But are you meant to stay till the end of the reception?
We're staying in the venue on that night time as are many of the guests!
We've gotta pay in advance if we want any food after the weddin reception but they're only offering bacon sarnies
I mean i like something to eat once ive drank otherwise im ill the next day!
Plus we're out in the middle of no where so im certain there's no takeaways nearby lol

p.s im hungry atm which is probs why this has popped into my mind!

You could always make up a mini-hamper to put in your room for after the reception with all the goodies you like, you could make it really romantic - strawberries etc!

I read the title of the topic and laughed, almost asked if you wanted a diagram :P
I think Calla Lily has it spot on there, it's what I'd do. Noooooo Dodge - they're gonna have to drag me off that dancefloor, last woman standing and all hehe xxx
It's right what they say
"The course of true love never runs smoothly"
But if it had been easy then we wouldn't love each other as
much as we do right now - 1 week to go :D
Oooh Calla Lilly.. I like the sound of that!! Good Idea!!
I hadn't thought about it 2bh... but I am now!! :) xx

you sound like me nicola... on the verge of dying if you go 2mins without food. If there's no take-aways nearby I agree with a romantic hamper lol YUM (and yes now i'm hungry too, thanks a bunch *tut*)

CommentAuthorEriksfjord
We're staying at the hotel too! We were just going to go to bed when we feel ready - I expect we will stay till the end!! There will be champagne and strawberries in our room if we want a midnight snack! xx
CommentAuthorKesha
I think were staying til the end....Ive never been one to leave a party early and I wont start now lol. I do think a hamper sounds like a great idea. Obviously include some things that will actually fill you up, strawberrys and chocolate spread are for other things! lol
CommentAuthorEmmielene

CommentAuthoriluvcakes

We're at the hotel that the wedding and reception will be taking place so will go to bed and enjoy ourselves.
Not sure who's job it is to sort out the guests at the end of the evening though. I think we say bye and then the best man and grooms man deal with everyone??? Am I right??
The days are flying by, can't wait :)

CommentAuthorHelen

P.s - At the end of our night I know I'm gonna be CARRYING the groom up to bed as he will be comatose ..... Hmmm his BM are bad influences and that's BEFORE we are even married lmao x
CommentAuthorEmmielene
Paul needs no incentive. Im dreading the first dance cos no doubt he will be slobbed head on my shoulder being the only thing holding him up and drool all down the back of my gorgeous lace backed dress

the idea of a hamper sounds brilliant, our buffet is being served at 7 so we will be starving by the end of the night, so a hamper will be most convenient x

I managed about 2 glasses of wine and very little food all day - kept going on adrenaline! There was plenty of buffet left as Sean insisting in over-ordering as he was panicking it would run out. The manager of the hotel was very surprised to find a friend and I filling our plates at 1am when he thought everyone had left. Sean won't eat less than 3 hours before going to bed.
CommentAuthorx~Hails~x
Well i was gonna say if you didnt know then i SURE as heck am not gonna show ya :-)
But after reading the post, yep i agree put together a hamper and leave it in your room for when you get back to the room. Think im going to do this as well :-)

i dont think the whole "bride and groom leaving first adn gettin departure annoucned" or "leaving and leave the best man etc to sort everyone out" is done so much now a days..i think thats a tradition that is slowly dying down casue ive been to many a wedding where we get to the end and the b & g are still dancing/drinking/chatting with everyone at the end!
defo goin to do the hamper :D xx
