Well, we did it...we booked our hall today...

FH and I just came back from booking our hall! We moved the date, and got a MUCH better price. We started at Friday 7/21/06 $80pp, not getting all the things we wanted. Now, it's Thurs 6/29/06 with everything we wanted plus a few extras for $59pp!!!

That day is a Thursday, which is the Thur before July 4, which is that nect Tues. So, only day people would need to take off (if they wanted) was Friday, and have a possibly extra long weekend. At ym job, I'll have Monday the 3rd off.

We looked into Monday July 3, but that was $70pp and still would need to add a few things to make it the way we wanted it.

I am still a little scared of the Thursday thing, but hey, $$$$ was the BIGGEST issue and we didn't want to budge from the time of year.

SO, it's going to be Jericho Terrace, Thursday June 29, 2006!!!

YEAH!!!

Oh and after the large deposit and 1 more payment by April 05, half the reception will already to be paid for!!!!

It will be beautiful and perfect with the long weekend to follow -- lots of people take that Friday as a half day anyway.

Re: Well, we did it...we booked our hall today...

All your words are very reassuring. Plus, the CH is currently to start at 7, we may change it to 8:30, so people don't HAVE to take that day off too! We'll see. Plus FH doesn't want to miss cocktail hr for pics, so we need to figure in that time too. Church (as of now) is 4:30, but may change seeing as that was with our original date.

Ok gals, going to go pack! FH and I are going to FL for a few days...ahhhhhhh now I can REALLY relax!!
