We were thinking if we did it we would just have like a big backyard BBQ. I wanted to try to beach theme it but it would just be too much of a hassle so we are going for the easy route if we do it.

Was thinking the same, but in St Louis you never know what the weather is going to be.

Kelly, When is your AHR going to be? I'm a Nov bride and once we get back from our HM it's in the full swing of the holidays. We are waiting till the second week of Jan to have ours so it will be less crazy. We are going with an easy luau theme with centerpeices with playsand and shells from the craft store along with cheezy cheap finds you can find now anywhere because of the summer theme.

Maybe you could see about renting a tent or something I'm sure that has to be cheaper than renting out an entire venue. Here in Alberta we have messed weather too one day snowing the next like +20 so we were pondering the tent idea. But then again I don't know what the weather is like ther in Nov it may be too cold to do anything outside.

I think I've decided to bag the whole AHR idea, although I haven't told my FI yet. I've got enough party planning with the DW. I just don't have it in me to do another. When we were going to do it, we were going to wait a few months and have a backyard bbq as well. We were figuring the easier the better.

I am back and forth on the whole AHR. My family is huge and I would love to wait until the weather is warm to have our AHR. My FI thinks that is too long after the wedding. How long are you waiting to host your AHR?
