FH and I are going to a 'Welcome Reception' at our wedding venue Sunday! I'm super excited, we'll get to meet some of the people we haven't meant yet that run the venue, get to taste our menu and some different menu items. (Crab cakes!), See the chocolate fountain & choose are 5 items for dipping(Super excited about this) and also see some linens and things like that. Since I haven't been to the venue since June I'm dying to see it again. They take the palm trees down in November and it's not as full of boats but I'm sure it's still beautiful :-)
I'm sure I'll take tons of pictures!!!
This is our original menu, let's see if we come home with the same one!
