Waiting for a venue hold....

Heather, on October 6, 2012 at 7:50 PM Posted in Planning 0 28

So we looked at our #1 venue (Mendenhall Inn) this morning and they have 5/25/13 on hold but have not heard from the other bride yet. We LOVED it and we can do ceremony and reception all within our budget, plus our dj is available that day. We have to wait until they hear back from her, they give them a 24 hour courtesy to confirm. FINGERS CROSSED, this will solve all my frustrations with the whole venue finding process, please please please let us be able to book!!!!!

    YES, I posted a few times about my frustration LOL. We had another venue on hold but we weren't happy with it, we didn't put any money down, it was just a courtesy hold. And we just couldn't find anything we like in the location we wanted, so we just threw it out there and decided let's change our date so we can do what we wanna do where we wanna do it! haha

    @Lisa hehe, yay! Me too! My mom said it would make her so happy, her bday is May 9th and she wanted me to have it sooner becuase of her health. This would seriously solve all of my issues!! Might have to get my butt in gear a little more to plan a little quicker! But we have the dj and florist, won't need transportation since everything is in the same place, and i have some MUA's in mind. Just need an officiant, dress, bms are trying on dresses thanksgiving weekend, FH's tuxes.... already have invitation/print stuff person in mind...

    @heather -- I think this is the same place that Carole's daughter had her wedding in August. Might be worth a PM to her before you slap anything down.

    It is!! I read everything she said about it. Most people have a lot of good things to say, and all the details she said they missed I will make sure to double check lol. We really loved it and it is exactly what we want. There is no where else around that has what they have for the price. Tax and gratuity is included in their pricing which makes everything a whole lot easier!

    Lol ok that definitely makes me feel better :-) I posted on facebook to see how people feel about the whole memorial day thing and just as we suspected everyone was very accepting, since we would give them plenty of notice... I am so excited, and this will definitely get me going! We still have to do engagement pics and hoping to get our save the date together quickly!!!

    Sorry --my comment read different that what I meant. I wasn't trying to talk you out of anything, just that she could probably give you some negotiating pointers and such.

    And as far as time, we got married ~9 months after we got engaged, so you will be all good Smiley smile

    Oh haha i knew what you meant ;-) Sounds good to me! I am starting to get really excited because I have been stressing about the venue, I emailed them to let them know I definitely want that date and to let me know if the other girl confirms. Hopefully they call her tomorrow and she will tell them she already found another place but forget to let them know LOL.
