I could create a proposal quote for your review and consideration if you provide me with expected guest count, wedding package selection, and wedding date. We will finalize Proposal Quote with Wedding Package, Guest Count, Menu Selections, Entree Quantities, and Bar Package two weeks before the wedding celebration when RSVP's are known.
I have attached copies of the three 1888 Wedding Packages for your review and a comparison chart as well. You only have to coordinate Flowers, Photographer, Officiant, and DJ and we have Preferred Vendors that can help you with that. Everything else is covered under the 1888 Barn wedding packages....
