Unique reception ideas

So, we were thinking about having breakfast for dinner...idk about y'all but I love it. Is that retarded??

I feel like I want to make the reception as unique as possible so if anyone can think of any unique ideas let me know!

Re: Unique reception ideas

  • OMG I loooooove breakfast for dinner. I would be all over that. Though you might want to make that known because some people might be expecting typical dinner foods.

    now I want breakfast. 

    can I come to the reception? haha

  • check out offbeatbride.com  They have a lot of unique ideas.
  • I think thats an awesome idea!! We went to an omlette bar wedding in the mid afternoon. So freaking good!!
  • If you go for a breakfast reception, there are a number of options you can do.  I've been to a restaurant that offered salmon eggs benedict and crabcake eggs benedict.  I haven't tried either of them, but they sound delicious and it's a way to sort of "fancy" it up a bit. Blintzes or crepes can be "fancy" breakfast food too.  

    I just had dinner, but I think I'm getting hungry again lol.

    Yum, that sounds good.  I think it's a great idea!  I would love to go to a reception and have breakfast.  I would definitely do crepes, sooo yummy!

    you can absolutely come!! 

  • I love it!  I'll be honest--I'd rather have than anyyyday over having the fancy wedding meals usually served.

  • All I can think about now is french toast, sausage, eggs. YUMMY!!!! I think its a great idea! It might be a little less expensive than prime rib. Go for it! My brother & SIL got married in the morning & served brunch. It was soooo good!
  • I think it works if you're having a morning or afternoon reception but I personally think people might be a little turned off if you serve breakfast foods at an evening reception instead of dinner type foods.

    You can always do something more casual than a typical sit down dinner reception like a cocktail reception.

  • A crepe station or an omelet station could be fun, and totally original. :) Yum!
