The date was my first big check, but now 10/20/12 just became so real. I went to the venue we have wanted for a long time now and booked our date and put the deposit down! WOW! I am soooooo excited!!!
I made the appointment the other day and told him it would be my mom and I, didnt give him last name or anything else. We walk in and he's like, "oh, your Gail's daughter". Thank God, he cut all fees (bartenders, meat carver, cake cutter, ceremony, etc.) but the facility fee. He also threw in another appetizer (maybe two) and upgraded our beef to the higher beef. I am overly happy and excited. We saved over 1000 bucks!
Thanks for letting me share!! Yay!
