Ice sculptures a thing of the past?

Is it just me or are ice sculptures outdated? I have a friend offering to have an ice sculpture made for our wedding. I'm not sure I want to take them up on this offer.

Re: Ice sculptures a thing of the past?

  • not sure.. We had one in 2008.. It was also a martini luge and it was a big hit..  But then again my family is not really hip on the lastest trends so I might have gotten lucky they did not know it was outdated..






    What differentiates an average host and a great host is anticipating unexpressed needs and wants of their guests.  Just because the want/need is not expressed, doesn't mean it wouldn't be appreciated. 
  • No all the receptions I have been looking at offer ice sculptures they are beautiful
  • They are very common here in NJ.  Every reception venue we looked at offered it as part of the basic package.

    I had one (Wedding was 4 months ago), but it was freebie that our venue threw in for us at the last minute. It was a nice touch, but I never would have paid for one.

  • Ditto Meg, cause that's a lot of money for a glorified ice cube.

    Is you friend offering to do it for free as your wedding present?  If so, be gracious and take him/her up on it. You will have beautiful wedding photos.
