Reception - Introduction

The reception is the most expensive part of your wedding and requires a great deal of
Reception
planning.  You will want to greet your guests and thank them for coming.  And the best way to do that in Baton Rouge is with a celebration.  Think of all the great parties and receptions you have attended in the past.  It's always the guest that make it something special.  A wedding reception is no different.  You want your guest to feel welcome, comfortable and appreciated.  Of course you want them to have a good time too. 

Look at your reception from beginning to end through your guests' eyes and you can't go wrong.  Shelter from rain and sun, food and drinks are always involved in any get together, but a wedding reception has some unique qualities and expectations that go with it.  Music, flowers, photography, the cakes and more are important parts.  There is also a traditional timeline of meeting, greeting, eating, cake cutting, dancing, and rice throwing that make receptions special.

What do I need to ask the caterer and the reception hall director?What is the time line?  How do you lay out the room?  What music should you select?  Do I need to rent anything?  This section will help you with all the above questions plus all those associated with the Reception.
