Hey guys,
I am well into the planning and only really have the 'little things' left to do. But I keep getting this feeling that I haven't done enough for the reception. I keep thinking that the decor isn't enough.
I am wondering if there is something I can add, i dont want things to be overberring, but I dont want the hall to be blah either. Anyway, here is what im doing for the reception, please feel free to give me some (cheap) ideas to add to jazz it up a bit.
oh, and fyi our colours are royal blue black and white
Tables: We are going with white table cloths and a royal blue table runner.
Centrepieces (its not spelt wrong im Canadian :P): We are getting medium height vases and putting some royal blue and black acrylic 'glass' pieces with a white calla lilly in water with the floating candles. We are also going to have blue and white flower petals scattered on the table.
Escort cards: These will be placed where the guest is sitting, We have named our tables after our favourite bands and on the inside of the card will be a random fact about the band
Gift Table: We are going fairly simple with this, a black or blue (haven't decided yet table cloth and then just have a 'money box' which will be two boxes wrapped as presents to match our colours
Cake Table: will feature none other than... the cake! and I was thinking of putting some of our engagement pictures in basic frames, possibly some flower petals as well.
Chairs: are going to be black with a royal blue sash
So that's about it, nothing really too fancy, suggestions please!
Also, im not too crafy so i would prefer to leave the DIY out unless its simple. I was thinking of including a larger card with the table names and maybe putting the lyrics to our favourite songs by the band... too much?
HELP PLEASE. and thank you
