Tubing party

I haven't posted about real weddings for a while, but how fun is this pre-wedding tubing party? What a great way to have all your guests relax and get to know each other before the ceremony and reception.

  4. We planned to do a similar thing at our wedding last year but had to cancel because it was unusually cold. Would have been a blast, these pictures make it look so great! Nothing like getting to know someone in their bathing suit!

  28. So much fun. Floating is big here in Missouri and a tubing trip and camping was what we did for my sister's bachelorette party. It was such a good time.

  29. If I wasn't already married, I would steal this idea. At the same time, I can definitely adapt it for some other type of celebration! How fun!

  30. That's superfun! Except I always get super scratched up when I go tubing!! Bruised Bride!! Haha. We're doing something sort of similar. My fiance and I are super active so we're going to have a "5k fun run" followed by a chuckwagon diner in the park by the lake! Next week! I can't wait!

    I did this same float last summer with my then 2 1/2 year old, my husband and my sister visiting from Australia. It is the Truckee river, floating from Tahoe City down to Alpine Meadows right by Lake Tahoe. it is a fun float and so pretty, gets pretty crazy on the weekends. I'm sure this group had a great time together

  32. I love this idea!! It looks so beautiful. I always say it's better to have some kind of activity. You will remember it forever compared to just going out to a restaurant.

  33. I love that idea! I'm wondering why I never heard of it before.
    It's a great way to meet and greet each other in a very relaxed way and river tubing is fun pure!
