You guys...the venue has been chosen!
Well, at least informally. The contract is being drawn up and sent to me to be signed soon. But we have our date locked in, so...it should be all good.
This is where our reception will be. The actual ceremony will be at a nearby park.
The Lodge At Leathem Smith

What really sold me was that it was basically all inclusive- staff, bar staff, tables/linens, catering, lodging, atmosphere, planner/coordinator...really almost everything. Plus, everything is personalized. The menu is not a "Choose option A, B, or C". They will tailor it based upon your tastes and budget. Excited to work with the staff there on our special day!
Speaking of the special day- the theme shall be....
VINTAGE FALL FUN!
Everything fall colors- yellow, red, orange...and some other colors thrown into the mix. We plan on incorporating leaves and other autumn-y things too. Maybe apple cider! Mmmmmm.
Fun- there will be lots of fun and games at our wedding. Board games, card games, outdoor games, maybe even kickball? Who knows?!?! So, if you are at this wedding, please bring your game face and a playful attitude!
Vintage- Lots of vintage flair. We've already started collecting various old postcards and old comic books for decoration/centerpieces.
After getting our contract signed and our deposit put in, I think the next big steps will be: Deciding on a menu and....*gasp* a wedding dress?!?!?!
I don't even know where to start on this whole wedding dress thing. I am so indecisive!
Anyway- that's it for now!
Ciao!
