Instead of providing catering and a limited bar for our guests, we have decided to go with a potluck Thanksgiving style dinner for our reception! This means that many people will be asked to bring a dish for the reception or to provide beverages. Alcohol will be brown bag, with the exception of champagne and possibly a few other local selections.
Don't break your budget to bring a nice dish. If you have a famous macaroni dish or lasagna, that will do just fine. We have a potluck wish list (items that we would really like to have at the wedding) which you will see below and as people sign up or agree to bring an item, their names will be added alongside that dish so everyone will know what is left to bring, or for other items I will write CLOSED beside it so we don't end up with 10 casseroles and no drinks lol. To sign up to bring a particular dish, send us a facebook message or give us a call!
At the reception we will ideally have cards placed in front of dishes labeling who was the cook and the name of the dish. If you'd like to provide recipe cards, that could be cool as well. Feel free to shoot recipe ideas past me. This is really a very basic list but just wanted to see how it went!
