Clam Gallas Palace

The palace where Leoš and I had our wedding finally opened to the public.  I really wanted to check out the other rooms of the palace, so we joined a tour with my mom and some other random people.  It was really cool to find out that Mozart and Beethoven performed in the palace.  There were so many rooms and they all looked so beautiful.  Once we entered the dance hall, where Leoš and I had our ceremony, I decided to ask how often weddings would happen in the palace.  The tour guide said that it didn't really happen that often and that's when I disclosed that we had our wedding in February.  The tour guide was shocked and told us that we were very lucky to have it there.  She said she remembered that the Town Hall for Prague 1 had an agreement with the palace to have a few weddings.  It was funny because we didn't have to pay for the wedding, but we had to pay for the tour.  It was worth it though.  The lady was very thorough and we learned a bit about the palace.  I also included a few embroidery pieces I have done.
