We are actually way&nbsp;under budget, which is great. I was thinking of using the leftover money to make some upgrades to our reception (chairs, longer tablecloths, etc.) But instead, Fiance and I have decided to use that money towards a nicer honeymoon. Originally, we were thinking of going somewhere cheap (maybe Mexico) and now we are thinking of going to Europe.</p> <p>Do you guys think we will regret this? Should I just put the money towards something wedding related? I'm not having the most glamorous wedding, so I know I can easily put that money towards making it super nice. But is it really worth it? Any thoughts on this?</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/need-decorating-ideas-for-venue#post-3223849 Mon, 13 Feb 2012 10:52:43 +0000 mcj040916 3223849@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p><a href="#post-3223816">@PinkPinstripes:</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;Yeah, I know you're right. All those things won't matter that day. I am thinking of either uplighting the pillars or wrapping them in some kind of gossamer or fabric.</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/need-decorating-ideas-for-venue#post-3223816 Mon, 13 Feb 2012 10:46:31 +0000 PinkPinstripes 3223816@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>I think uplighting would really tie in your colors well!</p> <p>Honest truth though? Once the room is filled with people, food and drinks...it will look a lot different. No one will notice the things that are probably driving you crazy right now.</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/need-decorating-ideas-for-venue#post-3223792 Mon, 13 Feb 2012 10:42:58 +0000 mcj040916 3223792@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p><a href="#post-3223237">@creativeplannertobee:</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;Thanks =)</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/need-decorating-ideas-for-venue#post-3223237 Mon, 13 Feb 2012 09:03:43 +0000 creativeplannertobee 3223237@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>Oh, those are pretty!&nbsp; :)&nbsp; I really think you are all set!&nbsp; Add your green runner and your two different styles to the tables and you will be good to go.&nbsp; You could add gossamer and/or maybe some Christmas lights?&nbsp;</p> <p>Here is the photo from Kayla Way's wedding.&nbsp; I was going to suggest something like this but with green tissue poms (or green floral poms) But I think what you have chosen is nice!</p> <p><img src="http://s112.photobucket.com/albums/n172/kala_way/Wedding/0007_kgp1.jpg" alt="Recap loveliness! propics of our chill, red/robin blue wedding : wedding 0007 Kgp1" title="0007_kgp1" /></p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/need-decorating-ideas-for-venue#post-3223192 Mon, 13 Feb 2012 08:53:54 +0000 ladyartichoke 3223192@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>How about uplighting the pillars.</p> <p>I also think the place would be well suited to take a starcloth, but it might be quite pricey. &nbsp;Or perhaps twinkle lights (aka pea lights)</p> <p>Ideas:&nbsp;<a href="http://www.inside-outside.co.uk/gallery/cache/party-marquees/frame-tent-with-black-velvet-interior-night-sky-dappled-lighting-over-black-and-white-dance-floor_w667_h500.jpg">Star cloth</a>, <a href="http://www.inside-outside.co.uk/gallery/cache/party-marquees/pea-light-canopy-with-pea-lights-in-table-centres_w667_h500.jpg">Twinkle lights</a>, <a href="http://www.theweddingdj.co.uk/web_images/additional-services-1.jpg">Uplighters</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.theweddingdj.co.uk/web_images/additional-services-1.jpg"></a></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/need-decorating-ideas-for-venue#post-3223149 Mon, 13 Feb 2012 08:44:26 +0000 mcj040916 3223149@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p><a href="#post-3221985">@paigers91:</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;I dont like the fact that it looks old and plain. And I will for sure&nbsp;NOT have the buffet table outside. lol. But we will be putting some high cocktail tables outside for those that want to get some fresh air.</p> <p><a href="#post-3222068">@creativeplannertobee:</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;I agree, I will not have any chair covers. Thanks for the picture. I really like the table decor. Since we already ordered white napkins, I was thinking of adding a green runner.</p> <p><a href="#post-3222127">@Ms Rocky Point:</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;Like I said, I think it looks old =(. I really like the lanterns too =) We will be putting those outside. My mom didnt like the idea of having them inside. I was thinking of adding some gossamer to the ceiling.</p> <p>Half of the tables will have these centerpieces (with purple flowers rather than blue)</p> <p><img src="http://bios.weddingbee.com/pics/180331/bevfabriccrafts_2079_225389780.png" /></p> <p>And the other half will have short centerpieces. Here is a picture of the base&nbsp;(flowers are missing).&nbsp;We are doing our own centerpieces:</p> <p><img src="http://bios.weddingbee.com/pics/180331/New_Image.JPG" /></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/love-me-or-hate-me-this-is-what-im-doing-post-your-off-beat-wedding-plans/page/3#post-3222498 Mon, 13 Feb 2012 05:53:54 +0000 colli459 3222498@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p><a href="#post-2212747">@Miss Tattoo:</a>&nbsp; Hooray for swing dancing!</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>I guess some off-beat things we're doing are:</p> <ul> <li>Having a bridesmaid wear a tux</li> <li>Girls are not wearing the same dress (I know it's not that off-beat, but it definitely is for my ridiculously conservative family)</li> <li>Not having a ceremony in a religious building (only because churches around here are like, 1000+ to get married in. I didn't think the Big Guy worked that way...)</li> <li>My brother is walking me down the aisle. Again, not that off-beat, but is for my family.</li> <li>No garter toss/bouquet toss</li> </ul> <p>Great thread! I love seeing everyone's ideas!</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/wedding-invitationswebsitersvp#post-3222482 Mon, 13 Feb 2012 05:47:46 +0000 thegoogler88 3222482@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p><a href="#post-3222458">@Carnival_Bride:</a>&nbsp; That is so cool!
