Jenny and I went to three places recently to scout out possibilities for our wedding ceremony and/or reception. You can view the pictures of all three at http://flickr.com/photos/davereid20/sets/72157612372737873/show/.
Location 1: Magnolia Hotel
Pros: Very pretty, super-awesome honeymoon suite (it has two floors!), close to everything in downtown Omaha, nearly everything is included
Cons: Very out of our price range
Location 2: Durham Western Heritage Museum
Pros: Very pretty and classic, within our price range, close to everything in downtown Omaha, Jenny's favorite museum (she stayed there overnights as a girl scout)
Cons: We'll have to rent our own tables, chairs, linens, etc. and do our own decorating
Location 3: A View at Fontenelle Hills
Pros: Cute, cosy, very pretty views on a golf course, everything included, you basically get a wedding planner included
Cons: It's in Bellevue kind of out in the middle of no where (harder to get to for those traveling and in bad weather), not as handicap accessible, it just opened up in November and hasn't even had a wedding there yet, just a tad out of our price range
So far we're leaning heavily towards the Durham Western Heritage Museum, but we're still considering any other options. Have any comments or options? Comment!
