Newbie

Well good afternoon Ladies. I am a newbie to the board and wanted to say hello. I have been lurking for about a month now and thought I would introduce myself. Im Marie H2B is Bobby and we are getting married 9/14/2013. This will be wedding number 2 for me and number 1 for him. Planning is starting to come along and seems to be easier since we have only told a few people so far and with that we are avoiding everyone’s options on what they want! LOL. We are looking at a fairly small wedding 5 on each side and about 100 guest. Currently looking for an outdoor venue for both the ceremony and reception and hope to have that locked down in the next week or so. Well I look forward to reading more about you ladies and your weddings as well as any and all help that you can share with me! Happy Tuesday!

  • Welcome Marie! Looking forward to hearing all about your plans.

    We had our wedding at Greenmead Village in Livonia, corner of 8 Mile & Newburgh. You can do it outdoors there, but they also have a lovely chapel and banquet hall for rain backup if you want it. You'd have to rent them, but could set up the tents outside if you wanted and the weather cooperated. If you are a resident it was $1000 to rent both, not sure of current prices. You can bring in your own caterer, alcohol (get a permit from the Livonia police, Greenmead has all the forms).

    In my bio below, there is a link to vendors, and Greenmead info is in there. It's a lovely place, and our engagement and wedding photos were taken in their gardens.

    Good luck!
  • Thank you for the suggustion! I will check it out this week. I did not think that finding an outdoor area would be as hard as it has been.
  • Welcome to the board and congrats!
