Happy Birthday Polly

So looks like we've nailed down a venue - we just have to go over the contract and make sure that all the "t's" are dotted and the "i's" are crossed. Based on a number of reasons, (size, cost, friendliness, proximity) we've decided to go with the Gladstone. I know that many of you, well some of you, well...Nicole, have had issues with the Gladstone in the past. I can only promise you that there will be less people at our wedding than at CanZine, and that the renovations that they've done since NxNE (nevermind the last CanZine) are impressive and beautiful. We also made a point of making sure that we will have access to and control of the AC for the room and they've assured us that the not-so-nice drapes will be replace by the time of the wedding.

And with the venue selection comes the date. We managed to avoid August for P&S, have it before September so that SJ doesn't have to fly in from the east coast (assuming she's home for the summer) and late enough that it's a couple of months after Squirrel and Eh Steve!'s wedding. Unfortunately that means that we're getting married on Pol's birthday. We still have to make with the ink, and we'll be sending out save the date cards, but if you're paranoid about long range booking the date is (tentatively) July 15th.
