we're getting married August 2010 and we would really love to have an outdoor wedding. I've tried searching the local boards, but most ideas are not really close to my area(Monroe). the michigan board closest is Detroit and most posts are not close to home. We are paying for the wedding ourselves so the location would definately need to be low budget friendly. I would love to have it near water, but beautiful landscaping is just as good. The reception is at LaRoy's Hall and we would like to keep the distance closer to that area. So.... Temperance, Ida, Lambertville, Monroe, maybe even as far as Carelton. Please help!!!! I have know idea! 
oh.... and since the wedding is on a Friday, I'm assuming most guests will just go to the reception, therefore, ceremony guests will definately be under 75... maybe even under 50. Thanks for your help!!!
