November 5, 2011!  I have the contract in hand and just have to sign and fax it back to them.  We looked at 8 places total, so I'm so excited to finally be done with freaking venue tours. Hoping to now book our photographer, DJ and officiant and then just take a long break from everything wedding planning related for a few months.  But anyways, I'm just excited to finally have an official wedding date so I had to share

How is everyone else's Tuesdays going??

Congratulations! Once you have the date and venue booked it really does fell real. Do you have any pictures?

I'm so happy for you. That has to be a huge burden lifted.

My Tuesday could be ten times better. I have a headache and I'm trying to get everything ready so I can go to school in Chicago in January.  For some reason I can't continue my housing application because the system is being trippy! I've sent numerous e-mails and I've tried calling. I just want answers!  At least I get to work out tonight...

I don't have any pictures other than in their 'portfolio' section on weddingwire <--clicky, but it's really pretty.  We loved the ceremony site, which is why we ultimately decided on this place over the other one we liked. 

Heart- I feel for you, I always hated the online applications for stuff like that.  It seemed my school ALWAYS had problems with their website.

Yay! Very nice. But oh my, eight venue tours? We're going to be booking the third and final one we saw.

Oh yay! Congrats, the venue looks so beautiful.  I'm looking forward to booking a venue but not looking forward to actually finding and narrowing one down.

Yay for setting a date and a venue!!!  Since I'm getting married on March 5, I'm kind of partial to the 5th of the month - good choice!

Moto - I had narrowed my search down to about 8 or so venues I wanted to get more details on, so I just emailed each of them to get some basic info.  I set up appointments with the 1st 2 that responded; 2 others were out of our price-range, 1 only sent a pretty rude response back and I still haven't heard from 3 of them (3 months later).  Don't stress it.

My Tuesday has been pretty good - spent the day shopping with my mom.  We got some of the supplies needed for the bouquets and got my hair clip (don't have a picture of it), but I saw it and gasped, so I guess that was a sign I had to have it (and couldn't be the price, either).

YAY Jem! That venue does look beautiful and it is a HUGE relief to have that part over and done with. Congrats and you're getting married the same day as one of my friends.
