Once the Ceremony is Over

August 23, 2011 by sevendegrees

When you have set your wedding date you are going to find that this is the beginning of what is going to be the long process of planning every aspect of your special day right down to the last little detail. While planning the ceremony itself is a vital part of the whole picture, most people already have a good idea of not only what they want, but where they want their ceremony to be held.

In fact for most couples getting married have very few problems with this part of their special day, the fun comes in when they start to think about what comes after the ceremony is over. Yes, we are talking about the wedding reception. While the wedding is without a doubt the most important part of the day, the reception is going to be the highlight of the day and the part that you are likely to invite the most people to.

Even if you have a very small and intimate wedding ceremony, there is nothing that says you can't invite all of your family and friends to a fantastic reception dinner and party after the ceremony is over. If you are going to go all out and throw a big reception, the first thing you are going to have to do is decide how many people you think you want to invite. The number of people you want to invite is going to have a definite effect on where you can have your reception.

The next thing you need to look at is as they say in real estate circles is "location, location, location." You are going to need to find a location that is close enough to the place you are having your ceremony that everyone can get their relatively quickly. It also needs to be very easy to find, you do not want to pick anywhere that is so hard to find that half your guests end up getting lost one the way there.

If you have a theme or are looking for a place that you can create your own vision of the perfect reception, you are likely to find that most hotels that have banquet rooms are not likely to be the ideal choice. You are going to find that not only will they limit you as to how much you can decorate their banquet rooms, but that they also have very strict time limits and noise limits, meaning the DJ or band you hire will have to be toned down.

Similar rules may apply at most of the different lodges who rent out their facilities, plus here you are likely to find that you are going to be very limited on the number of people you can invite. What you really need is a place that will give you a complete blank canvas upon which to paint your wedding reception so that it is exactly what you have in your mind's eye. A place that is big enough that you can invite all of your friends and family and that is very easy for them all to find.
