Since we're having a day time wedding, we thought it would be a nice idea to have a casual after party for people who felt like keeping the party going. It also gives Mr. M and I a chance to throw a wedding-related party that's a little more "us" than the formal reception. We're pretty laid back people, generally, and a great date night for us involves little more than some awesome cheap food, a couple of beers and a really excellent dessert. (Oh, bliss!) We also know that a lot of the time at our actual wedding reception will be spent taking pictures, greeting out of town guests and doing all of the cake cutting, Dad-dancing, bouquet-tossing wedding stuff that might keep us from spending quality time with our friends who come out to celebrate with us.
So we're planning on taking over a local bar for the evening and bringing in some of our favorite stuff, like the messy-but-delicious gravy soaked roast beef and mozzarella sandwiches from John's Deli and cupcakes from Robicelli's, a local husband-and-wife cupcake business. We'll open up a tab at the bar for our guests and hopefully have a relaxed, chill evening where people can swing by for a drink or a sandwich and just hang out with us!
Best roast beef sandwich EVER! |
Although I know that at the end of the day, I might want nothing more than to collapse into bed at the swanky hotel where we're spending our wedding night, I'm really excited about having an opportunity to get some quality time with our guests - and that sandwich!
