| Ok, so at my wedding and reception we are not going to have alcohol. It will be held at my parents church and alcohol is not permited. I would love to have a reception at another place, but money wise we cannot. My mother is helping me out a little bit with money (which we greatly appreciate) and my fiance and I don't have too much to fork up as we have a 8 month old and are buying a house soon. So it is just going to be the ceremony then food and chatting at the reception. (which will be nice since there is family that will be there that we haven't seen forever) We will also have a kids table for activities (coloring etc) as there will be a lot of kids. Also we are going to have a slideshow put together. I wish I could do more, but money wise we can't. I heard of the couple going out after the wedding to a bar or whatever with "select" people. I think that would be fun, and then my "then to be" husband could go to a hotel or something. Does that sound ok, or not?If that sounds corny to go out later let me know. I just wish we could have some wine or champane at the wedding, but since we can't I want to do a little "partying".No, sorry. Me and my hubby would be going to the hotel. :O)2nd question. Has anyone had a young flower girl? I don't want anyone other than my little 8 month old to be the flower girl. Not that she really has to "walk" down the aisle. I'm not sure if she will be walking by then, she is already pulling herself up to stand. (she'll be 11 months at the wedding) Anyway what are some idea's to get her "down" the aisle. Have someone carry her? Decorate a wagon or "pull cart"? Try to get her to crawl down lol. Any other ideas? |

| Why not?! My sister did that. They had the ceremony and reception (cake and dinner) at the church and then invited their closest friends and family members to a bar where they reserved a private room and everyone paid for their own drinks. It was great! |

| I didn't quite understand that last part. Your husband would be going to a hotel alone? I don't know about that.But the rest of your idea sounds great. I have a friend who is doing the exact same thing in a couple of weeks. They have a tight budget and are having a small reception. Afterwards a bunch of us are going out to a club. |

| Dont worry about drinking. You already have a child so the party reception has already sailed. If you wanna go out after that is entirely up to you. Try to treat this more as a family reunion and celebration of your marriage vows than a wedding reception.As for getting your daughter down the aisle. Maybe have her in a walker? Or designate someone to push her down the aisle in a decorated stroller. |

| We went out after the reception at my best friends wedding it was a lot of fun. She had a late morning wedding so a lot of the evening was free.I wouldn't plan on the flower girl getting down the aisle by herself. You can put her in a wagon like mentioned and have the ring bearer pull her if you are having one. Maybe even just decorate her stroller so she can just sit in that during the ceremony and she's confined and can't attempt an escape like she could from a wagon. Wouldn't want to have to make a dash for the ER should she fall. |
