    @SouthernGirl: What town are you getting married in?

     

    Is anyone else having to negotiate Alabama's football schedule for a fall wedding?

    @Houndstooth:

    I am sure I lost some guests to the game due to me being from Auburn and they were playing Georgia the week of my wedding. People asked me why we did that but we are military and were flying in from Korea so the least people could do was attend no matter what. I love football but it doesn't run my life...good luck all.

    @Houndstooth: I didn't check back on this thread for a while. I have no idea yet. We don't even have a date set. But it'll probably be in Dothan.

    @KateMW:

    I got engaged in Seaside, FL!  I love that place!  I would have loved to get married in Seaside (what a gorgeous location for a wedding!!!) but we were worried a lot of our family would not be willing to travel (even if it is only a few hours away) to attend our wedding.

    I've started a new Birmingham wedding blog that will hopefully help fill the void in online wedding planning resources for local brides: http://bhambride.com

    I'm from NC and it was really hard for me to plan my wedding in such a word of mouth community when I was so much more comfortable with online research!

    I'd be glad to hear thoughts on the blog and would love to know if there are any topics you'd like to see discussed! bhambride@gmail.com

    @wedinred:  I listed my vendors below (with their websites if you want to check them out).  My wedding isnt until April 30 so I havent actually used them yet but will post reviews after the wedding.
    Regarding venue -I also love the Huntsville Botanical Gardens as a wedding venue!  I didnt know they did weddings until after we booked our venue & I recently saw some pics of a couple that got married there & it truly looked magical...GORGEOUS!
    Heather McAlister as my photographer www.heathermcalister.com It's a husband & wife team & they are great!!! 

    Catering & cake - Becky Hartley or Hartley's Catering www.hartleyscatering.com

    DJ - Hartley Entertainment (it's actually our caterer's son...he works for CMT & has been in wedding business for a while too)

    Florist - Gatehouse Flowers (owner's name is Chip)...I'm meeting w/ him Monday to do final selections for our flowers

    Venue - Annabella at Cedar Glen (has beautiful outdoor garden area & chairs, tables, etc all included...also comes with really nice & organized wedding coordinator (Karen - the owner)   www.annabellaweddings.com

    We're having our rehearsal dinner at Carrabas (in the enclosed patio area they have for private parties).  I cant think of any others right now (we havent hired a videographer yet) but let me know if you have any other Q's about people I've met with or anything.
