4 Must-Haves For An Epic Wedding Reception

Weddings

23 Dec

Although there is no one right way to host a wedding reception, there are certain elements that set apart a “standard” reception and an epic one. If you’re looking to host a simple event without much fuss, then you’ll have fewer details to worry about. However, if you’re looking to throw the best wedding reception that everyone will talk about for years to come, then you’ll need to know the right steps to take.

Impressing your guests and creating life long memories comes down to ensuring that you have the most important must-haves. If you’re planning a wedding reception in the near future and want to show your guests a fantastic time, then make sure that you have the following things.

A Bar

Although alcohol isn’t necessary to have a good time, most people enjoy having a few alcoholic beverages at a wedding. There’s nothing like raising your glass to the newlyweds and enjoying a fun cocktail amongst friends and family.

It’s important to have a bar, or even several depending on the size of your wedding. Your bar should include beer, wine, and hard liquors. Make sure that you have plenty of mixers for whatever hard alcohol you provide. Don’t forget that there will be non-alcoholic drinkers present too, so remember to cater to everyone’s tastes!

Outdoor Space

If you’re having an indoor reception, then you should make sure your guests have somewhere to step out to. Whether they want to get away from the crowd for a minute or smoke a cigarette, it’s nice for guests to have an outdoor area to escape in. For extra points, make the outdoor space just as beautiful as it is inside. You’ll want plenty of beautiful decor, from flowers to lights.

Entertainment

What kind of a wedding reception would yours be without some good old fashioned entertainment! It’s critical that you provide some dancing tunes for your guests who want to dance.

In addition to a live band or DJ, you may even want to consider incorporating games and activities for the younger crowd too. If you need ideas, don’t be afraid to go online and find inspiration for ways to uniquely entertain your guests.

Delicious Food

Your guests will be hungry after the ceremony, and likely ready to eat some delicious food. Rather than just providing one menu for everyone, consider offering several options that cater to various tastes and preferences.

Before your wedding, you should ask guests if there are any dietary restrictions or requirements that you should know about. It will help your kitchen prepare for having everything ready ahead of time. Your guests will appreciate the effort on your part to accommodate their dietary requirements!
