Short engagement

kms00075

Me and my FI are wanting a really short engagement (3 month or less) Do yall know of any places that are all inclusive (cake, flowers, etc) to save on time?  Or if yall have any suggestions on anything else it would help! Thanks!

I think I've heard some brides have chosen hotels to get everything in one place. You could also look into consulting a wedding planner. They may have ideas for you. I googled "all inclusive wedding packages in north texas" and quite a lot came up. Maybe try that?

Not really sure but you might try:
Green Oaks Wedding Chapel
Alexander Mansion
Ashton Gardens
Cappella Court
Maggiano's

Hotels are somewhat AI--but they are also expensive.

the carpenter house has an all inclusive, and the same with castle on the lake, and I also think wildwood inn does it, another marie gabrielle garden

You can also try The Surrey House in McKinney, it's AI.

If it's a small wedding- 50 or so, I would look into restaurants like Blue Mesa, marie gabrielle. There is also a place in Ft Worth my friend did her's on a short engagement, I think it is called Rose Chapel (and they have the reception hall there too). You might also look into Fairview Farms in Plano- easy to work with and they can provide all items or you can bring in- that is where I got married but I brought in outside vendors.

Cappella Court is AI.. I booked there, and so far I love it. No complaints from me. They just opened this new location in March, and Its great.

The Victorian House in Kaufman is all inclusive.  I've been to 2 weddings there. Also the Rockwall Wedding Chapel does it all.  Both are smaller but very nice.

There's the new wedding chapel in Colleyville too.

Maggiano's will do everything except the flowers but they may have some recommendations for you.

Look at Avanti Fountain Place. My friend got married there and it was really pretty already so she didn't have to do much for decor.

The Wildwood Inn Bed and Breakfast in Denton is pretty all-inclusive.  It's gorgeous.  I got married there in Sept. 08.  I had 100 guests.  The max is 125 I believe.

My reception was held at The City Club (69th floor of the Bank of America tower in downtown Dallas.) You can have both the wedding and reception there. They have great menus. I also used their inclusive package. For $14 (I think) a head, they add your cake from Elena's cakes, flower centerpieces and a buffet arrangement from Dr. Delphinium's (I had a sit down, so they let me use the money to upgrade the centerpieces), chivari chairs, upgraded linens, a dancefloor, parking and various other bits and bobs. Vicky is so easy to work with.

If you're looking more in the Ft. Worth area, the Palace Room and the Bluebonnet Room in the Stockyards have realllllly competive prices! They're both all inclusive- we're having a wedding of about 300 and are using the Palace Room- with tonnns of room to spare. They do everything- catering, dj, lighting, glassware, linen, decorations, photography, you name it. I've been pretty happy with it so far! Good luck with planning!!!!

Someone told me of a place called Salones Kingsley in garland (saloneskingsley.com)...shes getting married there and for 300 ppl shes only paying $2500 which includes everything from linens, decor, food, cakes...Ii don't she she's havign to pay for anything extra.

Another option is to hire a wedding planner. I'm using K and M Affairs (www.kandmaffairs.com) Martina is my planner...one of the questions I asked her was "What was the shortest amount of time she had to plan a wedding?" and she said less than 3 months her company was able to pull off a wedding....I couldn't believe it! So....if you don't find a place I'd say hire a planner (be sure to interview at least 3!)
