WR AW: Ceremony Site and Venue (PIP)

At first FI wanted to see everything in our price range before we booked anything, but the more I thought about the second place we looked at the more it seemed like the perfect place for us. The price is too good to pass up. It's not too fancy, but still has a nice ballroom feel. And it's only five minutes from where we want to have the ceremony. So FI and I sat down today and had a serious wedding talk and decided that we would go for it!

Dressed up for a wedding:

View from the balcony that over looks the hall (only the B&G plus WP are allowed up there):

Bridal Room:

And for the ceremony, we're going to be getting married in a library! Squee! I'm super excited. It's more a museum than an actual library, but it's absolutely gorgeous.

I *love* the ceiling.

I'm very excited. :D Now to wait two years. >_<

    Congrats!  I don't know why, but I love the black & white checkered floor in the reception room.  It's very vintage/classic and just seems to fit that space so well.  Also, the ceremony site is amazing, I love the ceiling too.
