I just got engaged and am new to the Knot boards. I am a teacher and really have to have the wedding in the summer. We would like to do a summer 2011 wedding but I am thinking finding a place is going to be very difficult so might look into July 2012. Does anyone have any tips to get started with planning? Any suggestions on a venue? We would like to spend 100-150 a person or less and would really like to be on the water but we can go anywhere on the coastline either in CT or RI.
