During our wedding breakfast, we had Singing Waiters which was one of my favourite parts of the day. Standing at the top table watching all of our close family and friends waving napkins, singing and dancing was such a good feeling and one I’ll remember forever! Our guests tucked into sharing boards of meat, cheese varieties and bread as part of our wedding breakfast. They loved the informal main course which was a mixture of make-your-own burgers, chicken strips, chips and couscous. During the reception, we had a saxophonist perform while a magician entertained guests - everyone commented on how amazing both were. We highly recommend having something to entertain guests when the official photographs are being taken. We displayed lanterns and other black accessories around the venue to tie in with our monochrome theme. We had a decorative welcome sign, cake signs and other small signage made using black vinyl which looked very modern. We were guided by our talented florist about which flowers we should pick. I wanted greenery mixed with white blooms and that’s exactly what I got – I was delighted with them. I had them dried after our wedding and made into various acrylic keyrings and coasters. Our cake topper matched our place names. We offered wedding cake and a sweetie table as dessert which went down a treat! For our evening food, we had pizza. On our welcome table was one of my favourite pieces of décor. Alongside the foliage, candles, black accessories (including our table plan) and a white table runner was an old retro black phone which was actually a phone guestbook. Not only did it look amazing but everybody left us such lovely messages! 34
