LAUREN AND DAN'S WEDDING

May, 2008 in El Dorado

"Our wedding was beautiful and went smoothly for the most part. We were able to keep the costs down by renting the civic center and bringing in a caterer and being creative with the decorations, as opposed to a venue where you have to work w/ a certain caterer and stick to certain rules about the appearance of the venue. I also chose to go w/ a more expensive cake but have a smaller one and use several sheet cakes. This was I could still have the cake look exactly how I wanted w/out spending too much. We also used the bridemaid bouquets to decorate the tables at the Civic Center."

The only good thing that came about was that we got our $$ back for the room but not untl I filed a complaint. The hotel looks nice but I wouldn't reccommend b/c of all the problems we had."
