We’re having a small wedding with just our immediate family and grandparents. The guest list was growing way too much and the stress was building.
The ceremony will be at the Spanish Monastery. It’s a beautiful church and you’re allowed to take photos everywhere which is great.
The reception will be a dinner. We haven’t decided between two restaurants: Smith & Wollensky or Argentango.
S&W is a restaurant on the beach with a private room that overlooks the ocean.
Pro: It’s really romantic and they give you a private room which I love and its close to the ceremony location.
Con: There’s no entertainment. We would have to maybe hire a trio to play while we eat or bring in an IPOD just to have some background noise. It’s also more expensive than Argentango.
Argentango is an Argentinean restaurant in Hollywood.
Pro: It’s a nice restaurant with live music all the time that we can sort of steal for the evening (LOL).
Con: Doesn’t have the same views as S&W and the room is only semi-private.
We also have a photographer in mind but need to decide if we want him to just take photos of the ceremony or have him take a few photos during dinner as well. Those are just details though
I''m glad we''ve come to this conclusion because not knowing what direction to take was driving me crazy. Date is yet to come. I kind of want April 5th as that is our anniversary but its too soon for me to plan a honeymoon and take the time off from work. The other date we were thinking of is October 10th but we shall see
