Hi everybody,
I got engaged about a month ago and we are having the worst time trying to figure out where to have our reception! We live in SC but are planning the wedding in Michigan because thats where were from....
I have been looking all over the Detroit/Ann Arbor area, we are looking to have a July 23 2011 ceremony but are flexible. We have a 30k budget, would like to keep the reception under 15k WITH a full bar! We are expecting around 130 guests.
I dont want a traditional ballroom reception, looking for something a bit more light, lots of windows etc.
I am just looking for ideas/advice/recommendations!! Most places I have checked are either a.) Booked or b.) too expensive! I am feeling really discouraged and could use some help!
Thanks
p.s. I've already checked, Pine Knob carriage house, Henry Ford Museum, Meadowbrook, Michigan League, and Twin Lakes golf course.
