We too went with process of elimination. We came up with a list of things/qualities that the locations HAD to have and went from there.
Our list was:
1. Indoors (we want a Feb/Mar wedding and have wicked bad luck with FL weather
and didn't want to worry about outdoor spots)
2. Capacity for approx 115 people.
3. Something unique and very Disney (someplace that you HAVE to go to Disney for).
4. Sit down dinner reception.
5. Ability to pick whatever menu choices we'd like.
6. Space for dancing.
So for the ceremony the only location that fit was the WP.
For the reception the choices that fit were: AAR, China, and LS. China just didn't do anything for us, and we wanted both AAR and LS. So we decided on LS for the rehearsal luncheon/brunch, and AAR for the reception.
So in the end it will be a little more expensive with our choices, but it is the wedding that we both want and will be happy with for years to come.
HTH!
