Karl Strauss Brewery for a Wedding?

So I am working on getting married next year sometime and the Fiance' and I are trying to figure out where we want to have it.

She wants a garden type place and we saw the Karl Strauss Brewery does weddings.

Have any of you been to their brewery? I looked on their website and it looks really nice.

We are planning on about 150 people. They have plenty of room there.

Here's a link for you.

Just wanted to get some opinions on the place and the price.

For the one we want its $55 a person and that includes...
Linens
Tables
Chairs
Silverware
China
Wedding cake provided by San Diego’s leading Bakeries
Disc Jockey
Custom Menus
Complimentary Heaters
Complimentary Parking Area
On Site Friendly Professional Staff to help coordinate your event

Plus there is a $650 Ceremony Fee.



So yea, what are some of your thoughts on this place...
:looney:

Sound's great if Johnson Valley is all booked up and you can't get out of it.

haha, I would love to do that, but she wants a garden adn I want beer, lol

damn that shit sounds expensive as XXXX.

If you were in Orange County, I would suggest Turnip Rose. Very beautiful garden areas and awesome food.

yea and thats just the wedding. Add up the cost of a ring and years of shopping.

Ring is already bought, we have been engaged for almost 3 years already, lol.

Her Parents are paying for the majority of the wedding, and she already picked out the dress.

We just gotta pick out the date which is the hard part, haha.


We weren't planning on spending this much, but it is perfect for us esp the food choices.

So its just a matter of figuring out when and saving what we can...

being married is expensive but worth it. at least thats what my wife keeps telling me. :doh:

lol, I looked at the STONE site, but I don't think they have the setup for something like this...

LMFAO!!!! And you keep believing him?!?!? :roflmao::roflmao::roflmao:

My wife wanted an outdoor wedding on the beach, we looked around, turnip rose was expensive, Dana point was expensive, everywhere we looked was expensive. We took a little trip up to Ventura for a get away weekend and ended up going to the santa barbara zoo while we were up there. Turns out they did weddings, We got married at the Santa Barbara zoo. It was bitchin, almost on the beach, outdoor, and the perfect weather. It was alot cheaper than anywhere close to us, well worth the 2+ hour drive.
