Planning Your Reception Part 2

In planning your reception there are a couple of secrets that I would like to share with you. Just a few things to add to the perfection of the event.

Clean Look

Hiding all your hardware and wires is the secret to a streamlined look-and you can even do it while adding to your decorations. Wrap or have wrapped the chains hanging your chandeliers use the same fabric that you are using elsewhere, disguising the out-of-place chains with a smoother look. To hide the ugly stage equipment place a row of boxwood trees at the edge of the dance floor and string them with lights. Not only will this disguise wires, but will even light up your dance floor a little more.

Sweetheart Table

Most of the time as a bride and groom you guys don't get a lot of time to talk or spend together at the reception. Consider what's known as a Sweetheart Table, a private table for the two of you. This way you can catch up with your new spouse, enjoy dinner without answering a dozen questions between mouthfuls and then get up and make the rounds without feeling rude for leaving other guests at the table.

Just a couple of new ideas that we have used and they do work great. Many more to come. Please keep the questions coming.
