I am getting frustrated with the venue hunt because I''m so picky! I feel like I need to relax my criteria.
FI and I have visited 5 venues so far and we do have some contenders but they are on the border of being out of our budget. I wanted to find something a little less expensive so we don''t have to cut back too much on other areas. All the places I loved were pricey and the more affordable places don''t have the look I was going for. I''m not looking for something extravagant, just something clean and modern. A lot of venue spaces have ornate details and busy patterned carpets. The more simple ones I''ve seen are the most expensive. Since we are in CA, the prices are insane.
The wedding won''t be until Spring 09 but we are hunting early because our schedules are busy and we don''t want to feel rushed. The goal is to book a place in March or April 08. We have time but I''m getting worried because I''m not liking anything. FI puts in his .02 but he''s a lot more flexible. A lot of the decision is up to me.
How many places did you look at before you found THE ONE?
