reception? anyone?

We are still hung up on this reception site. I swear I have looked in to possibly every possible venue in the Springfield and Branson area and nothing just screams WEDDING to me. The one place that we were so excited to see turned out to be an absolute bust, with the actual "hall" being in a storage garage- literally. In fact, they used giant sheets to cover the garage doors. The pictures on their sites made it look so pretty, but in person it was just...not. I wanted to cry- I had such high hopes for that place. Now I'm resorting to some..unconventional means and emailing the local art galleries, hoping that they might rent out their spaces. This is why we wanted our reception in Kansas City, everything here we can find and it's just absolutely perfect. But everything here is expensive, and we dont really want to shell out a minimum of $20 grand (yes, I said $20 GRAND) on food. But honestly, how perfect would this place be??



Guhh, I just LOVE it. It has the modern, urban style and the rustic feel of a fall wedding. Too bad they arent flexible with their menus, and for the SMALLEST plate, still comes out to be close to $15,000 for 100 people.

Hopefully we'll hear back from the art galleries soon.

Me

I'm a newlywed with a love for the little things in life- sipping a cappuccino at a local coffee shop in the sunshine, art that seems to make no sense, the smile my husband gets sometimes when I catch him watching me, the cool breeze in the fall when the leaves are changing, my dog when she has somehow manages to wedge herself under my hand and I find myself petting her unknowingly, the smell of freshly cut grass, the sounds of the ocean, taking photos of instances you can never get back. I feel too much about things but may not always say it. I adore my mother. You'll find I take a lot of pictures. La vita รจ bella.
