The Wedding Reception
The wedding reception is a special occasion for bride, groom, and all their family and friends to break free from the ceremonies and have some fun. When planning a wedding reception, you should strive for your guests to have an unscripted and enjoyable time; after all, there should be some reward for sitting through a long ceremony! First and foremost, you will want to plan for some live music, or at least a DJ. Having unique wedding favors on the tables will keep your guests entertained as the food is being prepared. For the menu, have at least two choices, and a vegetarian option. Though traditional weddings favor foods like baked salmon or roasted chicken, there’s nothing wrong with barbequed steak and pizza either. Also remember to not forget the cake!
The wedding reception often is the most expensive part of a wedding, but if everything goes according to plan, should be a fun and memorable experience for more than just the bride and groom.
