Title: Michael Flatleys Reception & Honeymoon Tips

Author: Chris Morton

Article:
Actors and musicians aren't the only celebrities who can have
lovely weddings we can learn from as we plan our own. The fall
wedding of a famous dancer can make our own big events a little
more special.

Dancing Down the Aisle

On October 18, 2006, the man best known as the Lord of the
Dance, Michael Flatley, exchanged vows with fellow performer
Niamh O'Brien at St. Patrick's Church in County Cork, Ireland
just a short trip from Flatley's home. Michael and Niamh had
known each other and worked together for more than a decade
before finally tying the knot. And their big decision drew large
crowds - thousands of people from the area gathered outside the
church to see or shake hands with Michael as he made his way
inside the church.

The enormous guest lists - more than 250 friends and family
members packed the church - found themselves later enjoying a
seafood (including oysters, fresh salmon, and lobster) and beef
buffet until six o'clock in the morning the following day.

Unlike Tom and Katie Cruz who left early the morning after their
wedding for a honeymoon, Michael and Niamh headed back to work
in order to prepare for a new dance tour. They decided to put
off their honeymoon until later in the year.

Key Tips from Michael

While it's not likely that a huge group of well wishers will be
gathered outside of your ceremony location on that big day, you
can take some of Michael and Niamh's experience into
consideration as you plan your own matrimonial celebration.

For starters, the buffet is a great idea. There a couple of
advantages to having a buffet at your reception. First, you will
save money. Because your guests actually serve themselves, you
won't have to pay extra for servers. The money you save can
allow you to provide better quality food or, if you're on a
tight budget, maybe to get something else you really want for
your wedding. Second, you can provide more options. If you have
a formal sit-down meal with only the choices of beef or chicken,
then you're not giving your guests many options. After all,
there may be some people who'd prefer fish or who are
vegetarians. Keep in mind that your buffet doesn't have to be
packed with seafood - although it could be. You can choose the
entrees and sides you think will appeal to your guests, which
fit your budget, and which also reflect your tastes.

Another idea is the delayed honeymoon. While Michael and Niamh
chose to wait because of work, there are other reasons to do so.
For example, if you've paid for the wedding, you may not be able
to afford the honeymoon you want, so why not keep saving your
money for a few months until you have enough to take that great
trip? Some couples are also delaying their honeymoons until
their first anniversaries or until they want to start their
families - a romantic getaway for just the two of you makes a
great backdrop for either event.

In the end, it's these decisions that are going to make your
special day uniquely yours.
