The Hotel Phillips in downtown KC. I haven't looked at it yet, but I still think that it would be my number 1 choice for venue (their menus look AMAZING!), and it's not big enough to handle the sit-down dinner Jesse and I want to have.
Shoot, shoot, shoot...
Actually, it can accomodate the number we'll probably end up with, but it'd be all funky, with the dance floor in one room, the game room in another spot, and the dinner on a totally different level of the hotel. Which would mean a need for 2 DJs. I don't know...maybe it'd work. I don't know, I don't know...It could be neat, I suppose. I'm just gonna have to go look at it, I think, so I can have a better picture in my head of how it'd all break down.
I start visiting venues tomorrow! Jesse would rather skip the visit to the golf club on Saturday morning so he can try to work earlier so he can finish up earlier and sit down to watch the Notre Dame game with me after he's done in the kitchen. That's fine with me. (Even though we have TiVo and can record the game and watch it on Sunday night, which I probably would want to do anyway as the USC game is on at the exact same time as the Notre Dame game on Saturday night and it's gonna be hard to focus on both games at the same time, but whatever. Boys are silly sometimes...)
I'm feeling better today than I did yesterday. I got a lot of sleep last night (a whole 7 hours!), had a fun morning dropping the puppy off for her snip-snip appointment - and no, I don't mean a haircut, and a coworker is buying lunch today because I hauled a bunch of cases of beer (with the help of my co-admin here at the office) to a 4th floor open house they were throwing at one of their properties last night. So yeah...so far, so good. Hopefully I'll have time to contact all the churches on my list sometime this afternoon! I'll keep y'all posted on what I find out...

i think it's cool that you want to get married in a church, but that also means you have to go to their wedding classes. ick.
My dad says that the marriage classes were actually pretty neat, in his eyes. He said that when he and my step-mom went through them, they didn't discuss religion at all, but rather they discussed their relationship and how things would be throughout their marriage to each other, etc, etc...THAT is something I think every couple should do prior to getting married, regardless of their religious beliefs.
I'm not sure how it varies from church to church, and of course with Jesse's schedule, it's going to be hard to find a way to complete any kind of required marriage classes, but that's one of the things I need to find out about once I figure out whether we can get married in a church or not.
Marriage shouldn't be a 1-2-3, say your vows, ok you're done! kinda thing, IMO. If people took it more seriously, and didn't see it as a burden to have to consider taking some sort of class or get counceling prior to the final steps down the aisle, it might be a bit different when it comes to divorce rates in the US. Personally, I feel like Jesse and I are in a good place, communicating well and learning about each other at a pace that is complimentary to our relationship. But hey, it can't hurt to sit down and have a few hours of managed discussions or conversations with outsiders, can it? I dunno...
