Should we host a reception after our micro-wedding? (+reception invitation wording examples!)
We got married this Saturday. It was a very small reception with mainly family. We were unable to invite all of our friends due to venue capacity being only 70 people and also due to our budget. Here we are on Monday back at work and so many people are upset both at me and my now-husband. Is it appropriate to have a small gathering at our house for all of our friends?
Have a bite of “first funnel cake” at this North Carolina state fair wedding
“By piggy backing on another event, we got food, entertainment, lighting, and endless photo ops, without having to do all the work.” OMG best way to throw a huge party ever! This North Carolina state fair wedding had everything you’d want: funnel cake, rides (like The Zipper!), and the most gorgeous light blue dress and white stole. Don’t miss all the food on sticks, you guys!
