The reality is our two married daughters were very respectful of the amount of money we “discussed” early in their wedding planning. They made a list of things that were high priority to them - a unique venue, a live band and open bar topped the lists for both of them. I insisted that the brides wedding outfit be outside the budget. Our oldest wanted a tented reception & originally wanted it to be on the water in Newport RI. There were none that met the tent requirement in Newport (thankfully LOL). They ended up at Blithewold Mansion & Gardens in the lovely little seaside town of Bristol RI. They had a permanently erected tent & cocktail hour was held on the patio of the mansion and the lawn overlooking the bay. Our middle DD also wanted something near or on the water. They chose the New Bedford Whaling Museum. Cocktail hour was in the ship room and the top floor of the museum is the dining/reception area. In the end, both went over the amounts we originally discussed, but they chose wisely and had the weddings of their dreams. Both venues are beautiful but that ship room.Wow. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is the significance of being raised 5 times? I've seen where the Bride and Groom are lifted up on chairs during Jewish Weddings also. I'm guessing the raising up has to do with wishing Good Luck... 9 hours ago, bobmacliberty said: The scary thing is that I think I DO have an idea what I'm in for, but I'm still probably wrong.

Sunshine3601 Posted May 28, 2022 #58808 Share Posted May 28, 2022 All these wedding venues look gorgeous! today has been a long day. We attended the funeral of my very good friends Father today. I have known the family for almost 40 yrs. He will be dearly missed by all. At first we thought we would just attend the viewing and funeral service at the church but Eric was asked to be a pallbearer so we went to the cemetary and everyone insisted we go to the lunch. I am glad we did as I got to catch up with a lot of old friends that I grew up with and haven't seen in many years. We are exhausted and going to throw some burgers on the grill and relax on the patio as the weather here is simply beautiful. Hopefully it stays that way for the rest of the weekend as we have yard work to do and want to vacuum and wash our cars tomorrow. Eric also needs to put new brake pads on my convertible. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it would be tough like shoe leather but it wasn't. Doctored it up with onions and bacon, but still not sure it's for me. Told my Wife she is going to have a lot of liver to eat then. LOL I grew up eating liver w/onions and bacon. I always loved it..I even once ordered it in a restaurant; and yet, I haven't eaten it in many many years, and no longer have a desire to eat it any more.🤔 8 hours ago, aussielozzie18 said: My daughter tells me she wants to be married by Elvis in Vegas…think I should encourage her given your experience.

Being in Cincinnati, unfortunately there's not much "on the water". My daughter is like your eldest in that she wants an outdoor ceremony and tented reception. She ended up choosing the Pinecroft at Crosley Estate. We'll have the gorgeous estate and gardens all to ourselves on the wedding day. The entire upper floor of the mansion is for the bride and her bridesmaids/mothers, while the basement is for the groom/groomsmen/fathers. Assuming that the weather cooperates, the cermony will be outdoors in the garden, cocktails will be in the mansion itself, and the reception will be in the permanent tent/pavilion that holds up to 325 people seated. I'm hoping we end up more in the 200 range, as the current guest list is a little above that already. What a beautiful setting. It will surely be an amazing day. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her family is only her husband and their dog.She is at their summer home in upstate NY.Her husband went home to Manhattan because he has many medical problems and if he gets Covid there could be a problem. We last saw her 9 days ago but Toby took a Covid test a short while ago and it was negative. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As unfortunate and sad as it is to attend a funeral of one's friend or family, etc. the one good thing is how it brings everyone together who will otherwise not have possibly gotten together. I am sorry about your friend's Dad, Debbie. May he Rest in Peace. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare aussielozzie18 Posted May 28, 2022 #58822 Share Posted May 28, 2022 My initial choice for our wedding reception was Curzon Hall. Beautiful venue. But because mum was paying, she talked me into having the wedding reception on Sydney Harbour for the English relatives. It was a good decision. We had the ceremony at a lovely church in Manly, then drove around in vintage white jaguars to Taronga Zoo Wharf and boarded a private charter vessel for our wedding reception. We had a beautiful day. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
