DP and I have had the idea of having our wedding reception in my grandfathers garden. We would hire marquee and would probably do buffet and hog roast/ barbecue. The reasoning behind the garden party is that we want a fairly intimate wedding. 60guests max. The venues that we have seen around here are huge and I don't like the idea of a big wedding.
My grandfather lives in an old barn conversion with plenty of land.
I want to keep the wedding fairly frugal as we are saving to buy another house as we are renting ours out and we are currently living with MIL.
We have our hearts set on getting married in the church down the road from the reception venue.
Has anyone done this before and how much did it cost?
