Awhile ago I mentioned our location. The Elks Toketee Illahee Park. We were going to have the ceremony outside in a gazebo. A little bit of explanation for you: Looking at the gazebo opening (the back half is a wall...it's a pretty large gazebo) the guests would be seated at 6 o'clock. The aisle is 9-10 o'clock and is a natural path through tall alder trees so everything is easily visible from the guests seats. The guests would be seated at tables during the whole event. Or maybe we'll have the tables set up behind them? The food would go inside the gazebo (12 o'clock) and be blocked from sight by decorations until the ceremony is over.
That was the original plan. Now we are seriously considering renting the building located at the park instead. In the long run I'm hoping (haven't checked yet) that it will be cheaper. With it outside we have to rent tables and chairs for everyone and it would just be a hassle, not to mention worrying about the Oregon weather that changes every 5 minutes. Having the building, we're guessing it probably comes with some tables and chairs and it would keep everyone dry.
Lucky for me there is a family reunion out there this Saturday. I hope to have the location finalized and paid for by the time it's over.
Why are weddings so much hassle? Maybe it's because I procrastinate...
