Finding a venue or location for your wedding reception is an important part of planning your wedding. Wedding reception venues are often in demand, so you will want to find one as soon as possible. There are different types of venues and locations to fit the style of your wedding reception.

1. Country Club

   • A country club is a traditional venue for a wedding reception. A country club often offers rooms that are large enough to accommodate guests, but still may manage to seem an intimate setting. The country club provides you with a room, dining options -- buffet or a sit-down dinner -- table setup and dance floor. The country club may also offer a view of a golf course for a beautiful setting and provides many photo opportunities for the bridal party.

   Hotel Ballroom

   • Many hotels offer grand ballrooms that cater to large formal weddings. Hotels often offer packages that include the ballroom, dining and other aspects of your wedding planning, including flowers, music and other wedding services. Some hotels even offer a wedding planner on staff to assist you in planning your special day. The hotel will also help with providing rooms and travel arrangements for your guests. A number of hotels also include a farewell brunch the morning after the wedding and complimentary honeymoon stays and packages.

   Restaurant

   • A small wedding or intimate wedding reception can be held in a restaurant. Many fine dining restaurants provide private rooms for wedding receptions to be held in. The restaurant can offer a sit-down dinner or buffet-style meal. A wedding reception at a restaurant is intimate and requires less planning and decorations. This type of wedding reception is perfect for small wedding receptions for only family, close friends and the wedding party.

   Banquet Hall

   • Banquet halls are a popular and affordable wedding-reception venue. Banquet halls are often centered around wedding receptions and feature people on staff who know exactly plan a wedding. The staff will assist in the planning of the food (sit-down or buffet meal), decorations, entertainment and setup. Banquet halls provide a large room that can be arranged for a small or large reception and a dance floor. Banquet halls offer wedding packages that are affordable and can be tailored around your wedding-reception needs.
