i wanted the wedding out of town, away from the noise and gate crashers :). not that im a celebrity, but people have an annoying habit of not RSVPing and then changing their minds at the last minute because they have nothing to do... i also wanted a beach wedding where we had the beach as a background. but since we really could not afford a beach wedding out of town, we finally settled for a place we could afford.
its not really a bad looking place. actually, when i first attended an event in this restaurant, i fell in love with the glass walls overlooking a small boating lake. This restaurant happens to be inside one of the parks in the heart of Dubai, 5 minutes away from my house, so there's a lot of greenery. the only issue i had with the venue was that i referred a friend of mine to get married at this same place a year ago. i dont know whats wrong with me, but i just wanted something different...
anyway, the owner being a friend of mine, gave me a good deal and promised to help me out big time.
fiance just wanted to get the issue about the venue settled. i was a little hesitant but after discussing where we could have the ceremony inside the park, i finally decided to go for it. we really needed to have a venue to start preparing for the other issues like flowers and stuff... we have less than 4 months to go.
now i need to start working on my invites...
