We’ve been called by Brandon Hall hotel to come back and have a look around a couple of their other rooms. It turns out after all this time (and multiple visits) that the room we have always been shown for the evening dinner and celebrations will likely be too large for us and the hotel ‘strongly recommends against that room’. They are instead interested in hosting us either in the dining room or in the Brandon Hall Suite. Now we have seen the dining room and the Brandon Hall Suite on previous visits (the Suite – because it is where the ceremony would be held) however we’ve never looked at it with a view to using it as a wedding breakfast room before, and I’m slightly nervous about it, as I recall the room being a kind of T shape, and I’m not sure how well that would be for the meal and the speeches. Still – we are due to go back next week to have another look around the rooms and be convinced, in the meantime the hotel has reserved all function rooms for us on that date until we have made up our minds.
Most of our Christmas and birthday presents have now arrived with the exception of my father’s Christmas present which is still winging its way to us through the post and is making me nervous as the delivery date is between 19-22 December and I cannot afford to receive it after the 22nd. 21st is almost too late, 22nd most certainly is the last possible moment.
