So my super awesome venue provides several canoes. 2 for using the large pond and 1 is recommended as a gift display.
I saw this picture of drinks displayed in a canoe and loved it! It might be silly, but I'm nervous about asking the venue about using it this way. I'm not sure if it would be bad for the canoe. And there is a wedding the day after ours; I wouldn't want them to be left with a soggy canoe if they are using it as a gift display.
FH thinks using a canoe for a beverage display is silly. He thinks we should use coolers. (not attractive at all!)
The cons that I see are:
* guests having to bend over to get drinks
* a lot of ice required
* ice might melt too quickly (need it for 5 hours in 70-85 degree weather)
Although cute, the photo (actual photo from our venue) the alternative to the gift table might not work well for us. We are only having 45 guests, so it might look pathetically empty.
What are your opinions and thoughts?
