I think most people tend to expect some sort of food at weddings so if you were not having a dinner you'd need to let people know it's a cocktail reception etc. But i agree with you, almost everyone (including us) will be travelling for our wedding so I definately want to feed them. :)Sun, 01 Jun 2008 20:58:10 GMTCelestialhttp://forums.canadianbride.com/Topic389471-8-1.aspxI agree, it's your day, do what makes u feel good! and if people are travelling far, it's nice to give them a full stomach to go home on!Sun, 01 Jun 2008 12:43:51 GMTcaitlinmhttp://forums.canadianbride.com/Topic389471-8-1.aspxIt is your wedding and if you want a sit down meal/dinner then go for it!!!!</P><P>LilyFri, 30 May 2008 09:02:30 GMTHappyLilyhttp://forums.canadianbride.com/Topic389471-8-1.aspxShe can't tell you to skip dinner! Good for you don't take that! This is your wedding, and you (and your guests) will want to eat. Especially if you don't want FH to see you. Good call.Thu, 29 May 2008 22:59:05 GMTscraggleshttp://forums.canadianbride.com/Topic389471-8-1.aspxI believe that unles you specifically tell people that it will only be for cocktails and try to be as clear as you can with out coming right out and saying no dinner that most people will be expecting dinner. </P><P>Unfortunatley it just seems to be the way it goes.Thu, 29 May 2008 11:03:26 GMTNicotinahttp://forums.canadianbride.com/Topic389471-8-1.aspx[quote][b]ottmann2 (5/28/2008)[/b][hr]well..she will be paying some.
