Wedding Update: We have a place for the reception!
The George R Brown Convention Center - Downtown Houston
Just a note to let everyone know that we've finally picked out a reception hall. We are working with the George R. Brown in Downtown Houston - managed to have a great friend at the convention center who is giving us a great deal on this space for the celebration after the wedding. Woohoo! Only concern - the reception is taking place in the George W. Bush Grand Ballroom on the 3rd floor... For those Democrats out there coming to the wedding - DON'T be discouraged! We are all going to be one big happy family for this one evening and the name of the ballroom has nothing to do with what's happening inside! And for those die hard Republicans out there - you'll love talking about our reception because you'll get to say George W. Bush's name over and over again! Haha... Pics below - they don't do it justice but it'll give you an idea.
Here's our gathering area - one of the balcony's overlooking the city. There is also an inside piece to this place just in case weather isn't so great... We'll have cash bars and plasma tv's set up for people to chill out and watch some football while waiting on us to finish picture taking.
This is the pre-reception area, just outside the ballroom...we'll have cocktail tables set up, drinks and finger foods passed during this time.
And here - here is the ballroom! Hope you all love it as much as Marc and I do...it's got that contemporary style that we have all over our house. It's just very....us! =)

I guess you know that everyone who is anyone will be wanting an invitation to the "Event of the Year." I think it would be appropriate to post the photo of Jenn and the Pres on the Blog and have a large blow-up at the reception. Also, since the old lady who lived across the street from you was the first to appear on your Blog wearing the "Bride's Grannie" shirt, you should also blow her up. HA HA

It is quite nice post about your place for the reception! Truly this location looks very spacious so one can invite a lot of guests to it. We have also started the preparations of our big day and will be booking one of the best Chicago wedding venues for this day.
