Casual outdoor biker wedding

Sarah, on January 23, 2017 at 7:55 AM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 17

My man and I are having a casual outdoor bike your wedding complete with leather and lace more than likely Harley Davidson themed, any thoughts or ideas? Would like to keep it small and intimate and then have a slightly bigger reception

    With the exception of the best man who is like a brother to the groom it will be immediate family only at the ceremony. And the reception will be held on a mutual friend's property... but then I've also considered having the ceremony and the reception on this mutual friends property… But as far as the bridal party in the groomsmen it will just be immediate family

    I can't wait to see pictures! Are you wearing lace with a leather jacket? So cool.

    I would still make sure your ceremony stays under 15-20 people. It can look really rude otherwise.

    Also, a tiered reception is when you invite some guests to one part of the event and not to the other. This tends to look really gift grabby and can upset a lot of people. As long as you keep the ceremony at a very small number, you should be fine but possibly prepare for hurt feelings.

    Actually I'll probably just wear leather jacket instead of the cut because it's gonna be pretty cool in September on the bike

    Sounds interesting! You should post a BAM after the wedding!

    If you are going to do a split guest list like that (only some are coming to the ceremony) then make it immediate family only, with the exception of your FH's best man.

    Also! That picture would make a great Avatar! Avatars help us get to know you better. There are a ton of double ring avatars and it's very hard to keep ya'll straight.

    Yes the ceremony itself will be immediate family only with you exception of FH's best man.

    As far as the avatar I thought I did have one on there…

    And what is a BAM???

    If it is outdoors, I would talk to rental companies about getting a tent for inclement weather. Also rent port a potties (I was told 1 for every 25 guests) as your mutual friend probably does not have enough facilities for everyone.

    This is just one of the options that I might wear with my biker boots and my leather jacket
