Hobbies And Pastimes

Every couple wants their wedding day to be a special day to remember. That is why people tend to go all-out to make the occasion so grand. There are the major aspects of the wedding such as the dress, venue, music, food, and flowers that will all make the wedding memorable, but it is often the smaller details that can make a wedding truly spectacular.

At your chosen reception venue, your coordinator will discuss color schemes with you for your tables. Unless you have a color in mind, they will often advise you go with either white or cream tablecloths and napkins, as these are neutral colors. Most brides today do have an idea for their own color schemes. It may be possible that the venue may supply the bride's color, but in the event that that is not possible, table linen can be rented in all shades from a seperate source. By ensuring that the tablecloths and napkins match, you will create a definite air of elegance to the reception hall. One thing that most people wouldn't notice, but will if it is there, is to add chair covers. They can be in either a matching or complimentary color and will definitely tie in the whole room in with the rest of the wedding color scheme.

If it is a traditional wedding, then most likely there will be water goblets on every table. Consider adding a lemon wheel to each glass. This is not an expensive addition, but it looks like it is. Along the same lines, consider adding a strawberry to all glasses for the champagne toast. This costs slightly more than the lemon wheel but it looks and tastes beautiful. Guests will be impressed with the amount of thought put into the small details of the wedding planning.

The food has to be the best part of the wedding reception. Everybody looks forward to savoring the delicious delights that grace the tables. Welcome your guests with a pre dinner cocktail hour. Usually you will find a variety of spirits and mixers served but why not greet the guests with a margarita fountain. A small pasta station is becoming quite a popular addition to the cocktail hour. A small table with just a couple of different pastas and sauces is a great way to keep hunger pangs at bay before the wedding feast. Once the main meal is over, rather than serving individual cofees, consider a coffee buffet with different types of coffee on offer. Again these are not too expensive items to add, but your guests will remember them.

To create a totally chic look for your wedding set the stage with any or all of the special extras. You may even have other ideas that will set your wedding apart from all the others.
