Hi Brides!

Thanks for taking the time to read and give your opinion.

My fiance and I have been doing long distance for quite some time. We're on a tight budget for our wedding and honeymoon. What do you think if we cut the costs from doing a meal to just a dessert/ punch reception to save for a nicer honeymoon (not luxury, but just to not stay at a 3 star hotel lol)? We have a lot of guests traveling out of town, so that is where I feel troubled thinking about serving them only dessert and punch! Is it selfish to want a nicer honeymoon, and put the guests out of a nice meal? What would you do!

I don't think there is anything wrong with a dessert reception as long as the bride and groom are aware and understand that less people will travel in knowing it won't be a full reception, the ceremony & reception have to be much shorter so people aren't starving (so like 3 hours total or less for both), and it's stated on the invitations and website.
