Cultural Wedding. In need of IDEAS!!!! Hi Ladies,

SKAYG

I'm Costa Rican and FH is 1/2 Dominican and 1/2 Puerto Rican, we have decided to include our culture in the wedding. I was thinking that instead of table #s I can have post cards from different places in Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico & Costa Rica. I was also thinking that I can have a candy buffet table with sweets from those 3 countries. I don't know how else to incorporate more stuff. Oh & btw my theme is all over the place, is chic-lay-back-rustic-vintage-cultural theme.

IN DIRE NEED OF HELP

I've attached some pics to get an idea

no pics there.

it's ok to include your cultures in your wedding but it's still your wedding, not a celebration for countries so keep it subtle and vary it. perhaps vary the menu with some items-for example-fried plantains from PR during cocktail hour and some other things form DR and CR. i've been to all 3 but am having trouble remembering anything special from DR or CR.
i think the candy buffet table would be a great idea if the candy from the 3 countries is there.
is tehre any way that you can also incorporate it into a dessert platter for each table during when the cake is served? like pastries from all 3 places?

as for the post cards as table #s-meh-i find tables that donthave a corresponding # to be REALLY irritating becuse they're hard to find. you have to walk around and around looking for it. if you want to do the post cards consider doing a # on them as well like Table 1 Puerto Plata

good luck and sounds fun!!
