we are thinking of having the ceremony/recept. at paul brown stadium or maybe the taft museum of art. has anyone had a wedding there? been to one? i am just starting the planning process and any advice will be helpful! also, i'm a bride on a budget, so any recs. on  vendors that are inexpensive would be great!

I am a Paul Brown Stadium bride! I wouldn't consider it inexpensive, but they have a lot of different menu options so you could easily work with your money.  Also, hopefully you don't have has many people as me-- that will make it less expensive! Let me know if you have questions! stadt2b (at) gmail (dot) com

We considered the Taft Museum for our reception.  It is a beautiful spot!  I have loved all of the pictures from receptions there.  I wouldn't say it's inexpensive though.  Some things to consider before booking:- Extra Tent Rentals - Might be needed for the Bar Tent, and Extra Guests- Alcohol Costs - You have to get your alcohol through the Taft Museum.  I estimated that it would be about $20-25/preson for alcohol.  They offer their standard bar, which included chardonnay (I hate chardonnay!).  If you want to choose your own types of alcohol, they can order for you but you have to make sure you know excatly how much you'll need.  It can also change the cost.A hint for you (if you haven't done it yet):  Use theknot or similar budget calculator and see if the rental costs and alcohol costs at the Taft (and Paul Brown for that matter) fit within what these calculators say you can afford.  You can also shift money from another category if they don't.  The biggest way to reduce costs are less people.  GL!
