Hello again, ladies...
My mind is going in a thousand different directions and in my previous post, I started asking about venues. I started thinking about inviting more people, thus, increasing our budget, which just make the stress pile on.
Originally, my fiance and I thought to have a small wedding ceremony (somewhere - don't know where) followed by a nice, formal dinner with only our closest friends and family (and spouses). He and I are more on the quiet, private side and throwing a huge bash isn't very "us".
I've been reading older posts on this board about restaurants with patios and have hosted weddigns in the past. Unfortunately, those posts are a couple years old and the restaurants (like Anthony's and Feast) have since closed.
Would anyone know of a restaurant that would host a small, private dining group of about 20-25? Whether or not they have a space for a ceremony doesn't matter - it would be great, but we can find another place for a ceremony if need be.
I have already contacted Canoe and Ray's on the River; both restaurants would rather us have our wedding reception on a weekday and prefer larger groups on the weekends, it sounds. Due to taking our guests' work schedules into consideration, we are not willing to hold our wedding on a weekday.
Can anyone help?
