Search for the Wedding Site has Begun!

Today I went to my first appointment to view a possible wedding sight.  Wow, so much info to consider.  I was telling my fiance just the other night that this would be easier if I was one of those girl's that had their wedding completely planned and was simply waiting for the man to come along.  I've known girl's that were like that!

Then again this is probably better because this way our wedding will be OUR wedding.  A reflection of what both of us want versus only what the bride wants.  I am thinking that the wedding date of December 1st will not be possible.  It appears to be popular!  But then again, I'm unsure December 1st works for us now. Due to the fact that my fiance's job is crazy busy the last day of the month and the first 2 days of the each month. I can't believe we didn't think of that aspect until last night! So I'm letting go of the December 1st target date.  I'm now focusing more on the weekends of the 8th or the 15th.  Some places give discounts for a Sunday wedding so we're not opposed to the 9th or 16th. 

I must admit I'm slowly falling in love with the 16th.  Proposed to on June 16th and married on December 16th...works for me!  Plus getting married on a Sunday allows the ladies from my side of the family to join with the ladies from my fiance's side for a bridal luncheon on Saturday the day before the wedding.

As for the place I checked out today...I'll keep looking.  Too pricey in my opinion for what is offered.  Not sure why but I'm not too into the wedding venue places that offer a chapel and reception all in one place.  The reason being is there seems to be a lack of personal touches.  It's all generic and neutral to satisfy the masses that get married there.  Which I understand!  Who knows I still might find one that awes me.  But so far it hasn't happened.
