Small and Sweet

My latest idea has been to do the wedding at Larry's parents house in Hollywood. They live in hills by the Hollywood sign and have a killer view of the city all the way to Santa Monica.  On a clear day you can see the ocean.  It is really breathtaking.



The house is actually a really neat tri-level house filled with his mom's art work and beautiful furnishings.

If we did this option the ceremony would be very small and intimate and then we would gather maybe for a picnic at the Griffith Observatory or a formal reception at the Autry Natural Center all within a 10-15 minute drive of the house.

--I like the picnic idea (which I borrowed from my sister), we would save by not having to pay any venue fees and could splurge on cute picnic baskets full of goodies for our guests (which could double as wedding favors).  

Realistically I think this is just a cute idea...
