What Does Your Reception Space Look Like?

Lisa, on January 25, 2021 at 9:37 AM Posted in Wedding Reception 0 43
Last week, I asked about everyone's ceremony locations, so this week, I'd love to see your reception locations! Are you holding your reception in the same location as your ceremony, or different? Will your reception be in a grand ballroom? Or in a beautiful outdoor setting? Or in a rustic barn? Share a picture of where you are planning to host your wedding reception!

    Our ceremony and reception are being held at the same place. Figured it would be a lot easier and both locations are gorgeous! They also have an indoor ceremony thats breathtaking so if the weather isn’t on our side we can still have a nice ceremony spot. (I’m an over thinker so having a nice outdoor and indoor ceremony location def takes off that added stress).

    Oh my gosh, both of these spaces are gorgeous!! Love the chandeliers in the reception room! I also really like how the seating at the ceremony is arranged in an arc rather than straight rows. I am also holding both my ceremony and reception at the same place - makes it a lot easier! That's great that there is an indoor ceremony option for you too, just in case weather doesn't cooperate. Very pretty, thank you for sharing!

    The outside garden, not having the ceremony here, but we will still use this area and set up some tables and bring lawn games.

    Thank you! I'm not sure yet, but I just know I want to incorporate using that area for something.

    We got married in July 2019 at a hotel. Our ceremony was in the lobby, cocktail hour was in a pre-function area, and the reception was in the ballroom. We could have had cocktail hour in the lobby as we'll, but we decided it wasn't worth it to pay $1,500.

    I don’t have great pictures on my phone. Our ceremony and reception were in different places. I fell in love with the exposed brick and beams in our space. There was original hardwood floors in the cocktail hr space.

    I'm sure you'll find something fun to use that space for! Cornhole, outdoor lounge/seating area, fire pit (if allowed by venue), etc.

    Ours is also in the same place as our ceremony (an urban winery in Chicago). I love the vibe, and the wine bottle-lined walls are so gorgeous. I can't wait to make an entrance going down that winding staircase Smiley xd .

    😮 Oh my gosh, that stairwell!! Love it! Is there an additional space at the top of the stairs that you get to use for your reception as well? The bottle-lined walls are a fun and unique decoration. I love how open the space looks. Very pretty! Thank you for sharing!

    It's crazy how that works out sometimes! Glad you were able to book the perfect venue for you. As soon as my fiance and I toured our venue, we immediately knew we had to book it. I'm so excited to get to host our wedding there.

    We actually came here on like our third or second date! So it was kind of cute to have had our reception here. I didn’t decorate much because there were tons of those chandeliers everywhere so kinda felt like I didn’t need to decorate

    Aw, very cool! I love that the restaurant is meaningful to you guys. I agree with you, I don't think that you really needed to decorate much in that space! Those chandeliers definitely dressed up the room.
