I have 10 BRAND NEW pintuck table runners. I changed my theme last minute and ended up making my own runners so no longer need these, they're still in plastic! They're 12"x108" long, tafta crinkle with 3" pintuck squares. $3 each plus shipping or best offer if you purchase all. Thank you!

Quote:Originally Posted by sj5039 Hello beautiful thread can you share your guest cost and are you having a private reception For one week for our guests with round trip airfare and transfers to and from the airport it was around $1600/person for a regular Junior Suite. We're not having a private reception - we're contemplating semi-private or just non-private, we will probably decide when we get down there.

Quote:Originally Posted by maggie123 That is really a tough part and you made it look so easy. But still it is thought to be rude to do so. Yeah - I don't think it's rude at all. I would feel more awkward not putting it out there and then having some kids show up and others being mad they couldn't bring their kids. The only exception were making is for newborns, we have four friends that are due one-two months before our AHR and we're allowing them to bring the kids because they don't have a choice. And at least at my venue the kids count towards the headcount and I have to be under 200 and am at 220 - lol.

Quote:Originally Posted by FutureMrsHudson I'm barely into the wedding planning process and already going crazy trying to figure out how to do this, with the least amount of offensiveness possible. I honestly would like to have a completely adult-only wedding, but we really should and would enjoy having our nieces and nephews there, and a couple friends may bring kids. So, i'm accepting having children at the ceremony, and some of our nieces and nephews may be in the wedding, but I would like to have an adult-only reception. My fiance & I are willing to pay to provide childcare during the reception, it means that much to us, but I don't know how to word it on the invite/response card/tell people in person. I like to please everyone but at the same time it's my fiance and my day and we want to be able to enjoy it, esp. since we're paying for it all! Looking forward to the responses here! Unfortunately, no matter what you choose to do, it will offend people. Plain and simple. I'm not having children at my reception, and I'm sure I will offend some people, but when it comes down to it - it's my fiance and my day and that's what we want. We don't have children so maybe we're being too harsh, but all of our friends and family we have talked to completely understand, and half of them had child-free receptions as well

I actually have found some more coral real touch flowesr since I posted this. Check out hobby lobby online! They're really nice quality and using them for my bouquet along with some ivory roses.

Dinner for photographer?
ChelseaCat802 replied to pzl101's topic in Wedding Etiquette, Traditions, to dos
What resort are you getting married at? I'm getting married at the IBEROSTAR Rose Hall Suites in MoBay and our wedding coordinator told me that she arranges a small table and dinner for them. I was told I do not need to include them in our headcount. I have videographer, photographer and DJ. They most likely won't even sit down and eat - probably just grab something quickly. -
Congratulations and good luck! Love your inspiration pics and passports look awesome!

Quote:Originally Posted by NJBride2014  I know what you mean I have Coral and Turquoise as my wedding colors too and there are so many different shades of coral it can make you crazy. My birdesmaids haven't picked their dresses yet but I'm sure I'm going to go nuts trying to find the right one. I see you are from Jersey, so am I. Did you find your bridesmaids dresses at a store by you?? I don't know where to even start. I'm doing coral and turquoise as well! David's Bridal has a really nice true coral - it's called Coral Reef - I bought chiffon bridesmaids dresses and it so far matches everything. Turquoise I think is harder than Coral to find because people think aqua and turquoise and tiffany blue are the same. I went with the color "pool" for my MOH dress and love how it turned out

Quote: Originally Posted by TuffLuv LOL, I feel the EXACT same way. Not to mention every PERSON (adult or child) has to be accounted for in regards to food. Yes you are exactly right! I'm at like 45/pp and do not want to have to pay for kids also - and my venue only accommodates 200 people, and that's pretty much where I'm at even without kids!

Quote:Originally Posted by TuffLuv  OMG!!!!I I freaking love it. That is uber cute and creative. Also, I would have done the same (for my friends with new babies). Honestly, we don't mind a few kids and weI understand those who may not be able to get a sitter. However, what we don't want is a bunch of kids running around and not being supervised. Unfortantely, past experiences have shown that when parents get in big group settings they sometimes have a tendency to let their kids loose. Ain't nobody got time for that. LOL Beside we'll be drinking and I want everyone to have a good time and not feel restricted by the presence of kids. Our kid will be supervised by his grandparents and his mom. HaHa. Thank you! Yes totally agree - I just hate kids running around and taking favors off tables without supervision. If they are confined to a carseat - I'm fine with that Haha.

I'm pretty sure we feel EXACTLY the same way. I would label the invitations as you normally would - and then maybe on your save the date - put "adult only reception." I had a hard time deciding where to put it since we can't really say "adult reception to follow ceremony." I have two really close friends that are currently pregnant and when our AHR happens (January) their babies will be a month or two old. I told specifically they could bring their babies, but that's it. They won't be able to come to our AHR unless they bring them because they're so young. Here is how I did it on my RSVP post card. What do you think?

How to politely request no kids at our AHR without offending our guest

I'm in the same boat! I'm putting "adult only reception" on my response card - NOT on the invite itself. I've read a bunch of mixed reviews! I'm afraid if I only include the adult names on the envelope - that's not enough to hint only THEY are invited. I feel your pain. No kids. Haha.
