Wedding Reception Ideas




Probably one of the first discussions had in the planning of a wedding is the one about the wedding reception, because there all your friends are going to be and they will have the first real contact with what is in fact your wedding. Almost any couple wants an original wedding, and it implies a reception to match. The word reception can sound almost like too for many people. However, wedding receptions not all about red carpets on the bride’s entrance scene. Even small wedding reception can have original taste, can be beautiful and stylish at the same time.




Many couples decide to have theme weddings, themes that are respected at the wedding ceremony and also at the wedding reception. The theme can be inspired from everything you want. It can be a Scottish, Italian or Greek wedding, it can have a medieval theme or it can be a beach wedding without actually being at the beach. You can also do a wedding with a specific season theme. It is all up to you.



Because even if you have help in planning the event, a wedding is very difficult to organize, here are some wedding reception ideas you can use for your own wedding, or they can inspire you to develop you unique wedding party.

A nice idea would be to serve your guests with a cocktail, a colorful one if possible, for example, a pink cocktail for women and blue one for men. Talk to two separate waiters to serve men and women at the reception. Even more spectacular would be to organize an ice bar with lights where guests will be served with cocktails and maybe some snacks or appetizers that are fitted with the drinks.

The decor has to be an impressive one that should make your guests feel like entering a different world, one that promises beauty, love and fun. So the reception room must be impressive decorated, and if you have chosen an autumn theme, you can use wicker trays and special effect lighting. This can actually be a very good wedding reception idea.




Music is one of the most important elements at a reception. The music played at a wedding party is the one that sets the mood and if the music is bad, the whole party is compromised. The songs you choose for the reception should be warm, happy, but they also should be suitable for a wedding and in accord with your own preferences. For a romantic wedding classical music or classic greeting are suitable. However, you can decide for more modern love songs. Still you do not have to exaggerate with the slow music. After all it is a wedding and people want to have fun.

    Hi there
    Very nice site. a lot of information that I found very useful. sometimes fun. sometimes too modern for my own taste. But I can find really nice ideas since I lack them so much. And I am so worried about my wedding reception. I want it to be nice. And I’m looking for new ideas, something that I didn’t see at other weddings I attended. I think I found a very nice one. The one with the cocktails for women and men. I like it because it’s so easy to practice. I mean, it’s easier than the ice bar. Another of the ideas that I like from here is about the theme. To be at the beach, but not really there. I think I can do that.
    thanks for helping me
