OFFICIAL NOW Jade Wedding Thread

[KerriCornell]

I brought all the petals with me.  I had ordered them from a website and to be honest I have no idea which one it was.  But I ordered A LOT of them.  Buy more than you think you need if using for decorating.  Just google "rose petals" and there will be a bunch of sites that pop up

Can anyone share whether or not it is necessary to bring along any decoration for the cocktail hour space? Thanks!

 I know you weren't asking me but this seller has 1000 piece petals for under $5

I wouldn't say it is necessary. The only thing that I had for the cocktail hour were paper straws with flags with our initials and the wedding date.

Wow! What a great deal! Thank you! Are you going to bring some down for table decor as well?

[Mlite83]

Yup that is the plan - just figuring out which colour(s)!

Can any brides share if they had any form of entertainment at their reception? I know someone earlier on the thread had fire dancers... is anyone else thinking of doing anything unique? My FI and I were contemplating fireworks but the prices seem quite high for the length of show. Not sure if its in the budget quite yet..

Hi ladies,

 

We are booked for Castaways for our reception and we are paying for the extra hour. Has anyone else done this and will they kick us out of the restaurant right at 11:00?

I had my reception at Castaways. I don't really remember this but apparently as soon as the reception was over they were kicking us. My brother in law had asked for some water as the reception was winding down and the waiter or manager or whoever told him no and refused to get him a drink. Like I said, I don't remember this and my brother in law can be a little dramatic, but I do think that they were basically kicked us out once the last song was played.

we had fireworks and it was worth every penny, everyone was so happy and surprised!! It really was beautiful!! The fire dancers they have a show every week, so depending on which day your wedding is, your guests might have already seen it.. I dont have pics of the fireworks now..will post when I get it:)

Oh btw, after u get the basic package for the fireworks..the add ons for cold fireworks at the ceremony are super cheap because you dont have to pay for the permits again...we had 6 cold ones when we kissed at ceremony..its really pretty!!
