My fiancee and I found this wedding online and really liked the feel and idea.
http://www.younghouselove.com/wedding-album/Howeve, here is our problem. Right now we are struggling with two reception venues. 1. a community club down the road from my church where, growing up, I spend a lot of time. or 2. my grandmother's new house in the country. He doesn't seem to like the CC idea because its a hall. However, they would let us start decorating and cooking (since we're doing our own catering) four days before the wedding! And I would rather not do it at my grandmother's because its literally in the middle of no where (and his whole family is coming from out of town) with no electricity and only a steel barn in case of rain.The hall rental is only $250 including all the chairs, tables, and bartenders we could ask for and also access to the kitchen. He's afraid that it won't have the same feeling as the "backyard wedding" we had envisioned. Any ideas on how we could decorate the hall to give it that feeling? (And so I can help convince him
) Thanks girls!
