I thought we had finally figured out a way to keep the deer out of our Wedding Venue. Deer love roses, geraniums, iris, sweet peas, snow peas, and peonies. Our pond area where we will be holding the wedding ceremonies is full of all these flowers; at least for now. A couple nights ago the [...]

Standing outside by our pond, checking out the views of Old Town Auburn, made me realize what an incredible venue this would be for a family or corporation for a fantastic 4th of July B-B-Que. We have ring side seats for the fireworks. Actually, the big deck off the family room was built expressly for [...]

Rehearsal Dinners don’t have to be formal and it’s often more fun to have a big B-B-Que with the ever popular baked beans and coleslaw and fruit or salad. Here in Old Town Auburn a B-B-Que fits nicely into the old west and gold mining theme of our town. Actually, B-B-Ques are a big hit [...]

We are planning the lighting that will be added to the lights we already have on the Victorian Mansion and the railing around the deck. We want the lighting by the deck and trees to have a romantic effect and with candles added to it, we will have the romantic ambience we are looking for.
Save wedding dollars by comparison shopping

Get quotes when shopping around for wedding flowers and other wedding related services. Let the vendors know you are shopping around and comparing prices. Vendors want your business and they are open to negotiation. More importantly, don’t mention the ‘W’ word. As soon as you say wedding, the price doubles. Shop around at several different [...]
