farm lake

there's a barn about 1/4 mile away from our home. the woman who owns it hosts parties and other events there, mostly for the local university.

however, i spoke to her and she said there have been quite a few weddings there as well!

the cost of $740 includes a bonfire, hayrides, tables, and chairs! this is just waaaay more convenient for us. my family won't have to drive 4 hours and his family and friends are right here in town.

we won't have to rent restrooms, chairs, or tables! plus, it's cheaper to begin with. we will just save a ton of money doing it there.

the location is definitely not as romantic or dreamy, but the other things outweigh that, hands-down.
