The Venue Search - Part 2

On our way back from Wisconsin, we decided to stop by a few venues to check them out for the wedding!  In the end it was a really hard choice to decide where we were going to have our wedding, but ended up choosing Bobak's Signature Events.   We really loved lots about each one of the locations we visited and they really would have made an amazing wedding!


Meridian Banquet & Conference Center

Outside Entrance

Inside Location we would use for reception

This location was just beautiful! They had a room available for a ceremony to take place and could offer us a lot for our reception.  It was amazing how small a room could look without anything in it!  We saw a room with nothing and a room full of tables, and it was amazing how small the empty room looked!  The coordinator we talked with was so helpful and nice - since she knew this was our only time in the area she even showed us cakes and helped us find a way that she could work best with us across country!  The only down fall was that there was not really any place to take photos nearby or on-site.  If we were going to be having out ceremony and reception in the same place, we didn't want to have to leave after the ceremony to get some pictures!

 Midwest Conference Center.
 Next, we traveled to the Midwest Conference Center which promoted amazing views like the one below. 

The Publicized View

The Actual View

Oh my! How amazing did that first picture's view look?  Well - really it didn't look that amazing in person.  We saw a ton of trains and tracks!  Also, the lady was so disorganized that we didn't feel like this was our fit!  She seemed in a big hurry to get us in and out and kept leaving us to go check on others who were there.  She kept trying to give a bottle of wine to this other guy she kept leaving us for, and in the end he was not allowed to accept gifts!  So, we left that meeting with a bottle of wine.  The really cool thing about this location was that we would have our own FLOOR to ourselves.

Bobak's Signature Events

Lastly for the day, we went to Bobak's Signature Events and met with Liz. 

Outside, ceremony location

Inside, reception location

We absolutely loved Bobak's!  Liz was absolutely amazing and so down to earth!  Liz also had a ton of ideas that she started giving out from the moment we walked through the door.  It is almost like having our own wedding coordinator. Something that set this place apart was not only did it have a great interior, but the exterior was amazing as well.  We had places for photos as well as the ceremony and reception.  

Look for more on Bobak's in future blog posts!
