Possible Wedding Locations and Plans

All I did was walk into David's Bridal today, bridesmaid dress shopping for Nina's wedding (we found and bought our bridesmaid dresses for her wedding!), and I am now wedding obsessed. Not only do I find myself looking into cute bride gifts that I think Nina cannot do without (as I should be doing with my maid of honor duties), but I also find myself diligently researching options and details for my own wedding.

A couple ideas have crossed my mind. I want the colors to be "guava" and orange/pink. Any coral, salmon, pink, or orange color really. We plan on having a late summer wedding. I have been looking into locations also. My dream is Lovett Hall in Greenfield Village. I would LOVE to get married there!! However, it costs a ridiculous amount of money. I have also been looking at the Dearborn Inn, Grosse Pointe War Memorial, and the Inn at St. Johns in Plymouth. All have different pros and cons, but it looks as though we have time to decide. I'd like to go look at all of them first too. Matt wants the ceremony to be on the water, so have been thinking about Blossom Heath or the Grosse Pointe War Memorial for that. However, the Grosse Pointe War Memorial has a lot of requirements that I don't know we'd be able to meet (i.e. must have a veteran in the family or be a Grosse Pointe resident, etc.)

I have also been looking at wedding dresses online and love the big Cinderella ones :) I have all of my bridesmaids and am assured that Matt's groomsmen will all be selected by tomorrow! I will update everyone soon!
