Also, in many cases, a buffet dinner is
less expensive than the traditional 4t-
wa1..reeeptiun,. '
Another alternative that is becoming"
increasingly popular is a cocktail hour
reception. Similar to a buffet reception, a
cocktail reception usually includes cham-
pagne with hot and cold hors d'oeuvre be-
ing circulated, or a buffet ble with hors
d'oeuvre that people can. elp themselves
to, and a bar complete w h me as well
as hard liquor.
For those .more interested in a- recep-
tion with a "country feeling", outdoor
luncheons complete with tent or awning
are always nice. You• might even want
to serve a picnic lunch complete with in-
dividual baskets that would make the
event fun as well as easier to serve!
• It is always the small details that real-
ly stand out when it comes to judging
which receptions are the most special:
Balloons, ribbons or netting — all
relatively inexpensive — can add a
special flair when it comes to decorating
for a wedding reception.
Flowers — whether exotic or wild --
add to the ambiance; as Toes music. Both
flowers and music can run into some
money, so it is best to research the dif-
ferent types available to you.
Flower arrangements range trom pot-
ted plants placed on tables and arranged
strategically throughout the reception
area to wild flowers strewn in baskets, to
the very delicate single white lily in a
vase.
There is music to suit everyone's taste
and, because it is a universal language
you can be sure that no. matter what type
you choose, it is sure to be enjoyed by
most everyone.
With so many options to choose from in
terms of both lifestyle and types of wed-
' dings, today's couples have to remember
to follow their hearts and do what
reflects their personal taste and style.
