One of my dads friends that he works with just bought a house for his brother in Manassas (about 35 min. away) and he offered it up for the wedding. It has a HUGE property. Were talking HUGE. There is a pond and a field and a deck with a pool. It's pretty awesome. The only thing is that they are still closing on it and it hasn't been worked on in months and needs a lot of work. Like a lot. So first let me share some pictures and then Ill list some pros and cons.
love these arches
I would want to be married out there
Pros
No rental fee
Ample set up and take down time
Free creative range
Easily holds 150 people
Arches
Pond and field
Cons
It's kinda out in the country so transportation to hotels might be an issue
It needs a lot of work and we aren't sure that it will be done in time
If it rains we will need to tent it and that would call for a mighty large tent
We would be responsible for everything ie catering, tables, linens, etc
Im so up in there air. I thought it was going to be for sure between these two venues but the more I think about it the more I think I need to keep looking. My mission this month is to pick two or three more locations and visit them. Hopefully by the end of the month we will have one set in stone.
On the way home we stopped and had breakfast at IHOP. Yum
And so tomorrow starts another week hope you all has a great weekend!
Did I mention how much I love your votes?

i love it! but i do agree that transportation may be a problem. how many people are going to be invited?
Looks like an awesome place, but I can understand all of those concerns. I think looking at a few more places and then narrowing it down sounds like a good plan.
Thats a beautiful place for a wedding! Congrats on your wedding ha I am a new reader.
