How late is your reception going until...after party anyone?

Our reception venue says we have to start clean up at 11pm so we were thinking about having an after party if we purchase a house before the wedding. We decided against this because its going to be a long day already ... have to be up & leaving before 8:30am so we want to have time to ourselves at the end of the day.

I'm not having a typical 'wedding reception' ~ we're having a nice dinner following our ceremony. You better believe FH & I are bar hopping afterwards. We plan to stay out till the sun comes up :o)

Since our reception is ending at 6pm. we are hanging out with friends and family after wards. and meeting back up the next day to go to atlantic city

Yes we've considered throwing an after after party at a beach house if we choose to rent one rather than stay in a hotel. We are having a Friday wedding so we can enjoy the weekend with family and friends.

Our reception was over at 10, followed by an after-party in the hotel bar until 12, followed by an after-after-party in my sister's room until 3 am. We party hardcore!

My sister (also my MOH) picked up a few things at the store the day of and threw a simple party - by then the crowd had thinned out to about 15 people and it was the perfect way to wrap up the night.

Our reception package is 7 hours and ends at 1:00am! The end time wasn't anything we thought we cared too much about, because every venue we visited had simillar ends of around 11:00 or 12:00. We're really excited now about the extra time and feel lucky to have it! We'll also have the hotel bar for after that, but bars close in Michigan at 2:00am, so that will be the time we'll wrap it up by!

Our wedding venue allowed us to book up to 2am!! We ended up only booking until 12:30 though and that was long enough... I was ready to go celebrate my wedding night with my HUSBAND!!

We will probably go until 1am I think. We haven't really talked about it.

We had to be packed up and out by midnight. I really wanted to go to the bar after but my DH saw that I was drunk and had the BM drive us back to the hotel instead so we could get some lovin' in!

Have you checked into having your wedding at a Bed and Breakfast?

Our B&B allowed us to start at 4:30 with our ceremony and the have the party went on all night. All of our 60 guests stayed at the same inn, so htere were no other guests to disturb. Since we were hosting the event, we were allowed to supply our own alcohol. The DJ was a friend. I think the last dance was at around 2:00 a.m.

Good luck with your search.

Our hall is letting till 1am and then we need to be out by 2am eith wat we brought in out and were going to the hotel and depending on how we feel we might have a few drinks with the fam and friends that stay there!

We were thinking 11 or 12

My wedding is at 1 and I am kicking people out at 5 PM. We dont have dancing (none of my family or FH family are dancers) so we are going have a quick ceremony eat and do toast, cake, garder toss bouquet toss have another hour to mingle and then kick everyone out open gifts pack the car and depending on money and other stuff either head home or go to a nice hotel in seattle for the night.

Our reception ends at 11....we can stay in the room until 12. The After Party will be at the hotel bar, which closes at 2. The After After Party will be in our hotel suite!

I told FH I want to kinda wrap it up around 8pm to get to the hotel, have some more drinks and get freaky that night.

Our reception is from 7:30pm to 12:30am. No after party because by the time everyone gets back to the hotel by the shuttle it will be around 1ish so figure once everyone gets there they will want to be go to bed.

We have the idea that it will go all night long.. we have teh venue until 12 am and there are bars that are open until 1 + we wanted to get a hotel room...... but to be quite honest, we usually go to bed at 11 and that is a late night lol.. lame.

Our reception was 5-10..then we went to an adjoining bar til like 2:30 and karoked and danced with the guests who wanted to stay, it was ab last!

We have the venue til 1am but I can't imagine me lasting that long haha. We're thinking of having an after party at the hotel!

Ours is scheduled to end at 10:30 pm, followed by an after party at the Hotel's bar and then more than likely we'll have an after, after party in someone's room (Like Shannon's) when the bar closes at 2:00 am.
