1 /5 Lisa Courtois: The pastor of the church and person who manages for wedding venues stayed on my niece (the Bride) and I about cleaning up immediately after vacating any area. I missed a lot of the reception because I was hunting bridesmaid to come get their belongings during pictures. To their credit they were efficient in moving us into basement safely during tornado warnings 3 times but I doubt they were concerned about any of us, it was more fear of any liability if someone got hurt. Planning a wedding is very stressful the last thing a bride or family need is the venue taking your hard earned joy away!
