fairly new to the board...newly engaged :)

kendrajoy22 · June 2010

I was on the boards so much a few years ago when I was planning my first wedding...met one of my best friends on here...so here I am again planning my second, and last wedding

I feel so overwhelmed already, and its only been 2 weeks! I dont want to have a long engagement, and we will do it quite small (less than 50 people).

I was looking at houses to rent along Lake MIchigan with private beaches so that we could do the wedding there...I am thinking August or September of this year...so decisions have to be made fairly quickly Another thought was to do like a castle/mansion type venue in the Winter...that would buy us a little more time for planning.

I am so out of the wedding scene...like I said I feel overwhelmed...any suggestions, advice or anything at all would be a wonderful help

Thanks! Kendra

Welcome (back) I guess! Post your info on the Grand Rapids board if you want any recommendations for places on Lake Michigan.

There is also a Second Wedding board on the Special Topic Wedding board to the left. I go there too because I'm an older bride, and my fiance has been married before.

Look forward to hearing about your plans.

Welcome back, Kendra! Like pp said, maybe post something on the Grand Rapids board. They might be able to give you a few more ideas than we could. But I look forward to hearing all about your plans!

Welcome, Kendra! Check out New Buffalo, MI. Five of us couples rented a townhouse there last summer and it's gorgeous...plus, there are a TON of rentals...although I don't know what you will find for summer...it's a pretty popular place. Good luck!
