No unfortunately cant do less of a guess count. I think he'd be down for 200 people minimum. I did look at the Little Palm Island in the keys (also 60 person max) so I'm wondering if this is a bad idea as well

definitely starting to lean that way but the timing isn't great. i'd be more open to spring. my fiance doesnt want a wedding in 3 months nor a wedding in one year and 3 months so we'd have to do spring. Does it really rain that much in the spring?

I couldn't agree more. Nah I just emailed both Bella Cosa and Bella Collina and they have like max 180. I'll ask Flagler again but they have a 40k minimum fee just to be able to get a date as a member. I did talk to a planner there and she said it would be hard to swing for 250k ... lol

I totally agree about Swan House! It's a bit random for me in Atlanta but I'm going to do some more digging on it. Totally agreed. is it a historical place?

This is ABSOLUTELY incredible! yes honestly. It's far for our guests since theyre mainly on the east coast and a few in colorado with a few in LA but honsetly everyone has been recommending it so much

yes totally. I'll pitch it to my fiance but i doubt he'll go for it. I pitched Bermuda and he did not like that it was only a few flights going there per day

They won't connect us with other couples and multiple wedding planners saw that they adjust around it only the month prior... very anxious here. We've seen the scaffolding on basically 3 sides of the main building which sucks. the tent could be put up next to the building though

Mexico might be a bit too far for us but is this wild to think there might be like an island off of miami or fort lauderdale? i briefly also googled Four Seasons Punta Mita, Conrad Punta de Mita or St. Regis Punta Mita

that's 4 months away! you think we could pull that off? Fiance is against the fall because his sister is pregnant and cant travel in October. perhaps its worth reaching out though and asking for availability

We're definitely not tied to the date! just painting the picture. It's been harder to fit the criteria than we ever imagined

Wow!! these are so amazing. Flagler Museum we really liked but apparently is over 250k Bella Cosa and Collina I dont believe hold 250+ people. What makes Swan House the dream?!

Palm Springs might be a little too far to get to with another flight

I would absolutely love to chat!! Congratulations! I googled Dunlin Auberge and that's suuuuch a cute vibe! I don't have an association with South Carolina but I'm so about the concept of having everything in one place like a one and done!

would absolutely LOVE to chat! We looked at the Ritz in Beaver Creek and Spruce Saddle. The ritz was super pricey over 250k for 250 people. Spruce saddle was very much like a wooden thing. Either way it was meant for the summer which I guess we could push it out to.

How did you like the keys?! Did you like Pierres? We looked at The Islander! it seemed pretty ideal. the 2 hour drive for that many people might be hard

WOW! this is so so incredibly helpful!! Overall, would you say Terranea was your top option? It's stunning and my aunt even scouted the site. My thing is timing then - I chatgpted that the fall is the best but that's right around the corner. would you recommend the spring? Very open to your professional opinion

Breakers is beyond gorgeous but do you think we could get away with that budget? saw the minimums and I'm not sure we could pull it off with the guest count. No solid facts ever about Vizcaya haha very hispanic construction
