We have made it in.... Philly here we come!

Tonight we visited a venue that I happen to run across the other night. Since we've had one let down (venue price way over budget & not enough amenities), after another (second issue with pricing that is over our budget but may be more do able than...

We just got word on what the cost would be for our second venue proposal. At almost $13,000 the first venue was a bust as it was way over our budget. Before reality hit we wanted to spend no more than $10,000 on everything. However, as...

We have 70 guest. The venue we like holds 95 for a sit down dinner if you use 2 rooms. I really just want to use one room, and have the second as a lounge/dance floor. That is how it is set up for regular nights and it makes the place look fabulous....

Today we revisited a venue that we liked for a tasting. The food was G_O_O_D!!! So tomorrow we will send our menu and await a proposal which will show us what it all means in dollars and cents. This is the stressful part.....waiting. What makes this...

Now we all know that a lot of people can't deal with the notion that people are gay, and that even thinking about gay marriage makes them want to scream & shout foul. So of course in our own family we have the same kind of bias, but me I'm the type...

It ends on the 12th but I was tempted to go. I decided against it since I haven't even secured a venue. I was just wondering what the experience was like for anyone here who has gone.

I was updating my account and didn't realize I had hit the 'mother of the bride' button before saving. So now I am listed as the mother of the bride and do not have access to fix it. I've just written to weddingwire but as I wait I thought maybe...

Well the wait is over and it is not good news. We received the cost info for this site that we fell in love with and it is just way to much. I mean we could afford to pay almost $13,000 for a venue that we can use for both the ceremony &...

Did anyone go?, if so what was your take on it? It was just 'ok' for us. I did like some of the gowns in the fashion show & tasted some great cake!

Anyone else is the process of hearing from prospective venus in terms of what your wedding will cost? This is where we are after finding a place we really loved and then tasting their great food. Our email went out today of what we would want if we...

Do you think it is important to you to have a wedding party, or is it more for the person(s) you are asking to be in your wedding party? We are thinking that we do not want to burden anyone with the finance of being in our wedding so we are opting...

The more I think about having our wedding, the more I feel the air coming out of my bubble. What started out as an exciting adventure, has turned into 'you must be kidding me'. It's really the money issue that has taken away from all my 'romantic'...
