Venue Appointments

Hello ladies!

Well, my day was very productive!

First of all, I must say that I have a completely different attitude about this whole wedding planning process. I have a more positive outlook on it.

Anywho...I went to see 3 venues today.

(1) Castle Green
http://castlegreen.com/

Really liked this place. We would have use of the whole 1st floor as well as outside. The lady that I met with was really cool and down to earth. Took a tour and was impressed by what I saw. For those of you that watch, My Fair Wedding w/ David Tutera, the venue will be on the season finale.

(2) Calamigos Equestrian

When I first got to this place I was a little lost but I finally figured it out. There were horse competitions going on today so it was a little akward but where the wedding and reception would take place is further up from there. I liked the lady that I met with here as well. I really like the Equestrian Room with the ceremony outside in front of the waterfall...really really nice.

(3) Pasadena Museum of California Art

BEAUTIFUL!!!
This venue is AMAZING! You are on the rooftop and the views are just beautiful! They were setting up for a wedding so I was able to see how it would look. With our guest count, we can do the ceremony inside or outside...our choice. I liked the lady here as well.

Overall, today was a good day. I am happy to say that I am pleased with the way things have started up for me.

    No...

    We figure we find a venue that we love and see what they have available and go from there...

    I've been to weddings at castle green and calamigos.  Castle green is beautiful, but they had some pretty strict rules about noise level and something else I remember was a little weird there.  I was a bridesmaid in that wedding and my view of the dance floor was blocked by a column.

    Calamigos was the most fun wedding I've ever been to (other than mine).  If I had wanted an outdoor wedding I'd have definitely looked there!  

    But the museum, that just sounds awesome!  I love rooftop views!!!!

    Congrats on a productive day!
