Reception, "Bar" and Meal

MEAL:
We will be serving a full meal at the dinner portion of the reception. There will be offered a separate Children's option for the younger guests, as we are well aware that many children prefer foods other than we adults enjoy. Our caterer will be The Wautoma Farm Market. I realize I am biased, but it will be quite a treat for all! The food Holly prepares is fantastic and she has a true talent with presentation! Those of you from that area can attest to my truth. I must admit I am a tad spoiled by the delightful Holly, but I'll take it with appreciation and love!! :o)

We will be having delicious Wedding Cake made for us by my sister's friend, Kristen. She too is very talented and has been doing cakes of all sorts for a long time. We are so blessed to have such talented friends, family, and friends of family! My mouth is watering just writing about so many mouth-watering delights!

BAR:
The question often comes up whether there will be an open bar or not. Here is the low down on what we plan on doing:

ALCOHOL: Richard and I will have some pre-mixed specialty alcoholic drinks and a keg of domestic beer available. We also intend to have wine, as well. Because the reception site is not an actual bar facility, when what we have provided is gone, that will be all that is available as we have to bring it in anyway. They don't have a "stock room" of beverage options. There will be a "bartender" to distribute the drinks so that those too young aren't attracted to the taps and pitchers!

NON-ALCOHOLIC: We will have sodas, bottle water, and probably tea, lemonade, or both.


RECEPTION 'DANCE':
It is our goal to mix variety of music and both of our cultures through the music. Please, please, please DANCE and enjoy! To my American Family and Friends.... I dare you to attempt to avoid 'shaking a tail feather' or at the very least toe-tapping to Trini Music! It is IMPOSSIBLE even for this poor gal with the dance talent of a pogo stick!

(**Sorry Babe, in advance, for my embarrassing display of dance-less-ness in front of your family and friends! At least our little one got his rhythm from you!**)
