We are getting married at the Alumni Chapel in July 2012. We knew they booked up fast and we had a general time frame in mind but we pretty much picked our date arbitrarily. And now we are having a really difficult time finding a reception venue! We have a LOT of out of state guests so its really important to us that the reception have a hotel attached. The ballrooms at the Kellogg Center are being remodeled next summer so those are not available. There's a boyscout convention in town that weekend that is using all the banquet space at the Marriott. The weekend MBA program starts that weekend at the Henry Center so the Atrium there is unavailable, as well as the hotel rooms at Candlewood Suites. We looked at Eagle Eye/Hawk Hollow, Brookshire golf course in Williamston, Lakeview banquet center at Round Lake, the Spartan Club, the University Club, etc. and these were all either too far away from East Lansing or too expensive. I'm trying not to be too picky but I did not think it would be so difficult to find a reception venue! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
