Wedding receptions call for elaborate planning. You would have to get everything right for your event to be a successful one. The two most important aspects of every reception are how to cut down cost and how to entertain your guests optimally.

The first thing you would have to do is to look for a cheap space. You can use the same place that you use for the wedding ceremony. Alternately you can find a location used or another purpose and then decorate it up for your occasion. It is usually cheaper to have a venue that serves food and provides music as well. It helps you reduce costs.

You would have to look for a place that has a nice backdrop for your guests as they take their meal. You can get a space which is used for other social functions and capitalize on the décor put up.

Discuss your budget with your cater. Let her know how much you have and then how many guests are coming. She can then be able to decide which meal type will suit your visitors and how many can be served.

For decor ideas, you can use silk flowers tied up. You can also use natural plants at the entrances. You can arrange them in the form of an arch or just place potted pants at the side of the entrance door.

The DJ you choose must be very versatile. He must be able to play all kinds of music so each guest becomes happy. He must also double as the DJ and be making the announcements.

Offer your guests many meal options. You can have a buffet and a sit down dinner at the same time. This way, your visitors will choose which one best suits their preference.
