Venue, checked!

Wedding planning is in full swing. If you ever thought you would have a moment to breathe after getting engaged, think again. Once you get engaged and it is announced (no take backs!)... prepare for the onslaught of questions to begin:
When is the wedding?! Where are you getting married?! What are your wedding colors? Who's your bridesmaids? Wait, when is the wedding, again?! 

Well, I can finally give all the excited, overeager supplicants an answer! Aha, we are getting married at Lakeside Gardens!

George and I have slightly different reasons for loving Lakeside.

George will tell you about the beauty of Lakeside with its ponds/waterfalls/gardens. It's also secluded without being too far from the city. There are even swans that swim on the lake (supposedly... we have not yet eye-witnessed that claim). Plus it fulfills our desire for an outdoor wedding, with an indoor reception, all at one location.

I, however, have a purely practical reason for choosing Lakeside. The bottom line warms my heart.
