| So after reading a fellow CBers post that she talked about being stressed over using drink tickets and not having perfect centerpieces I started thinking that yes I'm doing lots of things that people might not agree with but I don't care! So fellow brides what are you doing/not doing that others won't like but you don't care? My list: -We are not having wine with dinner, just punch! -Some people are only invited to the "dance" part of the reception! -I'm having a cash bar! -I'm not having a "late night buffet" -I'm spending the night before the wedding with FH and will have breakfast with him that morning

| I always like these threads lol. I am not: -having traditional favours, just a candy buffet, no late night buffet. -just having a coed bachelor/stagette party, or no stagette at all, might just go to NYC with a friend instead. -Not handing out cake, having a 1 tier to cut, but supper comes with Pie(which is better IMO)and than candy. Think that's it. Oh guess my biggest tradition breaker is that I already have a kid and I'm not married...it's a bit "cart before Horse"ish
