A Decision is (Finally) Made

Well, 11 venues, 1 not quite a spreadsheet table, and many conversations later, we had it narrowed down to 6 venues=2 hotels and 2 function halls.  We decided we liked one of the hotels better than the other so we eliminated that one. Then we were down to 4 places.  One place we REALLY liked.  It was so pretty, the prices seemed reasonable, and they only did one wedding at a time.  Our two biggeset concerns were they didn't seem too willing to do vegetarian meals and the place was a long ride from the church where we were hoping to marry so we sadly eliminated that one.  Another place we liked, but we'd recently been to two weddings there.  We enjoyed the venue both times, but didn't want to look like copycats, we figured we should mix it up a bit.  So we eliminated that place too.  Another place we liked, but it was out of our price range.  We did get invited to a wedding at that venue so we did get to enjoy it at someone else's expense.  :)  So at long last we had it narrowed down to two places.  We liked them both. I ended up e-mailing them both and asking for an estimate.  Essentially, it came down to price and somewhat location.  One place was 1/2 hour away from the church, another place was 15 minutes so we went with the slightly less expensive and closer place.  Yay!  One decision made, 99 more to go lol.
