Hey LV Knotties!
I am already booked at the IP SilverySky Chapel for my ceremony, but I am utterly TORN APART when it comes to my in-suite reception. I know, I'm so indecisive! GOD!
I have booked the Vista Suite at the MB already, but the Cosmopolitan keeps calling my name. I am a BLING WH*RE. I feel like I'm cheating on my FI with the Chandelier Bar. The view and the outside factor of the wraparound terrace suite make me have an organism (intentional typo).
We are doing the DD bus from the ceremony to the ______(reception).
It's between a private room at Wicked Spoon buffet and an in-suite cocktail reception in the wraparound terrace (we will book the adjoining one bedroom terrace suite as well).
OR
Heavy apps by Masterpiece Catering at the Vista Suite at MB.
We "expect" about 42 guests, including 4 kids who will be fully accounted for.
Food is important to my man, bling and a fun party atmosphere is most important to me, and music is important to us both. Not just something "everyone else" would do.
I REALLY am desperate for advice at this point. If ONLY the Cosmo had a suite to fit more people AS WELL as the wraparound terrace.
Love, Krista.

You don't need to send invites this early. You can send STDs at 6-9 months out, but they're not required (you can send them at 4 months if you want). You can wait until 8 weeks out to send your invites.
ANACO9, you are one of my inspirations on the board...FYI...
The Cosmo told me that of we wanted to entertain 30-35 people, we would need to book the adjoining One Bedroom Terrace suite as well. We were already planning on doing that for the kids.
So far my itinerary reads: 2 hour hosted cocktail strip tour on the DD bus followed by 2 hour private room dining at the Wicked Spoon..(That's 4 hours right there). Then it says "Following dinner, guests are welcome to join us for cocktails and music in our suite." So basically people will be on their own after dinner and can choose to join us or not, thus not putting so much emphasis on the suite being the reception. I think 4 hours is plenty for a reception, so the suite will just be a little extra.
Thoughts?
