Hi ladies, first off thank you so much for your replies on my previous post on venue giving us the runaround.

He was simply swamped with appts but we did end up seeing an event planner that works there. He gave my FH the ballpark figure. I did not attend this meeting as FH wanted to speak with them alone to "surprise me" on a final wedding date! Well as nice as that was now I have NO idea what is included in it or not! I am so overwhelmed. I want to make sure the things that were included in our previous appt will be included in this one but FH said that nothing was discussed in that way. Needless to say the next appt I will be attending even if FH wants to surprise me.

So anyway, they gave us October and November 2009 dates.
Fridays seems to fit in our budget! They did say Friday's are the new Saturdays. FH isn't budging to go look at other venues. He wants this ONE! Frustrating! We're meeting with our wedding planner this week and hopefully one more appt with the venue and it will be BOOKED! I was hoping to be a September 2009 bride but the price did not include that.

Anyway thanks ladies for your help/suggestions/advice! You are all great!

I think it's great your FH wants to be involved in the planning...mine has been too and its been very helpful.  But I could never have an important detail like the date left to surprise.  That would make me crazy.  I would say if you have questions for the venue, write them down so you don't forget to ask them.  That's my only advice.  I still email my venue every so often with another set of questions.
