So we have provisionally booked our venue which we love and I took the mothers to see it. Its a wedding barn and it wasn't dressed for a wedding and my mum was quite negative about it. Now I'm having doubtful thoughts about it.
You should be able to contact the venue and ask to visit when it is dressed for a wedding (they may quickly decorate it as an 'example') keep looking at the wedding pictures of the venue and show them to your mum, hopefully this will put but your mind and hers at ease
Hi Alex I agree with Amy :)
You love it and that is all that matters - you need to remember not everyone has the same tastes and no matter how hard you try you cannot please everybody, so do what makes you happy! Some people do find it hard to imagine what it will look like decorated, like the other comments looking at pictures of it decorated or visiting on the day of an actual wedding to see the set up can help a lot. Barn weddings are lovely, I have been to a few :)
Thanks Brides! Going again tomorrow when its dressed so hoping for a better response this time! X
In having a cow shed and it will look amazing with all the decorations
