Hello ladies. I have been lurking on this board for quite a while now, but I just got engaged on Valentine's Day and I wanted to offiically introduce mysefl. My name is Shannon and I am a full time RN and go to school fulltime as well. My fiance RJ is a software engineer and we have been together for about 3 1/2 years now. We live together and have two very spoiled dogs.
My main concern at this point it to pick a ceramony/reception hall for about 80 guests with a budget of 6,000$ total for ceremony, reception, and open bar, and decorations. We really want something casual not crazy fancy, but still elegant. We would love for this venue to be on the beach and all in one location. As we don't want our guests to have to travel from place to place. A hotel on a beach would be the best however, with our tight budget I dont know if this would be feasable. So if any one has information about affordable beach weddings in Clearwater, The St. Pete Beaches, and Anna Maria island that has a ceremony and reception in one place preferable hotel on site or at least in walking distance. I appreciate any and all help and I am looking forward to getting to know you ladies!
Thank you,
Shannon
