Looking for a cool place to get re-married
 
Can anyone recommend a fun place to get married? We wanted pictures since we never had a traditional wedding.

hmmm...whatcha have in mind? Elvis? Gondolas? Midevil?<BR><BR>I got married there in November, but we went the more traditional route with Monte Carlo. There is an awesome Vegas wedding forum over at www.weddingchat.com. It's under the &quot;Destination Weddings&quot; heading. I started a huge list of everything Vegas that another bride-to-be has since taken over.<BR><BR>There are tons of options. You just need to decide on what you want and what you want to spend. I'll help as much as I can.<BR><BR>good luck!<BR>snarla

Where are you? Try Skamania Lodge in Washington state. It sits in the Rockies and is a ski lodge but in the spring the flowers are in bloom. They have a champagne brunch on Sundays that is well worth the trip.<BR>OR if you want free flowers..try the National Rose Garden in Portland Oregon in about mid June every type of rose in every color is in bloom. There is also a Japanese Garden there that is very beautiful and tranquil. Congrats.

Did the Hyatt on Maui for our 10 year anniversary. The vow-renewal package has all kinds of a la carte options for pictures, flowers, food, hawaiian dancers etc...to fit every budget. The wedding coordinator there is awesome! I think I spent about $2,500 for the ceremony (including photos) and about $1500 for dinner afterwords. There were 16 of us.

snarla, I was wondering about that, made me read it twice:)<BR>If I were to renew vows, I would want my children with me since they weren't the first time;) and I would like somewhere naturally beautiful.<BR>So since Paris is out for now:)<BR>I think Northern California, along the coast, a beach- Hawaii, Jamaica, Bermuda, or if you don't live here, NYC-:) Many photo ops in NYC..carriages in the Park, lakes and fountains in the Park, the skyline, the buildings.<BR>Hmmm, this is a nice idea, think I might go talk to my Yankee husband about this~

My vote goes to NYC.

Len:<BR><BR>I know my recommendation will not be super glamorous but how about Cape May, NJ? I love all the Victorian houses in that area and I know, through reading the travel guide, that many huge B&amp;Bs in that area host weddings for either the ceremony or reception. I don't know where you live or when you are getting married, but a July or August wedding in Cape May would appeal to me as a bride or a guest.<BR><BR>
