HELP HELP HELP!!!!!  We're getting married in 19 days and have nowhere to take pics, we live in manchester and are getting married at the quality inn in toms river.  We hate the lakes around here theres so much goose crap, the quality inn doesnt have anywhere nice to take pics and were running out of time.  We tried seaside but it doesnt seem to be what we want we need somewhere close without any goose poop.  It's not that were picky but we need to be close enough to be on time and clean enough to not look like slobs walking in and we need kind of a big area.  And my fiance is groomzilla so hes a lil picky lol

    I would stop somewhere in Island Heights somewhere along the Toms River.  There are a few places with Gazeebo's overlooking the river.

    What are you guys into?  Any hobbies, etc?

    For example - I am a teacher and FI is a literary agent, so we are planning on going to a library near our venue for some pictures.

    I've had friends go to movie theaters, bowling alleys, antique stores, roller skating - think outside of the "normal" park pictures!

    Island Heights is not far.  It's right next to Toms River.  Also, Beachwood has a nice park area with a gazebo for taking pictures.

    Find someplace with classic videogames - arcade perhaps?  You could play some classic pac-man :)

    If it is really what you guys like then they will be the best pictures.  Don't feel pressured into doing anything traditional if you aren't.
