    So after about 6 months of putting off wedding planning (for various reasons) my FI and I decided to get back on it. We had an appointment today to go look at a possible venue and i fell in LOVE!! They had few saturdays available so we are going to set the date at June 30th of this year. 

    Let me know what you think! Also please give any advice on how to decorate these spaces and use the space to its fullest potential while keeping to a lowww budget. 

    This is Mount Bethel. It was built around 1890. It has no heat/a.c. but being in the mountains of NC this is not really a problem. It has an old cemetery behind it which is lined with planted trees in a straight row. Its very simple but beautiful.

    This is the inside. Its almost all white and it seems to glow from the inside. The rods going across at the ceiling.. i was wondering what i could do if anything to decorate. I love the thought of candlelit mason jars (maybe fake candles) The podium at the front can be moved.

    This is the reception space. There is a fireplace a kitchen and a small room off to the side. We would need to rent a dance floor.

    I love the old romance to buildings from another time, the only thing I am noticing is the size make sure you have a guest list at least semi planned before you book to be sure you wont have to cut out the people you want there to celebrate with you!

    I have checked with the venue and they said it will accomodate 90-100 ppl. i know it does not look like it but seeing it in person i believe them. We are planning around 80 to 90 ppl.
