help- need help with church!

so the wedding is in 6 months, and FH and I cannot decide on a church. i tried to break down the 2 churches we're considering into pros and cons, but it's still so hard. aaah! someone please help!!

GARDEN CITY COMMUNITY CHURCH
PROS::
1) it's simply beautiful and FH and I both love it
2) it's close to reception hall (20 min)
3) close to many hotels
4) easy parking
5) they are flexible with music

CONS::
1) they have a wedding before at 1pm, whcih the lady
promises should be out by 3pm, and we should be able
to start at 3:30pm, which means huge potential for
future chaos
2) they are $$$$
3) we may have to use the female minister (both us and ourparents would prefer a male pastor)

CHURCH IN THE GARDENS::

PROS::
1) close to my parents home
2) sentimental value since its near where i grew up
3) only wedding going on

CONS:
1) dark inside and small (max capacity is 200ppl)
2) no flash photography during ceremony (same as garden city)
3) the aisle is L-shaped, so that the bride enters from the side fo the church rather than the back.
4) parking might be difficult
5) far from reception hall (45 min)
6) expensive, but not as expensive

any thoughts??

Did you call the Community Church in East Williston? It's a beautiful church and the pastor is really nice.

That's tough. Personally, I would insist on flash photography being allowed, and keep looking. I don't know the area, though.
Good luck!!!
