Reception Idea -- Kiss Cam!

A new thing I have been seeing at wedding receptions -- a new twist on the kiss! Traditionally, the bride and groom have to kiss when their guests clink on their drinking glasses. Well, why not turn the clicking on them? Pre-select couples that you would like to do the kissing for you. Have your videographer set up a special camera at the reception and connect it to an LCD projector. Beam that on the wall and have your DJ play the song "Kiss Me."

Creative ideas make your reception fun and exciting for your guests too!

Sports lovers...literally!

Once again, the Buffalo Bills kicked a wide right field goal to lose the football game during Monday night football. So sad... Like the late Tim Russert, I have roots in Buffalo (where I was born and raised, and watched Buffalo lose four consecutive Superbowls!), attended college in Ohio, and (sort of) have a connection with politics. (My husband works in local government as a city manager.) Even though they lost tonight, the Bills still make me want to shout! :-)

Having lived in Ohio since 1996, I also enjoy watching live Cincinnati Reds and Bengals games. There is something about the crowd at a game. Speaking of which, did you know you can have your wedding at Duke Energy field, host your rehearsal dinner in a box, have your wedding photos taken at the Bengals Stadium, or get the Buckeye mascot to come to your reception? I have had die-hard Buckeye fans play the game during their wedding reception or (at least!) have the DJ announce the scores. You can have your wedding reception at the Cintas Center, a local country club or even on an ice rink. Most courses will let you have photos on the greens but some have restrictions with the ceremony. So many unique ways to bring the love of sports into your wedding! Now if only the groom could look like David Beckham...
