Wedding day details: setting up the reception

We were so happy with the way our reception turned out…unfortunately, due to the rain and ceremony switch, it ended up taking an hour to set up!  This meant less time for toasts, less time for dancing…it was all very complicated, and it was definitely the last thing we expected.  We decided to go with white tables and brown runners, and I was glad we went with that in the end, as it was a bright burst of light in the rain-darkened room.

Dave and I enjoyed our “bride” and “groom” labels all night long!

Did your reception go as planned, or were you thrown for a loop? Are any of you out there creating a plan B?

Much love,

-B

we heart your comments!

It’s so pretty and full of life, even in the rainy gloom! Or maybe it’s just your bright smiles. I’m out there creating a plan B in case there’s rain, so your pictures are a welcome encouragement.

Your bride and groom labels are SO PRETTY. Did you make those??
Also…your crepe paper display looks amazing! It looks just like the lilac crepe display at Anthropologie. Do you have a front view of it?
Beautiful!
