The Chapel

So I'd love thoughts on how to make the chapel look nice, yet simple (and not spend a lot of money).


Step One: A Date

Okay, so after what seemed like months (4.5 days) of deliberation we have settled on a date: April 5th, 2008. It has a nice ring to it.

But that is so not why I was lobbying for it. I wish we had the freedom to choose from any nice sounding Saturday (or Sunday even) in the spring and summer months. But because of a) our desire to to baseball things on our honeymoon (that sounds kind of dirty, let me clarify, because of our desire to see baseball games in NY and Boston on our honeymoon) we had to get married April-Sept. b) because of my alleged writing career the April 15th-June 1st are no fly zone re: being out of town because that is the heat of staffing season, and I would like to get a job as a writer one of these days. c) because we want at least 6 months to "get ready" for the wedding a + b + c = April 5th.

The chapel at Lake is available. Here's a pic of the chapel for those of you who have never seen it:


It's pretty fancy. But I think we can make it look simple and classy. I'll make another post where we can discuss how to make the chapel look nice.

So we have a date and location. I'm stoked. It all feels much realer now...
