Venue

So I have gone around and around about the perfect venue. I have go East, and West and I THINK that I have finally found "the one".


Here is a list of places that I have considered. *at one point*


-Flying home to california and having a small wedding.
-The Randall T Moore Center in Shreveport LA.
             (it's a real nice place and cheap, but to small)
-The Scotish Rite Temple in Shreveport LA
-The Gazebos in Shreveport
             (pretty expensive for such a small venue and no alcohal and too small for the # of invites)
-Hill Country Village
              (Cory said the man was asking weird questions in which made him feel uncomfortable)
-The American Legion in Shreveport LA
              (beautiful, but public)
-The Elk Lodge in Shreveport LA
              (nice but not enough space for the outside wedding I dream of)
-Olde Oaks Golf Course in Haugton LA
-The Barnwell Art and Garden Center
              (Had my heart set on this place till I realized that it was going to cost 80% of my budget in rent)
-The American Rose Center
-The Robinson Film Center
-Several theaters downtown Shreveport
-The Historic Fire House in Ruston
-The Civic Center in Ruston
-The Norton Building in Ruston
-The Country Club in Ruston
-A quit little place off the Highway in Simsboro called Creekwood Gardens
              (my fiance' and I have been to a wedding there and it was gorgeous but ALL ouside)
-Savoie's Catering Place in Shreveport
-All the country clubs in Shreveport (YES all)
-Universal Chapel in Shreveport
-Brown Chapel at Centenary College
-SilverLake Ballroom in Shreveport
-Holiday Inn downtown
-Our own church
and even the Country Club in Minden


But after all these options and all this research as far as how many can it hold, how much does it cost, what vendors you can and can not use I have found the perfect venue for my outdoor ceremony/indoor reception that will hold all 160-200 guest for a great price.


The El Karubah Shrine in Shreveport. There is a slight downfall but I am dealing with it.
