Places we will NOT be holding the wedding...
Whoever said choosing a venue for a wedding was easy has obviously not tried to do it in the heart of Mayberry. Now that Andy Griffith has retired and moved away, there aren't a whole lot of exciting options out there. And while there are some, there always seems to be a roadblock. Whether there were no dates available (Caffe Luna), too far (The Castle McCulloch), too expensive (The Landmark; $7500 just for the venue fee!), poor upkeep (The Tucker House), or whatever - there are just walls everywhere. We've thought about going to the beach, but travelling with 4 kids isn't easy while planning a wedding. We've thought about Vegas, but getting married by Elvis seems to make a mockery of the sanctity of marriage. Anyway, here's a partial list of places that won't work. When you're finished, you can add in the Clayton Center, the Velvet Cloak Inn, the Fuquay Inn, and several others.

Oh, man. I'm sorry you guys are having such a tough time. I hope you can find something that works soon.
bummer. Believe it or not, I was just reading an article yesterday about people now having their nuptuals at cemeteries, of all places! hope you find something soon! do you have any family/friends who would consider having it at their home?
Castle! It must be the one! Then you can behead any unwanted/unruly guests, and invoke the 'Droit de Signeur'...
I got married on a wine farm, which was so cool. Keep looking for the right venue, dude.
I got married in Vegas.. and not by Elvis.
It was cheap.. about 200 bucks.
It was in the chapel of the Monte Carlo.
It was really pretty.. the 200 bucks included photography.
Course, that was 10 years ago.. so who knows what the cost is now..
Wow... That's amazing. And a castle?!!! I'd go for it even if it was a little farther than everywhere else!!! But that's just me...
;D
Good luck. Hope you find the right place.
