Choosing the wedding venue is (I think) the most critical part of the
wedding preparation (aside from choosing your partner). Every detail of the
wedding will depend on the look, aura and feel of the wedding venue. As for us,
we’ve decided to celebrate our wedding in Manila so that our family and friends
won’t have a hard time going to the venue. We were able to book our church and
reception last 12 March 2013 and 16 February 2013, respectively. We’ve
considered the following venues for our reception. (I attached quotations for
reference of Bride-To-Be(s). The price may change depending on the suppliers.)

Hello dear, thank you so much for this great list of wonderful venues. I wish I could have come across your post earlier when I was searching for best DC wedding venues for my wedding reception. But all in all the venue I hired for my wedding was also awesome.
