Fl wedding sites/honeymoon suggestions
 
HI everyone - i need some help and maybe someone could guide me in the right directioin.
I'm getting married this year and we're thinking of having a simple ceremony with just the two of us and a few family and friends (no more than 15) someplace in central FL - preferably Orlando. I''m looking for something low budget in a nice setting - a garden/by a lake or the beach. Any suggestions would be more than welcome.

Concerning the honeymoon - kinda toying with Hawaii for a few days. I've been on the web non-stop and there are soooo many places to choose from.

Would love to hear from you guys.

Florida to hawaii for a few days is a tough trip... long flights, time zones, jet lag... you will be numb... wait on Hawaii for at least 10 to 14 days(anniversary maybe)

Consider the US Virgin Islands for your few days... St John is beautiful as is St Thomas... there are Hawaii type resorts and its well worth a three or four day trip... good luck!

Contact an Orlando wedding photographer to quote your wedding and ask about attractive and economic venues.

"a garden/by a lake" Leu Gardens in Orlando has both and is lovely: http://www.leugardens.org/Weddings.html

There are other parks in Orlando that could also fit your needs: http://www.cityoforlando.net/fpr/Htm...ding_Locations

Sorry, forgot Winter Park, which is just north of Orlando:
http://www.cityofwinterpark.org/Page.../Weddings.aspx The Rose Garden or Kraft Azalea Park could work - Kraft Azalea is especially secluded and on a lake.

I agree with 321go. Leu Gardens is very nice and you can't beat the Winter Park location. I got married in Orlando 4 years ago so please let me know if you need any recommendations. I loved my photographer and my cake.
