Hi everyone, I'm a newb. Wedding is scheduled for 04/22/2017 and all we have reserved is the venue. My Fiancee and I both work part time at the Botanical Garden in town and oversee plenty of weddings a year, but guess what?

Hi everyone, I'm a newb. Wedding is scheduled for 04/22/2017 and all we have reserved is the venue. My Fiancee and I both work part time at the Botanical Garden in town and oversee plenty of weddings a year, but guess what? I don't know what to do for my own even though I've seen it done hundreds of times.

We want a simple and laid back with about 75 guests (15 of which are children)

We are doing backyard bbq type of thing, but I need help with the details. I'm so indecisive and don't know what to wear.

Since we are doing bbq, we decided to incorporate the red and white checkered picnic like table runners on white linens. His stepdad is making the wood rounds for our centerpieces and I've bought several pewter old antique-ish mugs to use as vases for either daisies or baby's breath.

We'll be serving brisket and sausage and have cupcakes instead of cake.

What should my fiancé wear? I think I'll be wearing something short and simple...kindy airy.

    Love the inspiration pictures and sounds like you are going to have a laid back but very nice wedding. I agree with the gray slacks.

    Let him wear sneakers. Maybe ask him to just wear them for the Party and compromise? I like when the groom has an opinion on the attire and makes it their own. But that's just me!

    Thanks everyone!! I really appreciate all the feedback. I was unsure of the "bbq theme" but I'm happy to hear such a positive response! I love the grey pants idea too now! He totally has a say in a lot of stuff, which I don't mind since my suggestion was the court house Smiley smile

    Nerasru, he relocated to Texas, so we work at the one in San Antonio, but that Husker love runs in his blood! Smiley smile

    One more thing, should he add the suspenders? He's a big guy, so I don't know how that'll look? Input?
