Take a bow, that is nice!
You do all the little things, looks like you put a ton of thought into all of this. The sidewalk circling the tree is a nice touch as well.

I still say you have a "knack" with putting the pieces in the right places.
Thanks everyone. My sidewalk contractor started to run string lines for forms around the outside of the tree. I had him circle it despite his disagreement. He was worried about root damage long term. I ran some conduit under the sidewalk for power and told him if we ever start to see signs of damage the tree could be cut and would make a nice place for a fountain.
I made a trip to Oklahoma yesterday to pickup all of the stone veneer for the outside of the building. I plan to start stonework this weekend. Getting the stone done should really tie everything together on the outside. Today's plan is to start trimming out all of the doors for the bridal suite upstairs.

Why Oklahoma? Better prices or just the only place to get the type of stone that you wanted?
Both. Same stone I used on the wedding patio columns. Was able to pick it up direct from the supplier doing the cutting there. Real stone veneer here after going through a couple of middle men runs anywhere from $9-12 sq/ft. Cost going direct was $4.50 sq/ft.

What city? I'm not currently looking for stone, but with what it costs here in Tyler, I've wondered if it was worthwhile driving up to Oklahoma and finding out where it comes from and buying it direct. At half the price, that would make it more then worthwhile!!!
Finished the stonework and set the granite on the side area of the bar we added last night. Starting to wrap up a lot of the little items that needed finished now.
