Has anyone else done a dinner-party style reception? We're thinking of reserving a private dining room at a local restaurant and just doing dinner and then maybe going to a local bar later on as a sort of after party. It's going to be less than 40 people, mostly family, and we're not planning on having dancing or any of the tosses- just dinner and cake.
Has anyone been to/hosted a wedding like this? Did people react okay or were they confused by it?
