    I love my ceremony venue.
    Caesars Palace - Venus Garden
    So romantic, not really much I don't like- some complain about it not be super secluded from the pool area.  There's a small walkway, but who cares if they want to see a fabolous wedding, check us out, just don't sit yo behind down in one of the seats we've paid for. lol







    Reception - The Orleans Stardust Suite - 3000 sq ft + 2500 sq ft presidential suite.
    The suite allows us to be ourselves.  One big party, which is how we are.  Plus it HUGE!!! And not like any other wedding anyone we've invited has been to.








    I'm so excited!!!!!

    My Cocktail hour will be in the foyer and the reception will be held in the grand ballroom

    Here are basic pics. I will have draping, Lavender linens, Purple uplights etc so the room will really transform

    Ceremony and reseption will be here...



    It's an older venue in my area.  They decorate it beautifully and the food is good.  It was a great value!

    edit... add: I hate the chairs, but will not be doing anything to them.

    Heritage Golf Club in Columbus, Ohio.  I love it because I've always wanted an outdoor ceremony, and this will let us have that.  The reception will be inside.  The selling point for me was that we'll be the ONLY event happening, so no one will have to worry about running into other guests.

    Flawlessfay, your reception room will look the bomb with the draping and uplighting!  I can't wait to see your pictures.

    Our venue is a casino! Since we weren't going to Vegas it was the next best thing lol



    Were having ceremony in front of this water structure in the courtyard



    Cocktails will be in the foyer just outside the reception room



    This is the reception area




    I love everything about it, in the middle is the courtyard where were having ceremony, on one side is the reception hall area on the other side is the casino!!

    I know this spot.  It is gorgeous and very private.  Enjoy!!  The grounds are beautiful.

    My spot is a hidden gem and I love it.   There's no wow factor on the outside but what you can do on the outside is what made me giddy!!  LOL!!

    This is our dream venue! When we pulled in, i lost it. Like a kid in a candy store. It's everything we want. I dont hate anything about it. Its a bit far from phoenix, but thats also a blessing because you can take in all the natural settings. We have the contract and are sending in our deposit this week. Man just pulling up these pics got me excited!

    The front yard at the venue


    This is where we will say our "i do's"
