    HI All,

    I am trying to find a small ceremony location for my itimate wedding. The total guests attended the ceremony will be less than 20 people. I prefer an outside wedding in a garden/park.

    I am just about to start the process but I am so nervous already  :(

    All sugguestions are appreciated!

    Thanks...

    You should probably post this in your local board and ask them for help

    I am located in Arcadia, CA- San Gabriel Vally.

    I am going to have a small wedding in the US and have another one in Taiwan.

    Since me and my FI didn't grow up in the US, we don't have a lot of friends to invite. Ideally I want to have my big wedding in Taiwan, (I grew up in Taiwan and moved here in 2001) FI prefers to have a wedding in the US b/c he grew up in China and does not know anyone in Taiwan...Plus his families are here.

    I just don't have to have my wedding ceremony in the courthouse... =(

    @LittleBruin: What about the rose garden at Wrigley Mansion in Pasadena

    Or somewhere in the Huntington Gardens... maybe in the bamboo forest area.

    I think Wrigley Mansion is in Arizona?

    Hountington Library is really expensive and we could not affroad it...

    I checked out "A chair in the Garden" last weekend, and it looks pretty good. The only thing is the Garden is a backyard in the officiant's house...

    Since I will only have 15-20 guests for the ceremony, I was offered a $800 package- including :

    1. Clergy

    2. A Two-Tier Wedding Cake

    3. Sparkling Wine

    4. Cheese Platter

    Should I just go with it and sign the contract? Wedding will be in next June and I start to get nervous already...

    I am kind of tired trying to find venue just for a small ceremony....

     Any suggestions?

    @LittleBruin: I was talking about this Wrigley Mansion

    http://www.tournamentofroses.com/pasadena-tournament-of-roses/about-us/house.asp

    The tournament of roses house.

    I don't know if they do weddings, but the grounds a very pretty.
