My fiance's family (and some of mine) will be coming in from out-of-town and are staying at a hotel. Other members of my family live in the area, but not close to the church. Our ceremony is at 1:30 and our reception won't start until 5 or 6, so there will be a good 2-3 hours in between. My mother insists that we need to figure something out for the guests to do while we're taking photos, but we're limited on options. We cannot have a gathering at our home because it's too small, and we don't have the option of another relative's house. My mother suggested we book an extra hour onto the reception, but it's very expensive and most of the sites can't add an hour to the beginning because of set-up.
I keep telling my mother that people aren't surprised when there is time in between, but she insists we can't do that. What should we do? The reception will be close to the hotel of the out-of-towners.
