July 2014 Weddings

Venue (finally!) secured

Cue the sigh of relief!

We're getting married on Flathead Lake in Montana in a small (less than 30) family only ceremony and have been searching for a lake front house to rent where we can hold the wedding in the backyard. I didn't think it would be difficult at all...until I realized July is peak tourist season and half the houses were already booked. But alas, we secured a beautiful property on the west shore that I think will work perfectly:

We were also able to secure the restaurant where we're having the reception dinner, too (...cue another sigh of relief). For only being engaged 2 weeks, I'm feeling rather productive (and questioning what we were thinking with a 6 month engagement!).

Any other July-ers silly enough to do a quick turn around, from afar, like us?

    I got engaged on December 20th, so I feel your stress!!

    The venue/house are BEAUTIFUL.  We have most of the vendors booked, just a matter of all the little details now :D

    Thank you! And now I feel like we can take a quick breather now that the "big stuff" (venue, reception, photog) is done before digging into those details. Phew!

    Beautiful!! We got engaged on Christmas so our time is short also. We have everything all set with the church but not our reception venue. They put a hold on our date until I can get over there to put a deposit. Hopefully they won't forget about me !!

    The next thing to tackle will be the dress- they can take several months to come in, as they are typically custom made when you order

    @LizM61409 - the dress was actually the first "big" thing I tackled, and so glad I did as you are right in that it won't be delivered back to bridal shop until mid-May!

    I live in a big city and am having a short engagement so we ended up booking my dream venue for a Monday because its cheaper and weekends are booked years ahead in the summer...
