    AHR TO plan a Timeline or No Timeline???

    in At Home Reception (AHR)

    Posted

    We are doing cocktail hour at 5:30, heavy appetizers for dinner at 6:30, i'm hoping to have a slideshow of pics and video clips from Mexico, cake cutting (not having a cake in mexico) and then we'll probably do our first dance and then dance the rest of the night.  no garter or bouquet toss (then again i'm not doing it for either reception). So it'll probably end around 1130-12.

    Is it too much?

    We are planning to get legally married here right before we leave for Mexico. We'll invite our parents and siblings.  I plan on wearing my bridal shower dress and we are not exchanging rings. I pretty much want to forget that day ever happened!  Then we will have our wedding in Mexico and celebrate that day forever. And a month later we are having a big AHR. I didn't want anything crazy, but his parents are into 'nice' things and were against mexico to begin with.. so I feel I'm compromising and catering to them for the AHR since my family and I are strong supporters of the destination wedding.  So it is what it is! 

    Guestbook idea for small guest count?

    Update to this idea... my fiance is a photographer on the side, so we are going to make a book of the pictures he takes in Mexico during our wedding week, and make a large picture book for our guests to sign at the AHR.  So excited that the pictures will be our own and it's something we'll want to look at for the rest of our lives!

I might still do postcards for our mexico wedding and then find a book down there and use it for our home reception.  depending on the book, maybe people will be able to sign anywhere in the book since there will be more room for all of them. how unique!

    We found a really nice coffee table book with beautiful pictures of Mexican architecture and homes. We had everyone sign the inside cover. Now we can keep it out all the time and it doesn't look "wedding-y."

    When I deliver BD books that's how it works.  That way I also get to capture his awesome reaction to the present!  So usually I will go over there right before he starts getting ready.  I'll pull him out on the balcony by himself and shut the drapes.  That way nobody can see him or hear his reactions.  I just say that I need some portraits.  Then i will hand him the book and take pictures.  It's super fun!
