    That's great! You've got a great start on the planning!

    Have you visited any venues yet? What type of venue are you interested in?

    I am looking at a couple of venues in the Chicagoland area but I have not actually visited anything as of yet. My plans were to fly home and visit venues next year probably around May or july

    That's a great idea. You could have some viewings lined up before visiting and make the most of your time!

    They all look like great venues!

    How many guests are you planning on inviting? What capacity venue do you need?

    Honestly, some of my vendors pushed back when we first reached out, but by mid-April it was pretty clear there was not going to be a 115 person event in NYC. By then, everyone was super accommodating. All of our vendors switched everything over for free and everyone was available on our new date!


    Probably going to do a micro-elopement on our original date because we were looking forward to it for two years and we’re emotionally attached to that date now.

    My orginal date is to get married in 2021. I honestly dont know if my little wedding I planned is going to work next year. We only wanted at least 60 people. My vendors are pretty cool and down to earth. So I will put down deposits within the next couple of months.

    Oh ok. Wow that’s great! My venue has the catering and the wedding cake included. I actually won an engagement photo session from a sweepstakes I entered. Now I’m in the process of looking for a DJ and photographer. I haven’t even started looking for an officiant yet.
