Venue Hunting

This weekend my fiance and I looked around at some venues.. We had heard some good things about The Orchard, a bretheren church in Te Puke, so we went to have a look at that for the ceremony. The building's lights were out and no one appeared to be there so we walked around looking through the windows to get an idea of the facilities. We were around the back, looking into the kitchen when the back sliding doors opened! We figured there must be someone in, so we hesitantly walked inside, about to peek into the auditorium when the security alarm goes off!! Startled and giggling, we hurridly walked back outside, around the building and drove away, needless to say we were in riots. I guess that ones off the list!

A few people had recommended a venue in Tauranga so we drove there to see it for ourselves, again this was at night time (probably not the best venue-looking time of day...) so we peered in through the windows. No alarm this time. The place was lovely and quaint, already set up for a wedding with white tablecloths and chair covers and everything! The venue is called Daniels in the Park, here are some photos from their website:



Our theme is white and gold, so maybe we could have the ties on the chairs done in gold. Hmmm.
