Hi y'all,
I made the mistake of falling in love with the Thomas Bennett House during a recent trip to Charleston. It didn't matter originally because all our dates were booked or held by other couples, but a desireable date JUST opened up and now I'm having a hard time grasping the fact that it's just so far out of our budget. I'm having a hard time being excited about anything else, even though we're holding another venue that would be great for my fiancé and I. I can't focus on anything except the fact that it's NOT Thomas Bennett. I'm feeling pangs of sadness because we simply can't afford to have our reception there, but I know that's exactly a place I've always pictured in my mind.
Any brides out there who have experienced something similar? Has anyone had to move past a dream venue? How did you handle it and how did you feel once you committed to something else? Did you get over it or were you always thinking about the place you couldn't have?
Any advice or sharing is hugely appreciated!!
