Freaking out a little bit! Soo excited!

I got the contract today for our reception!!! I'm so freakin excited!! We are having our reception dinner at Mandalay Bay!! It's so crazy because last week I was set on Maggiano's. Why the "sybil" reaction? I am quite sure it has everything to do with Mandalay Bay not needing a deposit, or a room fee to meet. I'm not exactly sure how many people are making the trip to Vegas with us, so to be stuck in a contract that requires a room fee of $2000 and a non-refundable deposit of $500 seemed a little crazy to me! Oh, and if I wanted a dance floor, the room for that was an extra grand. Nothing against Maggiano's. I've heard nothing but stellar reviews. I just can't justify that amount of money when I don't have attendance numbers yet. What if only 10 people come? How the heck would I meet the room fee? I'd get taxed on 2 grand regardless. We're only doing the buffet, but we are having an after party in a suite at the same hotel!! YAY!! So fun!

In other wedding news, I contacted A Special Memory today to book our ceremony, was put on hold, then asked if the WC could call me back. She didn't. If I didn't love this chapel, and they weren't responsive to emails, I would consider looking elsewhere. I'll give them a call again tomorrow. Hopefully it works out better for me.
Man I feel like a big weight has been lifted off my shoulders!
