past those and seeing the venue decorated yesterday provided just the umph we needed to see it for all it's worth. The wrap around patio is by far my favorite feature...all the windows in the room are actually sliding glass doors (which we'll probably have open) that open to a lovely patio with views of the golf course below.
That being said, we actually selected the very FIRST venue that we looked at. Now...the negotiation process begins. Wish us luck, I think my very financially savvy fiance will be able to ink a deal by week's end.
Up next...Honeymoon shopping.
