Hi all,
I was married in a small ceremony at City Hall in NY in August and my husband and I are planning a bigger wedding next year with family and friends. We will be having a third celebration in Sweden later next summer, so are trying our best to keep the receptions as inexpensive as possible. We will most likely have approximately 100 people attend and are very flexible with our date. Anytime from next February (2014) on would work for us. We'd like the location to be somewhat convenient for out of towners since some will be flying in (no more than 30 minutes or so from the airport) and would love a place with some ambiance and good food. Might possibly have an I-Pod wedding and potentially use branches and berries in lieu of flowers if we can get it together for a winter wedding to save some $. Any suggestions are welcome as far as venue ideas and ways to save money. We haven't set our budget yet, but will likely try to keep it between $12,000 and 15,000. Thank you!
