Everyone loves a good cup of coffee and a decadent dessert!
I recently went to an evening wedding where the bride and groom chose to serve coffee and dessert at there reception. This couple is not in to alcoholic beverages and did not want to spend a lot of money on something they didn't enjoy.
Upon arrival at the reception venue, we were greeted with a beautiful array of sumptious desserts to choose from. Two coffee bars were set up with various flavors of coffee and all the trimmings. ie flavored creams, sweeteners, sprinkles of nutmeg, cinnamon, & cocoa, and whipped cream. Hot water and various teas were also provided. A chocolate fountain with fresh fruit was also a big hit!
When the wedding party arrived, the music began and everyone had a great time dancing and visiting with friends and family.
If you choose this option, you can have your wedding later in the evening, say 7pm. Then include on your RSVP card, "Join us for coffee and dessert after the ceremony at..." That way, everyone knows to eat dinner prior to arriving at the wedding.
Kudos to the couple for honoring their beliefs and still having a fabulously creative and enjoyable evening for their wedding guests.
