    Our end time is 10pm! The DJ is organizing a sparkler send off which will let guests know that the party is over!

    Our venue has us ending at 11:00! FIL's have planned to have an "after party" for family & close friends at their home which is about 5 minutes away from the venue.

    2am. That was the time we had to stop serving alcohol. We left shortly after but there was still some guests there.

    Mine will end at 9 or 9:30. Most of our guests are older family members that have an hour drive back home and we didn't want to keep them out longer.

    Our venue asks for everyone to be out/things be cleaned up by 11, so our reception will probably end around 10 or 10:30. But then we plan to continue celebrating elsewhere (:

    Our end time is also 10. I think the most common if your renting a public venue area

    Our reception has to end at 10, everyone gone by 10:30. Venue is in a residential neighborhood. Our wedding is on a Sunday, so I think people would want to end on the early side anyway.

    Our end time will be between 8:30 and 9:00. We plan to start saying our goodbyes and thank you's at 8:30 and it'll likely take all of the thirty minutes to get guests out the door so we can pack up whatever decor we have.

    Ours will end at 7p, getting married on Monday and want people to be able to get home at a somewhat decent hour since most will go to work on Tuesday.

    9:30 or 10 ish. Our venue said we have to end the party at 10 so we will probably have an after party downtown or something

    We initially planned an 11 pm end time, but things got pushed back a little with some venue issues - meaning the party was just really swinging at 11, so we extended everything (DJ, bar, shuttle) another hour and ended at 12 instead. Then we all went back to the hotel and hung out at the hotel bar for another 2 hours until the bar closed.

    We don't even have a set end time. Our venue is pretty lenient. But we might just set an acceptable time for guests to leave by but if they want to stay and party, they're more than welcome to. My parents are from Brazil, where the receptions usually start at 9 and go well into 3 am-- it's wild. So anything before 10 is way too early for us.

    Our ceremony starts at 330 the reception starts 4pm thru 9pm but the venue does have some flexibility as long as it's by 10 or so. The earlier works good for us as we leave very early morning after for Jamaica!! :+)
