The Reception Site Chosen
Posted in The Reception by Christina on September 11th, 2005
After much deliberation, reviewing ALL the options Dallas has to offer, we are finally going with Brookhaven. It’s cozy, homey, and the perfect size and location. Located in a neighborhood in Farmer’s Branch, the country club comes from old money. There is a view of the pool just outside the reception area. We need to scope out churches in the neighborhood for our ceremony. Of course we can always have the ceremony out on the golf course somewhere, although we prefer a church.
The wedding coordinator at Brookhaven called on Friday saying that there was another bride interested in the date that we held. We knew we had to act fast if we wanted it. It was our top and best choice out of all the places we’ve looked at. The only problem was the minimum, which was 7000 for the main dining room area… It’s not that it’s high, it’s just that if we wanted a smaller wedding or if we dont have enough headcount, then we’d be spending money for extra people that won’t be there. Even though our list hit 150 guests, who knows if everyone will be there…
I’m just finally glad we made a decision. Brian just asked his old friend to be his best man. Yay!
Our next steps is to find the ceremony site…
Hi, I stumbled across your website sheerly by accident, but I am so impressed and left pretty speechless. What a wonderful way to chart such an exciting path to your new life as husband and wife. :-)
Yes, I’m a vendor of sorts, DJ, but that’s not why I’m replying to your post. I just felt moved to. You’ve got my email and website, so if you feel like seeing who I am, that’s okay.
Best of luck & congratulations :-)
