Hi Guys,
So this past week we looked at 8 different locations to have our wedding. Mom and I started on Wednesday and went to The Point Lake and Golf Club on Lake Norman. I didn't want to confine our search to just one area though, and so Casey and I went to Charleston Friday night and Saturday to look at some more locations (and, I'm not going to lie, get our Charleston fix). We looked at 3 plantations, 1 golf resort, 1 yacht club, 1 beachside resort and the Citadel beachclub. By the end of the day our heads were spinning!
We only liked the Middleton Plantation and semi-liked the Citadel beachclub. The others were all outdoor events, or weren't capable of holding enough people, or just weren't at all what we had envisioned.
Once we debated, we knocked out the Citadel because it's not easy to get to from the hotels etc. in town.
We then debated between the Point and Middleton Plantation. Middleton was gorgeous, old oak trees and spanish moss, and impecable gardens. The reception hall was pretty too and could easily hold what we needed and was air conditioned. The issues being that it's in Charleston and is a 3 hour ride from here, and they have packages that we may not be able to customize.
The Point was surprisingly gorgeous - I really didn't expect it to be so pretty. The ceremony can be outdoors, but under cover with the lake as a background and the reception is in a gorgeous hall that overlooks the lake. It's closer to home, and Kelley (wedding planner) was really sweet and can help customize the menus to our tastes.
When Mom called to ask about September 5 or 6, 2009 Kelley let her know that the 6th was taken so we're looking at the 5th!
September 5, 2009!! :)
