About a month ago I went to the Tulsa Wedding show and got a lot of information for a bunch of different locations, photographers, and anything else you can think of for a wedding. I was so over whelmed with information but it was so neat to see all the decor and different companies that wanted to be apart of my wedding. It was so great sharing my first wedding experience with two of my bridesmaids and my mom and I can't wait to share even more amazing times with them.
The first thing I have been worried about is finding the right place! I really want both the ceremony and reception at the same place so no one has to worry about driving somewhere else! The day after the Tulsa Wedding Show they had some locations open for people to visit. My mom, brother and I went and visited two different places. The first place we went to visit was the Jazz Hall of Fame, you can hold both the ceremony and reception here, but my mom wants me to get married in a chapel or a church. When we walked into the reception room I was in awe because it was what I had always pictured. It was a huge room with a stage and it was just amazing. I left there saying it was the place. We then went to the next place, Vesica Piscis Chapel, I also call it the double ring Chapel. This space also hold both the ceremony and reception but I was not very pleased with the reception place. It just felt like a white room with some tables set up. When I walked into the chapel and then down the isle I started crying. I knew this was the kind of place I wanted to get married in. Then my mind went back to the Jazz Hall, but its to far away from each other to use both places. I have been trying to find a reception place near the double ring chapel and so far all I have found is the hard rock casino. They have beautiful pictures online I can't wait to see it in person. Everything is up in the air I am still looking for a chapel or church downtown to use if I pick the Jazz Hall and their is still a few other places I would like to check into. I cant wait to figure out the place so I can start picturing everything for our special place.
Here are the three places that I have been looking at, if you have an opinion don't be afraid to share!
