How easy or difficult of a time did everybody having finding their venues?
I feel like I've checked out 30 trillion venues, and can't commit to any.
Every time I think I found the one, and I'm ready to sign on the dotted line and hand over my hard earned cash, I seem to find something wrong with the place.

dont worry you will find the perfect place and it will ALL fall into place from there

I know I have time and that I eventually will find it, but this is the one thing I HAVE to cross off my list. I won't relax or stop thinking about it until it's done.
I'm looking for something def. in Dade or Monroe Counties. The prob. I have with all the places in the keys, is that they charge the alcohol per person, per hour, instead of making it part of their packages. No big deal if they weren't charging an arm and a leg for the alcohol. I think every single place I've seen in the keys, I would be paying more for the alcohol package than site rental and reception/food combined.
In Dade I've checked The Deering, Coco Plum, The Doubletree Biscayne Bay, The Mayfair, The Sonesta, The Palms, The Fire Tower, The Women's Club...
Try Bank of America tower, The Links (my venue), Yuca (in SoBe), Coral Gables Womans club, Colonade (I heard they have recession specials now), there are mansions in Miami you can rent out, Grove Isle, Jungle Island, Douglas Entrance...
I actually negotiated my bar package...

I just e - mailed your venue!
If I come up with anything else, I'll post it. What's your budget per person? It'll keep me from suggesting everything under the sun.
I totally understand how you feel. Venue searching was one of the hardest processes of wedding planning. I looked for a month straight before booking my venue. I did so much research online and got so many proposals. I never thought I would find somehting in my price range and I did. Don't get discouraged because you will find it!!!!
Kitty, I'm trying to stay around $80 pp.
OH! Miami Springs Country Club has good prices and I think was remodeled recently. And there's also the Melreese Country Club that just opened in October. Not sure of their contact info though.
I'll keep thinking for you.. lol.
