Time to talk venues. In my opinion, the venue is the most important piece of the wedding/event equation. Well..maybe it's second to food. Okay, maybe they're equally important. In any case, once the venue is confirmed, have you noticed that things start to magically fall into place?
Online research can only do so much - I much prefer discovering venues in person.
I had the pleasure of stumbling upon Brecknock Hall out on the North Fork of Long Island a couple of weekends ago when I coordinated the wedding of a very lovely couple - J & M.
The building is a beautifully restored mansion from the mid-1800's, located on the grounds of Peconic Landing. Both the outdoor and indoor space are wonderfully conducive for different set ups for weddings and events. This particular wedding held the ceremony on the front porch with chairs set up on the front lawn, the cocktail hour throughout the various rooms of the mansion, and the reception in a tented area in the back.
In addition to the space being beautiful, the venue manager is quite pleasant to deal with and was so very helpful in ensuring everything went well.
More photos and vendor recaps for this wedding to come in a separate post!
Hmm...I suppose it's never too EARLY to start looking for the perfect space is it?
