Revisiting the Venue

Over the weekend Kevin and I had a second meeting with the wedding venue to make sure everything's on track. We're a little behind where we should be, but I actually feel a lot better about this whole thing than I had been. It probably didn't help that I had my first wedding-based nightmare this week, in which our photographer refused to take pictures because it was raining and we had to share a ballroom with two other groups. It was basically a worst case scenario, which means there's no way things could possibly go that bad.

Anyway, we were able to meet with the actual wedding coordinator and get some definitive answers to our questions, previously we had met with the head of catering who didn't seem to have a clear idea of the big picture. The biggest takeaways are that the rooms aren't as small as we feared they would be, though they are smaller than typical hotel rooms. More exciting it that we get to offer our guests a choice of four different dinner options. I'm really excited for the tasting, which should happen in January.

The next big things we need to focus on are flowers and cake. So be prepared to hear about those adventures. We also need to order invitations, and send those out within the next few months. This thing feels like it's getting close! I think we're on top of everything though. Or at least we will be soon.
