More Rehearsal Dinner Research
We got the initial proposal from the venue we were scouting out for the rehearsal dinner. Unfortunately, we were just a little surprised by some of the rental fees. While the location, food and atmostphere are all great, it might turn out to be a little pricier than we'd like. We're taking a look at a couple other places right now.
There might not be much movement on this, though, until next week. My mom and sisters are headed to Pennsylvania for a family reunion (Mary and I couldn't make it, unfortunately) and I'll be out on my bachelor party trip this weekend. Despite what some of my co-workers think, I'm sure we'll all make it back with no injuries ;)
Rehearsal Dinner Research
Although this happened last Monday, I'm trying to space out our posts a little bit. It seems as if there have been new developments every day over the last four or five days!
Anyway, last Monday, Mary and I met my Mom, my Uncle (who just happened to be in town from Texas), and my Sisters and their families for dinner. We met at a potential rehearsal dinner location downtown right on the river. The restaurant just recently opened part of their space for events, but they've been in business for a while. We first were turned on to them because my sister, Liz, is their Sysco Foods rep. So she knows a lot of people there, knows a lot of the internal workings of the restaurant, and also occasionally uses their space for an office :) While we're still in the investigation phase, this pre-existing relationship has proven to be very helpful!
Should my parents and Mary and I end up choosing this restaurant (and I think we will), I'll be sure to include more details. Stay tuned!
