Re: Rate your 'extras'

Oh, I also want Mr. Met to come but I have mixed feelings about it. I think it would be fun, but it is expensive for only an hour. It would make for some great photos and keep everyone talking.

But, I worry if it is going to be too much of a distraction. I am not sure how FH would react, and think maybe that would be better for a brithday party or something. He loves the Mets and I was going to get Mr. met for him, but lately he has been saying things that make me think he wouldn't want him/

FH wants MR. Met too! but i think he is too pricey. i got him a Mr. Met groom's cake instead.

Although i have to admit.. this video of Mr. Met at a wedding is hilarious..

I want nice chair covers for the ceremony room, i don't wanna spend the money, but I hate the chairs in there.

We'd like a photobooth, but i think it would look tacky at the NRC because there would be no where to put it. The lobby is just big enough for whats already in there

FH likes the idea of cigar roller so maybe we will do that...

I wanted a candy bar, but FH vetoed it and said it was tacky... it is soooo not tacky, but it would annoy him so no candy bar :(

hmm.. The extra's i want but i'm sure i'm going to get.

1. uplighting (DEF getting.. not sure if through hall or DJ)
2. Zeppoli Maker (thanks for getting that in my head now!)
3. After Party at RH (they have a live jazz band, cigar roller, and service bfast!, it's a twist on v-hour)

I THINK that's it really lol. As of now anyway.

Re: Rate your 'extras'

I had trouble putting them in order of which I want more because for the most part- they are all not happening so there is no point, lol. Only uplighting, I am close to laying out for them.

- uplighting- definately doing this if I have money left over a month or two before
- pin spot lighting
- Saturday night instead of Sunday- dont know if this is an extra
- Longer honeymoon- and to Hawaii!!
- Desserts on table- only having cake and cannoli plate to save
- String quartet at ceremony
- Live coctail hour music
- Band in addition to dj
- Engagement Party
- DOC
- After Party
- VH
- Extra hour
- Cigar roller

Re: Rate your 'extras'

erm, what is this uplighting you are all in love with?

Re: Rate your 'extras'

Up lighting is when they (usually a DJ from what i've seen) use large LED lights spaced along the floor, against the wall, to give the room color.

like this...
