wedding

I've been starting to think about wedding plans. Was poking around online last night, researching venues, pondering aesthetics. I got overwhelmed, and ended up staying awake all night. I tried going to sleep for awhile, but the baby was hogging the bed, and my arm fell asleep from trying to lie funny around him. So I just got up and researched some more. I can see how people easily freak out about this stuff.

So far, my #1 choice for location is Bok Tower Gardens in Lake Wales. [Bok Tower Gardens on Wikipedia.] I haven't found out how much it costs because I'm afraid to. Gardens & trails, mossy oaks, a bell tower, 1930s mansion, views overlooking orange groves. Very Old Florida. I am sold. For now. Things could change.

My file of wedding inspiration photos keeps growing as I wait for my Pinterest invite. Right now, I'm thinking orange blossom tiaras and candles in mason jars.

OR, how about a ranch wedding? Ranch reception? Is a one hour drive unreasonable from the ceremony to the reception? Probably.
