A Place For Everything

We have finally chosen a venue for our wedding. After much turmoil and back-and-forth about which place was best it came down to two, one was just a little closer to our home and hearts... literally.

Mountain Branch Golf Club is in walking distance from where I spent my first 7 years of life and where my mother and her family spent most of their lives. I can remember when it was only woods and some houses close to the road.

Now there's a sprawling golf course and driving range just up the hill from my grandmother's house. We can see it from her yard and hear the music on thursdays in the summer when they have their special events.

They have a tent as we wanted and having the ceremony overlooking the golf course really reflected something both Mike and I would enjoy. We wanted to make sure it was close to us both and I think that's really been achieved choosing Mountain Branch.

I'm just glad that the venue choosing portion of this 7 month ordeal is over and we can start with more exciting things like a dress maybe ;)

In The Works

Planning really doesn't leave much time for blogging, much to my dismay.

We've been viewing and discussing all the venues, including 2 I haven't posted on Elkridge Furnace Inn and Mountain Branch.

So we're still trying to narrow that down.

Also I've met with one planner from Blush , and am meeting with a 2nd today from Blissful Affairs. Yesterday's meeting was wonderful and I'm hoping for either the same or a clear choice.

I've been spending some time with family and haven't been on my past weeks 24-7 wedding planning which was nice for a day. Still, I'm not ready to start school and feel as though this is slipping away from me. And of course missing Mike as always. Planning is much more difficult without him. <3
