Again, not until next year. You're so ahead of schedule right now, that if you speak to them now, I'm sure you'll end up changing your mind at least on one thing come next year.
One thing you CAN do is schedule for tastings as MANY times as you want (and I would suggest it!). I believe that they do it monthly, on a Saturday, and you get to taste everything on the cocktail hour menu, and some other extras.

What centerpieces are you girls doing?? I am doing high centerpieces with the spiral votive holder. I will be using light pink roses and creme hydrangea. I am adamant against seeing no green (my colors are brown, light pink and creme) so the centerpiece will be really full. I want to do brown menus with creme writing and votive placecards.

---

LOL.. I am doing the same CP.. but with Blue in it. I dont want to see green either.. not even in my Bo-k

I was ahead of the game, too, and had like 3-4 months of NOTHING... so u know what I did with all the time on my hands? I did my own favors: click here to see (see scrolling down for more pics). I wanted to add a personal touch to our wedding, and took that time 'off' to create everything myself... I $$$aved a lot of money doing it that way, too!

I cant wait.... Does anyone have any more pics??

Oh yeah quick question... I want to take alot of pics on the grounds.. Were there alot of brides doing that at the same time?

---

We took a ton of pictures outside and in the lobby. I NEVER saw another bride or wedding party during this time. They did an excellent job of spacing it out.
