Post-wedding Brunch

Jasmine, on September 20, 2019 at 5:05 PM Posted in Parties and Events 0 6

I'm doing the post-wedding brunch to please my family (in my family, it has always been done that way), and my fiance will be paying for it. Should we keep it to just family (even extended family members) or invite everyone? Of course, the more people we invite, the more he has to spend and we are wanting to keep it on a budget.

The brunch will take place at another venue that's a few miles away.

Any advice will help.

Thanks!

    If guests are traveling/staying overnight it would be a nice gesture to have them for brunch but not necessary.

    We are just gonna let people that are staying at the hotel that we will be having brunch at the hotel that next morning and they are welcome to join us if they want. We will not be paying for their breakfast though.

    We didn’t do a brunch the next morning because we couldn’t find a good spot for it - but I’ve never heard of the brunch being exclusive for only certain guests. I thought it was usually for everyone that attended the wedding (although mostly intended for those that came from out of town).

    Usually it’s for anyone who’s had to stay the night, as in who isn't local. If they slept in their own bed, I don’t think they need to be invited. The further you are from home, the longer the list will be if that’s what you choose to do. If that’s going to be too much for the budget, I’d stick with immediate family and bridal party only.

    I'd invite people who are staying over night at a hotel, whether that's all family or a mix of family/friends. If they live locally and are going home after the reception is over, there's no need to invite them to another whole event the next morning.
