We did that! In Cleveland too!
They had a porch with as gas bbq right of the kitchen/dining room. They kept bringing players in. Cutlets, hotdogs and burgers.
And an ice bucket with beers.

I hope you didn't say this to the chosson and kallah. What are they supposed to say after that? "Sorry, we really want sheva brachos."
I've agreed with most of your wedding posts, but I can't agree with this one. |
nah I didn't say that ... if anything I am taking their cue - part of the not wanting any was because they didn't quite want to be the center of attention for an entire week & they' also anxious to get back to israel
also seems like they're changing their minds with a lot of things as time goes on ... some more realistic than others
I was more wondering whether or not parents themselves made one - and you've answered my query [plus what is wrong with me being exhausted ?]

In some OOT communities, parents don't do Shabbos at all, or at least totally by themselves. Committees of friends handle it, and other sheva brachos. If it's a very small sheva brachos, parents might do it but still with some help, or partially catered, hiring a waitress, etc. Depends.

IIRC you only require 3 sheva brachos, of course most people do 7 but it's totally not a must.

It was the summer, but could have worked in the winter. I know someone who sorries a path to the grill through the snow. Grills holding an umbrella.
