If you’re giving away your centerpieces, how are you doing it?
I’ve heard lots of different fun ways of giving away centerpieces at your wedding reception, and I’m just curious what other Offbeat Brides have come up with.
I think we want to keep it super simple… I don’t want to make people do a quiz, or a dance contest, or whatever. I think we might just have our MC announce at the end of the dinner, that whoever’s birthday is next at the table, get to take the centerpiece home.
I’m curious what everyone else is doing!
Skip the receiving line and do photos together instead
Ah, the receiving line. That thing that many couples sorta dread, where you stand there awkwardly smiling and hugging people and maybe feeling awkward (…or worse). We loved Mary & Craig’s solution…
How can I discourage over-drinking at my reception?
Anyone have any good tips on preventing guest over-drinking at our reception? A dry wedding isn’t what we’re aiming for, but we have a few family members who tend to party a little too hardy for our tastes. We’re still in the early stages of planning, but our bar will probably be at least partially open, since we have a lot of friends who are low on cash. Any ideas?
