From Miss to Mrs: The Morning After

Almost 3 weeks ago, I posted the end of our wedding reception. Since I haven't mentioned the wedding since you may have thought I was finished blogging about it. But surprise, surprise, I have a few final recaps posts to come. If part of you is saying, it's been over a year, time to move on, I understand and promise to soon. But first...
The morning after our wedding, after I night the boy & I spent at the Crowne Plaza, we all joined together at my now SIL's house for a morning after brunch. We expected to be one of the last one's there, but be it a mix of adrenaline and the excitement of our first morning as a married couple, we actually arrived before most of the guests.
But eventually friends and family arrived for a breakfast, leftover wedding cake, and present opening.
I'm opening my ice cream maker in the photo above, which of course I've yet to use. But I've been thinking of peppermint ice cream for the holidays could be a lot of fun, so hopefully I'm able to make that happen.
The boy even got in on the present action, opening one of his favorites, his mandoline, which he has actually made use of.
Before the wedding, I wasn't too sure about the idea of a morning after brunch. But I'm definitely glad it happened because it gave everyone a chance to be together one last time in a low key atmosphere before saying good-bye.

What are your thoughts on having a morning after brunch for weddings?
