Wedding Reception Location Must-Haves

If you want a dreamy experience, browse the app to find the perfect wedding venue for your vows and reception. However, there are a few things to think about before you make any final decisions.

What are the unique features available? Are you looking for historic architecture to make your wedding venue special? How about an outdoor space to exchange the vows? Whatever your vision may be, it's best to be thorough about your search and don't be hesitant to ask the host.

Do you need privacy? Needless to say, outdoor wedding venues don't offer a lot of privacy compared to indoor spaces. If you're having your ceremony in a famous park, you may find a passerby video recording your ceremony. Consider the privacy that a venue provides and weigh if this is important or if you're okay with a little less privacy in exchange for the beauty of the outdoors.

How accessible is the venue? Accessibility is one of the major considerations that you should make when picking a venue. This is especially important if you're expecting guests flying from out of town or even out of the country. Are there any public transportation options to get to and from the venue? Is accommodation in the area available? You want to make the experience as hassle-free as possible for all the parties involved.

Planning Your Wedding Reception

Planning the wedding venue is more than simply thinking about the theme and food. You need to consider the guest count, wedding cake, catering, and many other factors. Whether you're doing the planning yourself or hiring a wedding planner, here are some useful tips to help bring the event together.

Create the Guest List – Whether celebrating at the botanical gardens or an event center, you should ensure enough room for all your guests. The guest count also directly affects your costs and overheads, so be choosy with who you invite.

Plan the Seating – Be hands-on with the seating arrangement since you know the guests better than anyone. Obviously, you'll want to group people who know each other in the same area so that everyone will be comfortable interacting with each other.

Choose the Wedding Cake – Usually, couples stick to the wedding theme and build the cake around it. However, you have the option to personalize your cake to suit the venue and your style. For example, at waterfront wedding venues, you could have a nautical-themed cake with buttercream frosting.

Plan For Special Moments – Get your photographer and videographer to cover all the special moments like the cake cutting, first dance, bouquet toss, and more.

Wedding Reception Hidden Costs

While you may want to put a chunk of your money into the ceremony, the costs related to the reception may surprise you. The best wedding venues also have hidden costs that can upset your bank balance. Let us look at a few ways you can save money and still have a dream celebration.

Have you considered the service fees?

You will think of the rentals, caterers, and all other expenses but may forget the service fees. Service charges are usually in the range of 15% to 22%, depending on the cities, days, and timings. Be sure to set aside some budget for these expenses and to try and negotiate them with the venue owners.

Finalize the venue to save money.

Half the battle is won when you secure a fabulous venue on the Giggster app. You can start perusing listings as low as $19/hour and get the rental costs out of the way. One of the first things you should do is secure your space as early as possible, as this may lead to discounts.

What about overtime charges?

If the reception party goes on for longer than planned, you will most likely be charged overtime fees. It's necessary to negotiate the rates, and confirm all time limits before you pay anything additional.
