Wedding Updates #2

Food/Drink

We just want to say thanks to everyone that has offered to bring a dish or a drink. We have everything covered, and it makes us feel very loved to know we have family members like you guys!

Just a reminder you don't have to get the food/drinks to us before the wedding day. Since the reception and the ceremony are at the same place you'll be able to drop off your dish on the way to the chapel. There will be someone to take the food from you- most likely Shaun or one of the other groomsmen. Otherwise there will be a women named Jodi and her daughter who will be taking it from you. From there they'll either direct you were to place it, or they'll take care of it for you.

Bar

We have changed the cash bar to an open bar. There will be an open bar for the entire reception (5-10). I don't think alcohol will be served in between the ceremony and reception, but we'll have lemonade, tea, water, and pop then.

Between Ceremony/Reception

There will be appetizers/horderves for the guests in between the ceremony/reception in the reception hall. There will be about an hour/ hour and a half in between. Shaun, me, the bridal party, and the parents will be taking pictures in the meantime. Of course if you'd like to get a picture with us before the reception feel free to crash the photoshoot! We'll join you after we're done :)

Rehearsal Dinner

For those who are in the wedding just a reminder the rehearsal dinner is the 25th at 6pm. There will be dinner and decoration after. You don't have to stay to help decorate the church/hall (unless you're bridesmaids/groomsmen).

Wedding is three weeks away! Hope everyone is excited as we are!

If you have any other questions feel free to contact one of us.

Updates

Food

Most of the food is covered, because we have awesome friends and family. Seriously you guys have been incredibly helpful, and we're extremely appreciative of it. There are still some things Shaun and I could use if anyone else would like to help:

• Corn
• Green Beans
• Rolls
• Soda
• Lemonade and/or Punch 

There will be a cash bar. I'll have the prices in the next update.

Note: if you're bringing food I would suggest bringing it in a dish/container you either don't need back or don't need back right away.  Also you won't have to worry about getting the food to us ahead of time. Since the reception and ceremony are at the same location, we'll have someone in the reception building to take the food from you and store it during the ceremony.

Tables/Catering Containers

The package we get with our venue only comes with one rectangle table, and the rest are round tables that everyone sits at. Since we're not catering we need tables to put the food on so if anyone has any rectangular tables (I estimate we'll need about 4) we could borrow that would be great. We could also use the foil catering containers, stands, and wick burners that go underneath if anyone has any we could borrow. We promise you'll get everything back!

RSVPs

Just a reminder that RSVPs are due at the end of July. You can either mail the card back, RSVP on this blog or message me on Facebook, or tell me in person. I just need an official RSVP including the count of total people coming. If you don't RSVP there won't be a seat for you at the wedding. We don't order the chairs or tables, our venue does, and they do so a month in advance (Which is why we'd like to get the RSVPs two months in advance so those who forget to RSVP won't be screwed!). So once we give them the final number of guests we can't change it, so please please RSVP to Shaun and I. A lot of people have been telling other family members their coming, so make sure you tell us two as well! Please don't make us have to hunt you down to get an answer. Even if you're not coming please let us know that as well.
