One thing I really wanted to be able to do for our cocktail hour, is serve a grazing table/large charcuterie board that I made myself! My friends and I LOVE making charcuterie boards and as silly as it sounds, I take a good deal of pride in them for parties/girl's nights as it is. I thought it would be a really cool photography moment to create this board the morning of the wedding while my bridesmaids are having HMU done - just by myself with my pajamas on.
When we planned on having a large wedding, our venue didn't allow any outside food. So I wasn't going to be able to create my own grazing table. But with our new venue, they're more than okay with it! Yay!
My mom and fiancés mom think I won't want that pressure on me the day of the wedding - which I could see. But I think it may be a form of stress relief, honestly. I'm only having 75 people at our wedding so I can't imagine this table would take longer than an hour or so to make. I really enjoy making these and think it will be a really cool detail and staple for the reception that I made it myself.
Married brides, how stressful was your morning of? Will I regret this or should I go for it in hopes it eases any day-of stress I may have!?
