The Castle McCollouch: Crystal Garden

Well, since school started, not much has been going on in the way of planning. Ive been busy with school work and trying to make it till the summer to do any other wedding planning. We did, however, make a trip to the Bridal Festival at the Castle McCollouch. Although is it a very pretty estate, its not where I imagine the dream day to be, and I wont even mention the prices...


No discouragement here, though. There are quite a few other places around that I want to check out soon. One of which is Twelve West Main. They have a very open floorplan, and it is a very different, kind of "edgy" place. (also..the compass in the center of the floor would be awesome for a coastal themed wedding! not that ive picked a theme yet)

Twelve West Main

I also got an email in the other day about a new place close to here. The name caught my attention from the beginning, but once I took a peek at BonaManzee 's website, I really like it! It's secluded and has a ton of property surrounding it. Not to mention, a place for possibly the parents to stay?

(this picture IS a label)

So..Hopefully in the next few weeks, we'll be able to make contact with the owners of these two cool places and set up some kind of tour. We shall see!

in other news, here is the only picture thats floating around the internet with the ring on my finger!

Happy (belated) St. Patrick's Day!
