I am very recently engaged (only since Thanksgiving), but we have set our date (May of 2013) and I want to get the big things booked. (We are getting married here in Minnesota.) We already booked our reception hall and are working on an officiant, DJ, and photographer. I am having a big issue with finding a ceremony site, though. It seems like a lot of venues require you to do the ceremony and the reception at the same location, and obviously that doesn't really work for us. We would prefer to have an indoor ceremony, or at least somewere with a pavillion for cover in case it rains. Also, it isn't a COMPLETE requirement, but I would really like a place that has windows to the outside, aka a lot of natural light. We have a guest list of a little over 300 people so the venue would have to hold up to at least 250. Any help would be SO greatly appreciated! Thank you!
