I am having a private dinner reception, and need some suggestions on food.

 

I will not be able to try of the food options before the wedding.

 

What did you do?

 

Thanks!

Hi @@Starum2288,

 

We had the beach BBQ and it was AMAZING. All of the food was delicious and people were raving about it while going back for 2nds and 3rds

I did the pick two, or whatever, and did the surf/turf with fillet mignon and lobster, which everyone loved.

 

I just received my photos from Lunic. They're stunning! I'll post some soon!

We went with the grilled beef tenderloin or surf and turf option the night of our rehearsal/welcome dinner and the beef was my favorite meal the entire trip there. It was amazing!!

 

For our wedding we went with the braised beef in burgundy sauce. Also delicious!

 

 

Everything was wonderful when we were at the resort. I wouldn't stress too much over food options, especially if you are doing a private party and paying for it!

Also, our wedding photos are officially up on our photographers blog! Right below our wedding day on the blog is also our sunrise session and welcome dinner!

Hello my fellow brides!!

 

I am getting married in October 2016 and I felt pretty good about my plans until I realized I am only 235 days out and basically just have the deposit on my day.

 

Not related to EDR, but to any past brides how did you pick your wedding dress?? I have looked and looked but I am afraid to get something thats too big or too hot! I just ordered a crop top prom dress in white, but debating if I am going to regret not going with the "traditional" gown.

 

Related to EDR How far out did everyone start planning their details at the resort? I have looked online and have a general idea of what I am going for, but haven't tried to make any decisions with my wedding coordinator due to the communication being so far in between.

 

Does anyone have any advice on using their decorations vs taking your own?

I have seen some brides talk about a free cocktail hour. Where did yall see this? I think that would good to use as a welcome reception.

 

Any other planning advice would be greatly appreciated

 

Thanks!
Kim
