This process is not fun. Maybe I'm not doing it right but so far, no fun. It's a real test of your heart's ability to withstand heartbreak.
Exhibit A: The Sea Ranch
We know in order to have a great wedding on a budget creativity is key. Our first effort at creativity was to decide to have a small wedding in an unconventional place.
So we chose the Sea Ranch at $1400 a night for 3 nights. 72 hrs of family vacation time + a wedding for what most places charge for a 4 hr wedding. It was a great idea, and were convinced we beat the system. Then I slipped and told them it wasn't a small family reunion we were hosting it was actually a small wedding. BTW- Cardinal wedding planning rule #1: never mention wedding. Wedding = $$$$$$$ and Sea Ranch was no exception. A wedding at Sea Ranch = $8000 on top of the cost for the $1400 x 3 night stay. HEARTBREAK city.
