Receptions decisions

Champagne & Cake  VS. Cocktails

We have been thinking about what kind of reception to have.  And of course we (just like mostly everyone gettin hitched)  are on a budget; so it can't be something that is going to break the bank.  We are thinking that we want to do something a little different from a formal sit-down type of dinner.  Our best options seem to be either a cocktail reception or a champagne & cake reception.  Another plus, i think, of having something like this is that it'd allow everyone to mingle more rather than be confined to the table they've been assigned to. Obviously we'd have some tables and chairs for people to sit - but at their leisure. :)   The problem is though, at what time of the day is best for either one???  Champagne and cake is probably best for after dinner time and not in the afternoon, so perhaps a 7pm ceremony and then reception begins at 7:30pm?  Or is that better for cocktails?  This has me confused! Anyone have any opinions or thoughts? If so, please share :) 

p.s.) Not sure if this detail will make a difference but it'd probably be a reception of 75-100 people.

Anthropologie wedding dresses!?


I just read something very exciting! -- And thanks to A Cup of Jo for sharing this info! -- One of my favorite stores Anthropologie will be launching a wedding line! Which will include bridal dresses, bridesmaids dresses, shoes, undies, decorations, etc.  Pretty much everything it seems! I can only imagine how deliciously vintage and pretty it would look!  It will be launching in Spring 2011. Hmm,  is it wrong that this makes me want to postpone our October 2010 wedding ? ;)
