Beth and I are planning to have a civil union now that they're legal. We need to find a
site. We should probably have looked sooner, but we were a little afraid of putting down an deposit and then the law not going through at the last minute.

At any rate, now we need to find a site. We've made a few calls, and not had a lot of luck so far. I'm hoping that perhaps some of my friends out there can suggest sites that we haven't thought of. These are our priorities:

1. Capacity of 200 people or more.

(no, we're probably not actually going to have that many, but we want elbow room, and space to dance without having to take down all the tables.)

2. A kitchen they will rent without requiring a professional caterer.

3. Available on a Saturday, ideally this spring before the summer event season gets going.

Those are the non-negotiable ones. (number 3 might become negotiable if we get desperate).

4. A liquor license and bartender who can provide a cash bar for us.

5. Manchester would be nice, but we're willing to look at stuff within 40 miles or so of
Manchester.

Thanks for any suggestions you have to offer,
