I guess I was feeling a little anti social bc I didn't want to mingle until the actual reception started...it was nice to just have the small group and relax for a bit.Discovery Streethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07530807140058397796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-102589044345501113.post-34112794338736624792010-07-17T05:49:21.543-06:002010-07-17T05:49:21.543-06:00Wow, I never would have thought this would be an i...Wow, I never would have thought this would be an issue. I can totally see why, especially if you are shy or uncomfortable in your dress or surroundings. I love Em's advice, totally spot on. I did the same thing Em did. I walked around thanking everyone for coming. Because I was sequestered away while guests were arriving, the cocktail hour was the first chance I got to thank them for sharing our day with us.<br /><br />I also think brides should consider what will make them feel comfortable and confident on that day. We had a relaxed outdoor BBQ that suited our personalities. Had we been in more formal settings, I might not have been as comfortable, which could have affected how I interacted with guests. I also would have felt more uncomfortable if my parents had invited a bunch of strangers. IDK. <br /><br />You did look stunning though!Hindsight Bridehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14513072541433711557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-102589044345501113.post-49563892868423178212010-07-16T13:15:44.946-06:002010-07-16T13:15:44.946-06:00Em!

We spent cocktail hr with our guests and I got a chance to talk to probably 60-70% of them. <br /><br />My advice to a bride reading this would be to work the room; don't expect people to come to you. Also, do it WITH your groom. Strength in numbers and all that jazz. We were able to hit up his side and my side with ease. We spent maybe 5 minutes with each little group of people and it worked out really well. I'm sorry you had a not-so-great experience with this :(Emhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14204887268153833182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-102589044345501113.post-4843429567982149052010-07-16T09:42:00.417-06:002010-07-16T09:42:00.417-06:00Thanks for props - as you can probably guess, we h...Thanks for props - as you can probably guess, we had a blast with these two!6:8 Photography (Kevan)http://www.68photography.canoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-102589044345501113.post-75825899695550439562010-07-15T09:06:59.879-06:002010-07-15T09:06:59.879-06:00Soooo amazing!Soooo amazing!Mrs. Wedding Crasherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10138463308135069948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-102589044345501113.post-51592760959768066672010-07-01T08:23:15.838-06:002010-07-01T08:23:15.838-06:00I love the chapel.

If you are trying to save money, ...Girls, girls.... If you are trying to save money, go right to the source. Everyone is within driving distance of a flower farm or great farmers market. If you aren't a bridzilla and are willing to to do a "flower dejeur" you can get incredible flowers, fresh and flawless...if you are willing to take what is locally available at the time. Flower farmers know more about flowers than florists. Some of them even specialize in weddings. www.ascfg.org is a start (Association of Specialty Cut Flower Growers) Good Luck!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-102589044345501113.post-17371305776701118342010-02-08T15:31:45.945-07:002010-02-08T15:31:45.945-07:00As always ladies, you are too generous!!
