The Perfect Place

Shortly after we were engaged my family was visiting from Ohio and Kevin's mom from California. We decided it would be the perfect opportunity to pick the location. We did some searching and narrowed it down before we took 5 1/2 (the half was my new nephew) on this crazy adventure. 5 people means 5 opinions everywhere we went. Everyone had something they absolutely hated about each place! After a few trips we finally looked at Alhambra Hall in Mount Pleasant. We all loved it, but Kevin and I didn't love the availability. Two Saturday's were available when we looked at it, August 29th and September 5th. If you live in the area you know that hurricanes and humidity are a bit of a problem in August. But, we collected all the information we needed to make a decision because our families all loved it. A week later we noticed one of the Saturdays disappeared. We panicked, if we wanted to get married here we had to move quickly. Kevin filled out the contract and we notified everyone that we'd be saying "i do" overlooking the ocean at Alhambra Hall in August! What a relief, we found an affordable place to get married in Charleston.
