It should be comfortable enough for all the visitors to walk and talk around the venue.wedding venueshttp://www.meetingplanneronline.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5433115176649472826.post-25165500712583243512009-07-30T10:46:10.114-07:002009-07-30T10:46:10.114-07:00Is this the place you eventually went with?!

Generally the traffic isn't that bad on the main street, but on Labor Day Weekend there is a Peddler's Fair/Flea Market in the lot just a few buildings up from this venue which will probably increase both pedestrian and car traffic in that area, but it might add to the small town ambiance, you never know. Best of luck with your wedding!Mollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02531824781432940920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5433115176649472826.post-90200486419107949002009-05-27T18:49:27.557-07:002009-05-27T18:49:27.557-07:00Our wedding is at a vineyard and we can only serve...Our wedding is at a vineyard and we can only serve beer and wine - since it's a vineyard we're making a point to pick a nice variety of wines so it feels more like an extended tasting - I've been to plenty of weddings with just beer & wine and they've been fine. <br /><br />GOOD THINGS<br /><br />1. no one will get hammered and roll on the floor in front of your grandmother. <br />2. personally i think it adds a touch of class<br />3. they're cheaper (less variety, no mixers, fewer bartenders)<br /><br />BAD THINGS<br /><br />1. If you don't have variety it can be a bit boring<br />2. Always have more white than red - you think people will drink the red - but you're wrong. Always have extra white. <br />3. Be creative if your venue will let you - if it's not a vineyard you can get away with things like sangria, wine and sparkling lemonade or orangina, kir royals, making almost cocktails of sorts.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5433115176649472826.post-64447102779934292092009-05-23T17:00:07.403-07:002009-05-23T17:00:07.403-07:00Love the potential venue.

The one and only drawback to having an outside ceremony on the Central Coast is the weather. The three appointments I had with our coordinator (in June, July, and August) had me fearing we would be saying "I Do" in fog and rain. Some may dig that sort of ambience but this Southern Cali girl does not... especially on her wedding day. I didn't see a date set anywhere but Central Cali prime weather is in the fall. Sept-December is usually sunny, warm, and clear. Our venue coordinator assured me that they had a back-up plan if in all likelihood there was soggy weather. <br /><br />If you have an open bar (this would be a limited bar if cocktails were available, but since the venue prohibits, it's kind of an open bar), I'm not sure there's anything to complain about. If your guests have to foot the bill for beer and wine, you'll go down in history as a cheap bee-tard. Keep the beer flowing.mrsacostahttp://www.twitter.com/mrsacostanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5433115176649472826.post-601014160470702292009-05-22T23:49:38.240-07:002009-05-22T23:49:38.240-07:00Hmm...I think as far as the liquor issue, it would...Hmm...I think as far as the liquor issue, it would depend mostly on the type of people on your guest list. I know for some, the idea of no liquor is absolutely unacceptable whereas others probably wouldn't even notice the absence. However, you did mention little bars being in the town so it doesn't sound like a big issue.<br /><br />And also: only 3 flights? Would a lot of people plan on flying there? How about road trips? Or renting a car from the next closest airport? Personally, I like charming little towns on the coast so I wouldn't mind taking a road trip. However, if worrying about people making it is just going to cause added stress, I don't know if you or your bride would need that. This is the first possible venue, right? Maybe hold onto this as a maybe and look at some other options?magstermashhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01603426077361632802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5433115176649472826.post-24384944241294497472009-05-21T13:10:33.285-07:002009-05-21T13:10:33.285-07:00It sound beautiful!It sound beautiful!sissy.bobbitt@gmail.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01298478545360831781noreply@blogger.com
