What is your best advice for a stand-up cocktail wedding reception?
We would like to do something “unique” for our wedding, and are considering a stand-up reception. The ceremony would be in the evening with the stand-up cocktail/hors d’oeurves reception to follow.
What works really well with these types of parties? Do you know of any bride/wedding blogs that document this kind of reception?
frankie i’m assuming you mean stand up (aka dinner stations) versus a sit down served meal or a buffet (aka chow line). if that is the case — FUN! we did one the other day and while there were tables and chairs there were also sofa’s, love seats and other type of “comfy” seats. you stil have to have seating for people but it doesn’t have to be bland and boring. have stations that reflect your relafionship – for example a sushi station or argentinian or chinese or polish or soul food or — whatever floats your boat! if you both like to travel incorporate that. if you’re going some where funky on your honeymoon incorporate that! we did one that was really formal – chargers, full black tie and yet…. and yet the app course were ribs & wings – finger smacking ribs & wings because that was their first blind date!
make it about you two and have fun!!!
