    To cheer myself up about the Boy’s recent job loss, I decided to do a little pre-wedding planning. We are very party, party people. I can’t quite see us having a normal wedding and standard reception and see a bar/lounge as more our scene, however since we have kids I thought that option was out and we’d do a small family buffet and then night after-party.

    Enter the most perfect wedding reception location for the Boy and I! When I remembered this place I almost screamed with glee. It’s a lounge that is very chic with great décor,  and wonderful food. They do a “club” thing at night, and regularly host shows. And they allow kids (hallelujah!!!) and since they’re open until 2 a.m., we could actually have the after-party there after the kiddies and older folks leave. Perfection!

    Already overly excited about this place, I nervously looked at their menu and it is SO reasonable for a buffet (with passed hors d’ourves)  it’s ridiculous! And, because of the beautiful inside, we don’t need to add anything but *maybe* a small flower here or there. Saving money on the decorations = more money for other things!

    So, I am taking that as confirmation that everything with the Boy’s job situation and proposal stuff is going to work out sooner rather than later. I can truly see us having our wedding reception there. Funny how a little pre-wedding planning can totally fix a sulky mood!

    @crebre80: I feel you girl. That really is going to be my choice of places when we do actually begin to plan for real.

    lol i have about a billion places that are THE ONE but not really because we don't know specs yet.. it depends on when he asks.. we have discussed an idea of when we're going to get married.. but i'll keep mum on that until after he asks... and will silently pray that none of my faves will be booked...
