no wands
no bubbles
no vienesse
no chocolate fountain (I think)
no bathroom baskets

I will admit that LIW wedding has inspired me to make:

seating chart (list) instead of seating cards

Re: 08 girls...What you will NOT.....

Kudos to the girls who are NOT having alcohol at their receptions!!! FH and I don't drink, and if it were completely up to us, we would have a reception without alcohol, because we're concerned about some of our relatives getting drunk and behaving inappropriately. However, my Dad is paying, and he insists on providing alcohol for guests (even though he's not much of a drinker). He thinks guests will be expecting alcohol and would think we were cheap if we didn't serve any. Personally, I don't care what people think

is it bad I am not doing FG or RB?

I don't want children in my bridal party

Re: 08 girls...What you will NOT.....

I don't think it bad at all, it's just a preference. FH and I have witnessed so many weddings where the kids just misbehave, cry, scream, and thats why we decided against it... BUT not all kids are badly behaved, like I was an awesome flower girl when I was little
