Disappointment continues

Well, Adria and I had our meeting with our chosen venue to sign a contract for the date, sort of…
What transpired was pretty disappointing.
We showed up ready and excited to give them a date, plop down a deposit check and sign a contract, but unfortunately they would NOT sign a contract with us this past Sunday. Based on the date we were looking to chose (in 2011), they indicated they are currently only booking events through April of 2010.
It appears that local politics may be playing a part in our wedding planning now. Yes, it’s just our luck… with Kasim Reed as our new Mayor, the venue has reason (or fear) to believe that the beltline project, which runs right through their parking lot, may become a reality sooner than later. Additionally, they indicated that the recent weather conditions have caused some damage to the building (which they do not own), and it is in need of repair. It all adds up to a lot of question marks as to the future of the venue in this particular location.
So, just as alleged pending real estate deals with our former landlord surrounding the beltline & the Piedmont Park north woods reclamation project landed us out of our rental house in foreclosure & on the street last year, it now appears that we are without a wedding venue (for now).
It seems we are now pressed with some big questions… do we rush all the plans to move the wedding up, so that the bride gets the venue of her dreams? Do we hold tight to the date we originally wanted and see what plays out with the venue, and maybe seek alternatives? Or do we take this as a sign that this venue may not work out for us and move on to a different venue altogether?
