Hi all, First off, I am new. I've been a lurker f or a while and finally decided to post.
I have about 3 hours btwn church and reception. Those who live nearby will probably go home to get dressed. My concern is those who live further away and OTG. Should we book a hospitality suite at the hotel? Has anyone done this and is it crazy expensive?
Also, anyone else have trouble erasing typos and things?
TIA

We are going to take pictures with the bridal party with our 3.5 hour break. I am going to have my mom have cookies and coffee set up at my house so people have a place to go in between.

Welcome, my direct family wil be going to my house and my fiancees family will be going to his house for the time between. Also most halls will open up a waiting area. Check with your hall cause they might have an option for you.
Good luck planning!

Thanks. Yes, I will p ost more and include pics and stuff--I have none at work.
I never found it a big deal either, but then again I live on LI. Some of my city and NJ guests are like 'what are we going to dp. 've got time to figure it out . We will take some pics at FMiL and FFIL's. They have an amazing water f view, so maybe we'll order refreshments and bubbly there and open it up to those who are stranded with no where to go.

Ok, don't think my computer likes this site. I'm really not that bad of a poster.

Is the reception at a hotel? If so the guest can just hang out at the bar. We had a wedding in Boston my FH was in so we all just got a few drinks at the bar.

I figure they can go back to their hotel rooms and relax. I am also going to make an OOT newsletter about things to do in the area.

Re: Break between church and reception
Well at my RH they have a room downstairs, its like a lounge area for any guests that show up early, they will have food for them and serve them drinks and have music too. Ask your Rh about guests that arrive early, some of them do have options.
