What a gorgeous wedding venue in Tuscaloosa, Alabama! I'm jealous of all the green. At Talula Mesa Glamping in Austin, TX, we don't get much greenery. But we do have lots of scenic hill country and bluebonnets, so I can't complain.
I found you at Didi's, weddingvenueowners.com, and just loveyour beautiful wedding venue. Hi!
