Yay or Nay?

Yay or Nay?

I'm considering getting a blackjack table or two for cocktail hour (along with a cigar roller). FH LOVES blackjack! Weddings are always all about the bride and all girly and princess-y and I'm not complaining, but I'd also like to incorporate stuff that FH loves and that our male guests can enjoy as well. I called a company yesterday and they said that they do weddings all the time. What do you ladies think?

I think for the cocktail hour that would be really fun - I wouldn't have it during the reception though!

It sounds like a fun idea. If it fit in my budget then I would but I wouldn't splurge for it. I think the cigar roller is a great idea. I want to surprise FH with that!

It isn't as expensive as I thought it would be. Although getting one table will be good enough I think...

I agree with this. I think it would be a fun touch for cocktail hour, but I would be worried about the guests sitting at the tables all night instead of dancing during the reception.

I think it's a great idea for CH. FH and I plan on having a caricature artist for the CH and about an hour into the reception. We're both artist and live in the city so it gives that personal touch of the artists in Times Square.

We're also having a live event painter at our reception. I think that a painting on a canvass is such a beautiful memory that we will be able to hang up in our home and cherish forever.

That's such a GREAT idea for cocktail hour!! The guys will def like that idea, and so will your FH!! Cigar roller is a must with the boys we will most likely do the cigar roller towards the end of the night though

We were thinking about this too. What a wonderful idea to include FHs interests in the wedding.

I think it's a great idea!! But like others said, I would make sure it's only during cocktail hour so everyone can enjoy the party during the reception.

I LOVE that idea! my family and FH love black jack and I wanted a cigar roller but FH wasn't too into it.

Delgie do you mind sending me the company and quote for the black jack table? Thanks!!!

great idea!! Definitely do it during cocktail hour though, you don't want it taking away from your reception!
