    When are you getting married?

    I can't say anything regarding the GABP, but we are getting married at PBS, and I am SO EXCITED!  The room is gorgeous (modern gorgeous, not old school gorgeous) and has three story windows facing downtown. We will be able to go down on the field. 

    Parking will be an issue at either.  I also wonder who does the catering for GABP.  We are required to use Aramark.

    Have you looked online at their pictures?  Have you toured both?

    Just looking online, one difference is the ball park tour.  It appears you may have to pay for a ballpark tour for your guests at GABP, while it is free at PBS.

    GABP appears to look over the field as well as the River, which PBS does not.

    Do you like football or baseball better?

    Paul Brown Stadium is where we wanted to have our wedding. But we just couldn't afford it with 300+ guests, unfortunately. My vote is PBS! :)

    We are having our reception at Paul Brown and are super excited as well!! Alex is great to work with and I love the view and the room! I thought about GABP, but I'm way more into the bengals. GL!
