Kentucky-Style Wedding Reception: NOT like a New York Wedding...

At Saturday's wedding reception, we had a conversation with a non-NewYorker who discussed "other" wedding receptions.

As mentioned in a previous post, the New York Wedding Receptions we've experienced have been extravagant!

I must admit, that, in my lifetime, I have only experienced Weddings and Receptions in five different states. What I've seen here, has indeed topped the list as far as expenses spent.

Apparently, Kentucky weddings can be a little different.

You might be invited to a pot-luck dinner. Or maybe a pot-luck picnic. Which means, "You're invited to the reception, please bring something to eat". No kidding.

And, such weddings might be held at a county park, with baseball game as the primary entertainment.

Anecdotes from these weddings have related that such receptions are more memorable than any fancy wedding attended.

So, instead of having a wedding that costs as much as some mortgages, if you want a cheaper wedding, have it in Kentucky!
