Hi everyone! Im a little new to here. Ive been engaged since Nov 21,2012 and Ive been lurking on here off and on since then. We just started planning our wedding and I have almost no idea where to start! My fiance and I are on a pretty tight budget. Im definately trying to keep everything under $3,000. I know thats really low and hard to work with, but we are very set on getting married this year and thats all we can afford. We have a date in mind for Nov 2, 2013. As far as a venue goes, Im having trouble finding a place to accomodate our budget. We are very open to having the ceremony and reception in one place, but its not totally necessary since we can have the ceremony at our church in Hurst. We dont need anything fancy, but would like it to be decent. At this moment our guest list is at 150. We are continuing to trim it to cut costs (Its pretty much immediate family and a few close friends), but we both have pretty big families so were trying to do it without hurting anybody. As far as food, we havent had that decided as far as what were serving, who is doing it, etc.
So I guess my main question is, Does anybody know of a venue that is pretty cheap to rent out in the midcities area (Hurst,Euless,Bedford, maybe even Grapevine, or Arlington??)
Thanks for taking the time to read this... I appreciate it a lot
And sorry if this is hard to read or if my sentences are confusing, My thoughts are a bit jumbled form trying to find places all day.
