Today I signed and faxed in the room block confirmations; we have 15 King rooms and 10 Double rooms, in addition to our Suite. Each guest room is $135 + tax a night and we have them on hold for both Friday and Saturday night. Individuals can book their room at https://www.myfidelio.net/webui/AvailabilitySearch.aspx?chain=STCR&property=USGAL and say they are with the Matt/Goodwin Wedding to get our pricing.

Bob?

Who would have imagined that Chris has a friend who can do our ceremony? Yep Bob Burgess has semi confirmed he can legally marry us in Galena. We happened to be chatting about our big day over breakfast and  he said he had his license, we thought he was joking but no. Again, this will be our special wedding with so many unexpected things...

3 years ago...

‎3 years ago on this date, September 12th 2009, Chris Goodwin and I met for dinner at the Village Tavern, eat some ice cream at Culvers and eventually played a never ending game of Scrabble. Now a year from this date, September 12th 2012, we will be getting married...

Chair Covers

So I know I said I didn't want all the formal stuff of a wedding however while Googling images of the various rooms offered at the Stoney Creek Inn, I came across a place that rented chair covers to them; $2.50 a cover with a free slash. Needless to say, I emailed them to see what the actual quite would be. Below is a picture of the Stoney Creek Inn chairs with their rental covers; I would do Black with a white slash of course.

Room Offerings

After looking over the Room Block contract from Stoney Creek Inn, I emailed Dena with some questions. In addition to that, I created a one page visual document with examples of all the room offering styles and pricing since they do have a variety of options. Once Dena gets back to me, I will send her my document to make sure all the descriptions and images are correct so that I can start sending it out to guests to get an estimate on what they would like.

Blocks of Rooms

So I emailed Dena at Stoney Creek Inn to start setting up the blocks of rooms since I have not done that yet. The prices for this year, though they will most likely raise a little bit for next year, are as follows:

Standard  King/Standard Double bedded rooms run $135+tax per night.
King Suites with Whirlpool/Fireplaces and the rate would be $207+tax.
AAA & AARP can be applied at check in also.

The room in the picture is what Chris and I like, which is a Suite...
