Anyways, you might be able to find it, if you look for it in tags. There were tons of great ideas in some of her posts and lots of readers commented with additional thoughts and suggestions. </p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/vintageretro-film-themed-cocktail-reception#post-71797 Sat, 26 Jul 2008 22:24:44 +0000 TallBride 71797@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p><img src="http://abbyjean.typepad.com/.shared/image.html?/photos/uncategorized/2008/04/17/unique_wedding_by_zoomworks.jpg" alt="inspiration board" /><a href="http://abbyjean.typepad.com/.shared/image.html?/photos/uncategorized/2008/04/17/unique_wedding_by_zoomworks.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://abbyjean.typepad.com/.shared/image.html?/photos/uncategorized/2008/04/17/unique_wedding_by_zoomworks.jpg</a></p> <p>you can find so many inspiration boards on stylemepretty.com&nbsp;</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/vintageretro-film-themed-cocktail-reception#post-71792 Sat, 26 Jul 2008 22:08:40 +0000 TallBride 71792@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>oh oh oh... fall + movies = HALLOWEEN CANDY sales! you can get candy that would eb good for a candy buffet on sale, andsince kids don't like the old fashioned ones you're in double luck</p> <p>&nbsp;Go to a craft store like michaels, they have a lot of fall invetory out now to give more inspiration</p> <p>You can do movie inspired drinks too!</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/vintageretro-film-themed-cocktail-reception#post-71741 Sat, 26 Jul 2008 17:37:32 +0000 decenturbanlifestyle 71741@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>check this out.</p> <p><a href="http://chrispluslynn.blogspot.com/2008/06/laurenkris-vintage-50s-rehearsal-dinner.html" rel="nofollow">http://chrispluslynn.blogspot.com/2008/06/laurenkris-vintage-50s-rehearsal-dinner.html</a></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/vintageretro-film-themed-cocktail-reception#post-71730 Sat, 26 Jul 2008 15:32:33 +0000 Eskimobar 71730@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>Thank you for the help! I love those ideas. I'm thinking maybe a vintage movie poster invite. =) </p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/vintageretro-film-themed-cocktail-reception#post-71178 Thu, 24 Jul 2008 15:28:35 +0000 kourtann 71178@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>THis sounds like such a cute idea!!!! And, I love your colors. You could have a popcorn bar at the reception, and buy some little popcorn boxes for people to fill. I have seen the boxes online, but i don't remember where. I came across some movie reels, super cheap, on ebay!! You could put them on the walls, etc. Here is the link:</p> <p><a href="http://search.ebay.com/search/search.dll?from=R40&amp;_trksid=m37&amp;satitle=movie+reels&amp;category0">http://search.ebay.com/search/search.dll?from=R40&amp;_trksid=m37&amp;satitle=movie+reels&amp;category0</a>=</p> <p>let me know if that doesn't work. You'll have to let us know how the planning goes, I am officially intrigued!! </p> <p>You could also buy some reprints of old movie posters. you can try <a href="http://www.allposters.com/">www.allposters.com</a></p> <p>Good luck!!!</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/vintageretro-film-themed-cocktail-reception#post-71127 Thu, 24 Jul 2008 13:56:01 +0000 Eskimobar 71127@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>Hello Hive,</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>After having our formal wedding in my home state of California, my FH and I will be hosting a cocktail reception in his home state of Kansas, during Thanksgiving weekend. We're thinking of making it a more relaxed evening with a possible film theme because we are both movie LOVERS! But, since we came up with the idea, I've been having trouble finding some inspiration. This is why I'm turning to the wonderful Hive. I really need some help finding pretty much everything. The color scheme we're working with is dark brown, burnt pumpkin orange, and marigold. I was thinking movie reels, vintage projectors, popcorn... I would REALLY appreciate what you ladies can offer in the form of ideas and visuals in order to make this reception great and fun.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Thank you!!!&nbsp;</p>
