Wedding Venue Selection

We started wedding planning this week... hooray!  We started viewing venues Wednesday and finished up this afternoon.  The five we looked into are the Rainier Club, the Woodmark Hotel, Willows Lodge, Novelty Hill - Januik winery, and the Edgewater Hotel.  Here are a few pictures:

The HUGE fireplace at the Rainier Club.  They even set up food stations in it!

The outdoor space at Willows Lodge was just amazing.  And there were potbelly piggys!

It looks like we have a pretty big decision on our hands.  I think we have it narrowed down to two so there will be a lot of comparing going on in the next few days.  More wedding stuff to come... stay tuned!
