So an earlier post (too much cake?) got me to thinking. What personal touches have you put into your wedding? What is your one unique spin that you have added? How will you make your wedding stand out from the rest?
(I know some folks can be touchy about sharing this type of info but come on ya'll we damn near family now. LOL)
I will go first. (I just copied what I typed earlier into the other post)
So here is what I am doing because a lot of my family doesn't like cake. Also his family and my family have not met each other. I needed something to get people to get up and mingle after dinner. FI and I are having a small wedding cake. Two tiers or three tops. 1 to take home and 1 to cut.
Instead of doing numbers on the tables there will be a different dessert at each table. I have 14 tables so instead of table 1 it will be red velvet cake table, chocolate chip cookie table, peanut patties table (FI favorite), chocolate covered strawberries table, peach cobbler table and so on and so on. You could easily do this with different flavor cakes.
The bonus is It will also make people get up to go get the dessert they want from another table. This will cause folks to mingle as they get the dessert they want. Since I am doing the seating chart the older people who have a hard time getting around will be seated at the table with the dessert I know they like. I for sure will have to go cartons available so nothing is left behind. I know it sounds like a lot of desserts but I know my people and it will all be gone. Everyone that I have told I am doing this is so excited about the idea and has told me what table they want to sit at.
