Say what?

The exciting news is that a reception venue finally wrote back to us.

(No, not Inn on the Blue Horizon. Vieques is so April 2005.)

The less exciting news is that I need an interpreter. Here's a copy of the email:


Dear XXXX,

Thanks for your inquiry. We need a little more information from you. Do youhave any idea how many people you will be having at the ceremony? Sat. May20th and Sat June 3rd are the dates we have available for a wedding where wewould close the restaurant to the public. The cost for this is $2500.toclose the inn. The price per person depends on the menu and is usuallyaround $150 In addition, you must buyout the rooms at the regular rate.forboth Friday and Saturday night. There are eight rooms ranging in price from$165 to $325. Depending on the number of people we could either do a sitdown dinner(65 people) or buffet/tray pass (100+ people).Another option is to have the entire ceremony including food on the westdeck. and we would still be open to the public in the dining room. The basicfee for that would be $1000 (the per person price of course would depend onthe menu) and you would have to rent for the weekend The Delft HavenResidence, The Chauffeur's Cottage and The Harbor's End Suite. A third option is to rent all three rooms upstairs and get married on thenew upstairs deck, the fee for this is $500.This could only accomodate about25-30 people, you could have a cocktail party/reception (price per persondepending on menu) for about an hour then come downstairs to the dining roomfor dinner.The last two options could be done on any weekend that the rooms areavailable.As you can see there are numerous possibilities, so it would be best tospeak with David at your convience.Hope I've given you enough information to get started. If you have anyquestions please feel free to call me at 866-xxx-xxxx.

Sincerely,
Reenie @ The Red Inn


Whatchoo talkin' bout Willis?

Did I miss something? These people all speak in hieroglyphics. I think somewhere in the middle of it all is something about a respectably priced Western deck, though, which will now serve as the setting for my internal paper-doll wedding show.
