Does anyone else get bothered by the fact that the Alabama board rarely has any posts, and when there is one it usually consists of something that could be answered in Google? (i.e. "photographer in Montgomery, venue in Mobile")

City: Birmingham
Venue: Undecided... considering Birmingham Botanical Gardens and The Birmingham Museum of Art
Wedding Colors: grass green + rich brown
Favorite thing about wedding planning: I dunno, I've been enjoying narrowing down all the details so far. What I haven't enjoyed? Aldridge Botanical, who I originally was going to book for both ceremony and reception, gave me one quote in writing, then they tried to change it when I was ready to put down the deposit! Additionally, my fiance (What does the FI stand for? Is it just short for fiance or does it mean something else?) and his mother are no longer on speaking terms and she's not invited... so things are going to possibly be dramatic from the get go since the rest of her family is attending...
