Wedding Wednesday: The Venue

*Unfortunately, I do not have any pictures of the venue, so I am mainly using pictures from the venue's facebook page*

I must admit, we did not search long and hard for a venue.

That's because as soon as we walked into this place, we knew it was where we wanted to get married.

The venue we chose was Pristine Chapel Lakeside

Front Entrance

This facility is absolutely Gorgeous!!

I won't lie...the lobby & chandelier is one of the things that sold us.

The venue is all-inclusive, meaning if you choose to, they can provide EVERYTHING for your wedding. From Invitations, to the Cake, Flowers, DJ, Photography, Video, accessories...everything except the attire. (But they give discounts for using preferred stores)

Wedding Chapel (Notice how long the Aisle is!!)

 I will continue being honest...the length of the Aisle is the second thing that sold us on this place.

Altar

We are used them for everything but our Invitations & other Accessories. (Favors etc.) 

Their work is PHENOMENAL!! 

Bride & Groom Dressing Area  

There are 4 of these rooms (Dreesing Rooms) total.  One at each of the 4 corners of the facility.  This is to make sure that the Bride and Groom never see each other until the Ceremony. For example,  If the Groom and his Groomsmen entered the facility on the southern right side of the building, the Bride and her Bridesmaids entered on the northern, left side of the building.  The 2 remaining dressing rooms (northern left & southern right) are left vacant.

These rooms were spacious and had TV's in the so that we could see what was going on in the Chapel as we were getting dressed.  Of course the Men were on one side of the venue and the women were on the other.

The sole picture I could find (online at work :) of the reception area. 

Sample Table Setting

You can choose to have an indoor ceremony and reception or an outdoor ceremony (lakeside) and an indoor Reception. 
 

We chose to have an indoor ceremony and reception because the Chapel was so nice. Plus we really wanted to have our Ceremony in a church setting.  

Below are pictures of the lakeside area where outdoor ceremonies take place.

Happy Wednesday!!
