I was thinking about an afterparty......

What do you guys think?

Since my reception ends at 5pm I wanted to do something afterwards. At first I was thinking about maybe bar/lounge, but FH doesnt drink. Then I saw a bride post that she went bowling after her wedding. I thought this was such a cool idea, especially since me and FH bowl with our friends.

We would bowl in 42nd st which would be walking distance to the hotel. We would bowl for less than 2 hrs then go on our merry way. I would also have the photographer booked for a couple extra hours to capture the fun.

I thought it was cool and wouldnt cost that much. I would pay for the show rental and the lanes too.

FH wasnt opposed by the idea but thought I was going to be tired. I think I will want the night to continue.....

Re: I was thinking about an afterparty......

I think you will def want the fun to continue. We are doing an afterparty but our wedding ends at either 12 or 1pm at night and my FH says in LI they go to a bar/lounge inside the hotel where we block rooms for our guests. So thats what we are going to do

Re: I was thinking about an afterparty......

I don't think we'll have one, our reception will end at 12.30, but I think we'll be too anxious to get back to the hotel/appartment/house!

Hi! We added on an extra two hours. The wedding ends at 1 am (ceremony 7:30 pm, cocktail hour 8-9:00 pm, dinner/dancing 9-1am , after partay 1 am-3 am). We knew we wanted: 1. someplace to chill after the wedding, 2. food!! 3. A place where our parents/family and our friends could all chill. I just didn't want to have to think about "what next". I'm so happy I did it!
