Choosing Your Wedding Reception Venue

Posted by in -Occassions

The time has come to book your wedding reception venue, but before you make a final decision, have you thought through your specific needs and preferences? All it takes is a little research to make the best choice of wedding reception venue and catering style, plus avoid any unpleasant surprises along the way. To help you out, here’s the low-down on catering and menu options.

Consider in-house catering if you:

  • Have limited time available to research and plan.
  • Are unsure about what you want and would prefer not to make too many decisions, leaving most in the hands of the venue’s wedding coordinator
  • Have asked a friend or family member to plan and coordinate your wedding for you.
  • Are organizing your wedding long distance.

Consider off-site catering if you:

  • Have up to a year before your wedding, or plenty of spare time for planning.
  • Love the idea of being involved in every decision, right down to the style of cutlery.
  • Want to supply any of the food yourself.
  • Plan to have a particularly unique wedding.
