| - Eclectic wedding venue, made famous by the magic of television!
----------
As soon as we saw this place on an episode of "4 weddings," we were excited to come here for a friend's wedding.
Interesting, eclectic place for a wedding venue -- located at the end of a dead-end street, with a gravel parking area to boot, but nevertheless it certainly had a unique charm.
The central courtyard had an awesome fountain, which provided a soothing "babbling brook" background to the wedding ceremony.
The bar area was uniquely decorated to look as rustic as possible (with random knickknacks such as a "siempre coca cola" sign, and a sign that warns you to "be aware of poker players and loose women." A frozen margarita machine and various well liquors round out the selection.
I wasn't a big fan of the inner tree-lined courtyard - it literally smelled moldy
The bathroom all the way at front of property, which meant walking outside during a torrential downpour that evening.
The food was from one of three authorized caterers. Although the roast pig was tender and delicious, the chicken breast was dry (as expected), and strangely, they served potsticker shooters at the end, which tasted rather bland.
Certainly more interesting than your typical hotel banquet hall!
