Venue Love

It's occured to me that I have not put up any pictures of my venue! Here I have a few of the pictures of the place where the ceremony and the reception will be. It sits on the Missouri River in Omaha.


Here is the upstairs area to the right of the doors when you walk in. The cake will start out occupying this space before it is removed and the buffet replaces it. You can see the restaurant below if you look into the portholes!
This is the window behind where the head table goes. The window faces East so no one will be blinded at sunset during dinner or dancing!!!

My FMIL hand painted 17 of these beauties for me to go on the tables
 

This is it! This is the ceremony site.












The corner there on the right will be where we're standing and the chairs will be placed in triangle-shaped sections on either side of the aisle. It can accomodate 75 chairs right now as it is. The patio ceiling has white lights strung across it so it will be beautiful as the night goes on.
The venue has informed me however, that they may plan to do some renovations to make the upstairs patio twice as large by April. Not only would that make sure ALL our guests get to be on the patio, but then we wouldn't have to rent lapel mics or speakers for those who have to watch from the head table window and need to hear. That's fine with me!
I wanted to put up pictures of my garter and shoes but I'm going to work on my headpiece this weekend. So I will save something for Monday to post about and just do an accessories entry! YAY!
