1. We are not having bubbles, or rose petals, or birdseed, or sparklers, or anything else you "make an exit" with. We aren't changing clothes and the entire event is outdoors so everyone will see the limo coming to pick us up. My concern is how do we "make our exit" without just seeing the limo and think, "oh, now we've gotta go" and run over to it?
2. Did anyone make their own set-up chart for the ceremony and/or reception? We need to plan how it will be set up and the venue will do it accordingly. For the ceremony, I have a pretty good idea how to set it up. The reception, however, will mix the venues round tables (16) with the additional rectangular tables we are renting (11). The rental place was out of round. I like symmetry and I just can't figure out how to do it, plus add in 2 rectangular food buffets and a way to "highlight" the cake table. The area is pretty open so it's a blank slate. I just can't get my brain to come up with a nice configuration. Has anyone seen a planning tutorial to help with that?
