So there are alot of things I've seen that I would like to have at my wedding, and I obviously cannot afford them all. So, I was making a list of all the extra things I want and rating them. Just wondering what you girls must have, and would like, and how you rate them
1. Photo Booth 2. Candy Bar 3. Chocolate Menu 4. Scroll Table List 5. Potato Skin Station 6. Ice Cream Bar 7. Scroll Invitations 8. Chocolate Fountain 9. First Dance on a Cloud 10. Fresh Zeppoli Maker 12. Cigar Roller
Oh and FH really wants a Gyro station and to ride in a Bentley. I guess I should put those on the list but they really don't rate to me.

Re: Rate your 'extras'
Chocolate Fountain - if you talk to your hall you might be able to have a chocolate fountain thrown in.
First dance on a cloud? Do you mean dry ice?
Photo Booth - imo i wouldn't do it. I would be afraid that it would form lines.
Ice Cream Bar - messy messy messy
Cigar Roller - i HATE the smell of them so for me thats a easy decision
Scroll Table list - what is that?
the others are ok but not my thing.
NOW a fresh zeppoli maker huh? HMMM... interesting.......... lol
I'll give my comments on each....I recommend getting the Viennese Hour because many of the things you listed will probably come with it!
1. Photo Booth Fun idea, but I looked into and it is very expensive and not worth it, IMO (no one will miss it) 2. Candy Bar This comes with my Viennese Hour, definitely cool! 3. Chocolate Menu I like this idea, might look into it...kind of pricey though. 4. Scroll Table List Good one, do it! 5. Potato Skin Station Cool, but no one will miss this one! 6. Ice Cream Bar This also comes with my Viennese Hour 7. Scroll Invitations Not sure what this is.... 8. Chocolate Fountain Comes with my Viennese Hour...DO IT! 9. First Dance on a Cloud Cool idea, not sure of the price! 10. Fresh Zeppoli Maker Comes with my Viennese Hour 12. Cigar Roller Not a fan of smoking, so I wouldn't do this

Re: Rate your 'extras'
I am not doing full VH, but I do like the Ice Cream Bar.
I didn't mean rate MY extras. I meant what things do you want and how important are they to you? I am sure there are alot of things you girls might want that don't appeal to me at all.
Like, the cigar roller is on the bottom, because while I think it is cool and would be enjoyed, it's not really something I HAVE to have.
And the dancing on a cloud - yes dry ice. Saw photos and videos of it and it just looks so, so pretty. but hardly worth, I think it's like $300, for those 3 or 4 minutes. Plus your RH may not let you do it because it could damage the hardwood floors.
Ooooh, I forgot about the extra hour. But ours is already going to 11:30, so I think most people won't want to stay much later.

Re: Rate your 'extras'
The only thing I have on my extra list so far is...
an ice sculpture (wine rack) and a cigar roller
I do want both to be honest and so does FH but since there is only 2 things I would hope we can get them.

Re: Rate your 'extras'
our extras would be...
My tri-color cookie wedding cake done by Ace of Cakes...(which may still be doable, just not by them...) so on top of that....
1) photo booth 2) candy bar 3) ice cream truck for people to enjoy right after our outdoor August ceremony or a coffee or hot dog cart for end of the reception (we met/ went to school/work in NYC so that would be cute) 4) up lighting 5) name in lights on the dance floor (we could have got these (#4 and #5) cheap with one DJ but my FH really loved the guys we booked so now I'm outta luck) 6) Vietneese Hour 7) Mashed potato bar / Sangria bar/ Martini bar at Coctail hour

That made me LOL. Couldn't they just take it out of the room?
Oh, and I guess I should add that we are having a precussionist. I wouldn't really call that an 'extra' because it was part of the DJ package. But I guess the package we chose was full of extras.
