An idea for my wedding reception is to pitch a huge tent (I’m expecting roughly 375 guests).?

My wedding date is April 24, 2010. Have any suggestions on WHERE a nice location would be? Preferably an area away from from traffic, neighborhoods, etc. Maybe a huge park area or something in Southeast Michigan (Oakland County or Macomb County).
Thanks!

Wedding reception ideas for 20-25 guests?

I am getting married March 20, 2010 and I need some advice/ideas. I have a very small budget of about $1000. I found a local botanical garden that I can have my ceremony in for $150 in a beautiful gazebo. I am really just stuck on the reception part of the wedding. I was thinking I can have a buffet style reception at a local restaurant with a few candles on the table and maybe a few vases of flowers and we can get a small wedding cake for under $100 here. I want it to be mostly casual. I guess my question is do you think that would be ok and not too boring for that few amount of people. Also, there is a local restaurant/tiki bar here and I always have a blast when I go there. They have live music, dancing, drinking. I was thinking about paying for the reception at another restaurant because this one is a little out of my budget but just letting the guest know (which would all be family) that we are planning to go to the bar later in the evening and asking them if they want to join.I would not be able to pay for that for them though. It would be a casual thing. Would that be rude? How would I ask that? Any ideas would help. Also, I am in Spring Hill, FL.

Wedding Shower Centerpieces/take Home Gifts For Guests – Need Help!?

Help, the shower is this Sunday! A bridesmaid was supposed to bake cookies and attach them to sticks to serve as centerpieces in vases on the tables and individual gifts for the guests to bring home. Well, the bridesmaid screwed them up and they all broke!
Please post ANY ideas for easy, inexpensive wedding shower decorations that can also serve as a little thank you for coming. The mother of the bride ran out and bought little Renuzit candles, but they look tacky and will only be our back up plan.
Thank you, thank you, thank you in advance! (Fingers crossed)
