BRIDE- TO -BE - >crescent beach club / lands end

i really don't like posting (and never have) on this board because it was created for newlyweds not brides-to-be, so please accept my apologies. i just wanted to ask the advise of those that have been there done that. we really want a reception site on the water. not only overlooking the water, but right on the beach. the 2 places that i have looked at are lands end and the crescent beach club. the crescent is right on the water, lands end overlooks the water. just wanted your opinion and experiences (if you have) w/ these places. my FI hasn't seen either, but is not thrilled about the idea of the restaurant at the crescent being open during the reception (doesn't bother me). i really like the idea that anyone can take a stroll on the beach at anytime during the reception. please help! any other suggestions for a beach reception site is welcomed. ceremony is at our lady queen in centerport. i am sure this is the last thing you want to be thinking about, but your input is greatly appreciated.

thanks again

if you read my post correctly i began by saying: i really don't like posting (and never have) on this board because it was created for newlyweds not brides-to-be, so please accept my apologies. never thought i would get the response of 'this is really annoying' i did not send the email directly to you, nor did i ask you to respond. just thought i would throw the question out and if it applied to someone, then they would respond. you could have ignored the post instead of responding so negatively.

thank you so much for responding. as mentioned, it's really not my place to post here, but was hoping that someone had a wedding at 1 of these places and could offer some advise.

thanks again!

thanks for your support. i value the advise that 'some' of the newlyweds offer because you have been there done that and still have the time and desire to help us brides-to-be with our wedding planning dilemmas. i appreciate your friendly post. it makes me wonder why people are so bitter and hostile. you are newlyweds, isn't it supposed to be a time of happiness and bliss? well i guess for some it is!!!

thanks again
