thanks ladies!!
I really like the candle/prayer idea. That sounds very appropriate and also very sweet.
I think it would make me feel a lot better about doing it on that day.
The Chapel was wondeful!! And I didn't take pics because they have a great 360 shot on their site. It covers everything. It was just perfect and the minister is quite nice himself. I'm very happy with this place and glad I came across it. (thanks to trusty google!
)
It would affect costs if we changed the date. We live near and are getting married in the French Quarter in New Olreans, LA USA. There are ALWAYS festivals and such going on. Especially in the spring! Mardi Gras starts it off then they have Jazz festival the french quarter fest and so forth and so on.
This is the safest date to pick so the French Quarter won't be filled with TOO many tourists. And during these festivals, it costs a LOT more to use the chapel and reception room.
I really just needed some *female* perspective on it, I guess. *shrugs* I'm not sure. But the date is going to stay the same. And I'll just have the minister say a prayer in his name.
Thanks to everyone for your imput!! You all made me feel a LOT better about this.
Good day~
