Discussions from Wedding Reception

Hi everyone! My FH and I have officially decided on doing a dessert bar. We are doing it through a local grocery store baker so they will not be able to help us much with deciding on quantities. So...

How late was your venue open for your reception? I've looked at a few venues. two I really like but one closes at 10pm. My family, well we are party animals (Open bar? Of Course!) so is 10pm a normal...

So I plan on having an unplugged ceremony. For the reception obviously people will be free to take photos( we will even have a wedding hashtag where they can post them.) My thing is I would prefer...

Hello everyone, I just wanted to know if I'm the only one frustrated with trying to do a seating chart?! I have tried so many times to do it & at this point I think that I'm just gonna have a few...

I'm planning a wedding for this upcoming August in Brooklyn, NYC. We are planning for about 100 people, 110 max and we're trying to save as much money as we can without cheaping out. Our vibe is...

I'm a complete clutz and I don't want to spill anything on my wedding dress so I figured we'd have fancy bibs. The guests would even have one too to use and keep. I figured we could do southern...

Hi Guys! So we are getting married at the end of the month, and as far as desserts go we have opted out of a cake. We will have a donut wall, but I feel like we need something else- preferably...

Hi! I’m currently trying to figure out our first dance song. What is yours? I need some ideas!

Has anyone let their bridal party choose their entrance songs? If not, how did you choose which song for each pair or did you just play one song for all of them then a separate song for the bride...

How is everyone doing the introductions? I’d rather not do them at all, but FH wants to. He wants to do different songs for each groomsman, but with 7 guys it just feels like too much song switching...

Hello ladies! I've been working on my reception detail cards and am having a tough time with how to lay it out. It's in a different location than the ceremony itself and I would like to detail that...

What have you been served as a guest that was great or just so so bordering on bad? What did/you serve that you are hoping guests love and remember?

So we are having 60 guests at our wedding with a few I'm sure will RSVP no, and maybe 2/3 of the guests drink. Problem is FH and I are not drinkers, we just never really got into that. I have asked...

I’m getting married this November, and we are having probably 120-130ish (max) guests, including ourselves, and it will be a buffet for dinner. I didn’t want to mess with a seating chart, but now I’m...

Hi everyone, I just saw a post on FB from another bride that they were given a surprise bill for a corkage fee that wasn't in their contract. So I looked it up and saw that it basically means it's a...

I wasn't finding anything about this and I know it sounds so simple but my brain is fried when it comes to this. I am having my guests silverware packaged up to help lessen the spread of covid. I am...

Hello all!! I need your opinion on a Thursday night wedding, it would be the week of labor day weekend. I'm unsure but my fiance doesn't think it's a big deal. Help!! Loll

Hi all! We set our big day for September 16th 2022! We’re trying to figure out what we want for our first dance song. We have one in mind but we’d like to have it in an acoustic style and we’ve looked...

So we are having a Caterer for dinner, but not for appetizers. What did you have for appetizers and will it look bad to have plastic plates and cups for appetizers? Of course nice looking ones. Anyone...

Happy Friday!! After a smaller, intimate ceremony in March, my husband and I will FINALLYYYY get to have our reception with family and friends coming up in March of 2022. We live in New Jersey and...
