Well after a month and a half of crazy searching and trying to get everyone to agree on a place.....we wound up picking the one reception hall in my home town!!! It's pretty ironic I guess since it was just about the first place we checked out and I have been to a wedding there...Bayview House at Captain Bill's in Bay Shore. It's close by, we're the only Saturday wedding (Nov.) so we can start and end any time we want, the place is large enough so we aren't tied into a set number of guests, it's beautiful and elegant but casual and relaxed at the same time, etc. I'm SO excited to have a 'home' for our wedding, and now the fun can begin:) Luckily my FSIL is getting married a few months before us because she has done so much legwork already. Please tell me the rest is easier than picking the place???
Congrats on booking your site! I know as soon as I did, things finally felt official for me
