For those of you whom have booked at VYC/JA, my concerns are: -my reception is on the second floor and the only outside space that my guests have is a small patio with stairs leading to a large area below. I was told that my guests were not permitted to go down the stairs. It seems unfair that the reception on the first floor has access to all of the outside area below. I don't want any possibility for contention between guests of both weddings. -Next, any recommendations for pictures if it rains. I would not want my wedding pictures to resemble posed, indoor 'prom' pictures. -Also, I spied on a wedding (from the dock area) last May and I noticed that there were not many outside tables set up for the cocktail hour. That is why we are having it on the water isn't it? Also, the outside area needed to be painted. I am hoping that will be addressed before I have my wedding there. **Any feedback will be appreciated! ** Good Luck Ladies!

My wedding is in 75 days at VYC/JA. I understand your concern about the outside patio. I know when I chose whether I wanted my reception upstairs or downstairs I was told that we would either have the outside patio for the cocktail hour or for the reception. I like the upstairs room better so I guess we will have it for the cocktail hour. (I am going to go down there and check out how many tables they have outside though now that you mention it.) I have the problem as you with pictures...I just don't know where to go if it rains, but I guess I'll figure that out. (if you have any suggestions I'd love to hear them - I really want beach pictures so I'm praying for no rain).
