With a new hotel, we of course have a new venue for our wedding breakfast! It started out as simple, in a room in the old hotel we'd never seen, and like anything else with a wedding, it's become kind of a big deal!This is the walkway leading up to the Julep Room! Pretty!!! There will be a table outside with some type of framed sign telling guests they're in the right place!
These are the walls inside - it was formerly the chapel in the historic hotel and renovated to become a small conference room - it's perfect for our little informal breakfast!!! It will have to be informal since I'll be wearing embroidered athletic shorts that say "Bride" or something cheesy like that with an equally cheesy tank and M will be wearing his "Groom" t-shirt! We have to ham it up a little bit - and I want to be comfy as I'm gearing up towards 10+ hours in my binding dress!!!
We picked these adorable napkins up yesterday at Celebrations - a big destination wedding planner and events company. They have a great retail store as well - we also ordered our invitations from there!
These napkins are pink with white dots on one side and white with pink dots on the other. There will be normal table linens at the hotel, but these will be cute to set up for coffee, etc... and you never know when there'll be a spill! At least we can color coordinatedly clean it up!!!
For the centerpieces, we will have lavender (both color and scent) 6 inch pillar candles on small glass pedestals. There will be confetti that says "LOVE", has hearts, doves, etc. sprinkled around the candles - nice, simple and cheap since I never budgeted this stuff but felt the need to decorate once standing in the Martha Stewart aisle of Walmart - just couldn't resist sprucin' up this breakfast a bit! It will be all of our wedding party and most of our immediate family members... approximately 25 to 30 people!
This is similar to the candles I bought:
The pedestals are similar to this one, but clear glass - close, but the ones we have are a lot prettier!
This is similar (in color at least) to the confetti I found - it's much prettier than this picture, but I couldn't find it online.
And the icing on the cake will be these gorgeous and festive Martha Stewart PomPoms hanging from the ceiling - I bought 10 of them! I Love these!!! M hates them, but I didn't use them at the wedding, so he has to let me use them for the breakfast!!! And I don't see him schleppin around buying candles and confetti to make this nice - if you don't participate, you have no choice!!! But I must not complain - he's been the most helpful and involved groom in the history of marriages!!!
