Circular Congregational Church, and others...

Has anyone on this board ever been married here, or been to a ceremony at this church? From what I can see online, I'm a little worried about space.  I will have 150-175 guests, and my bridal party is HUGE, it is 11 each.  I'm debating between Circular Congregational, Bethel United Methodist, and John Wesley United Methodist. Anyone have any comments, suggestions about any of those? Help me out here! :-)

    I got married at Circular! I loved it - the guests really liked how unique the church looked, and the minister there is really laid-back and nice. My wedding was smaller than yours, about 100 guests and 6 bridesmaids. I would think you'd be fine, but you'd want to ask the minister or the office manager over there. Here is a picture of the inside of the church that should give you an idea of size http://tinyurl.com/nskb8rAs you can see we filled up the middle 2 sections of the church, but there were 2 empty sections on either side.  We put all our attendents on the ground level, but you can put some or all of them on the altar level, or the stairs. I'd recommend getting in touch with Robin Denny at the church and seeing if you can stop by and see it.

    Hmmm..I'm just SO worried Circular is too small! I'm pretty sure we'll at least have 150 guests... I wonder if they would be willing to move the piano? Robin is in the office tomorrow, she's down to two days a week now. She has me penciled in, so I'll ask her tomorrow and see if I can't come by this weekend. THANK YOU SO MUCH for the pictures!

    Funny you should ask, the AC wasn't working when I showed up on my wedding day, but they got it fixed quickly and it was very comfortable in time for the wedding. Maybe they've been having more trouble with it, but they definitely do have air conditioning!
