Planning a wedding reception can be a big challenge. With so many different moving parts and things to think about at the reception, combined with other elements of the wedding, an important element of a wedding reception can be forgotten. Soo Here are some things people forget about when planning a wedding

1. Consider your Venue Decor

As soon as possible, visit your reception hall and make a note of what is out there. Think about lighting, entryways, decorations, and color. You may not like the look of these features, so make a list of items that you will use or items that you want to hide with ornaments. All these elements should be considered if you want a cohesive visual reception.

2. Create Floorplan Rough

The layout of your plan is important. You want to have enough space between tables to get around. Think about where it will work on the big day, such as coffee table, buffet table, dance floor, DJ booth or stage, and taking measurements. This will ensure a place you will not feel claustrophobic. You can also check with your place to see if they have a layout example that you can use and modify it to suit your needs so that the space will not be a problem.

Are you using a DJ or a band for your wedding entertainment, it is important that you are prepared for them in advance. Make sure that you have everything ready to go, including the stage and the power to the players. Many places will offer a 'power distribution' for the band. It may cost a little money, but it will create the possibility of very low power failure. Also asked the band how much space they need for their equipment so it can sit on stage with them or nearby. If the band's energetic, small stage can lead to performance very excited for your guests. With the power and the big stage space, this band could focus on ensuring the performance runs smoothly and everything stays on schedule.

5. Think About Drinks

Cocktails are a staple of any wedding reception. Whether you're planning a wedding reception with an open bar or cash bar, think about the drink of your choice. No need for a full bar: several types of wine, some types of beer, and some kind of spirit is all you need. You can even choose to make one or two specialty cocktails and limit your bar to them. Also, do not forget about the non-alcoholic beverages!

6. Provide Little Comforts

Small touches like having a basket of slippers for women if they want to leave their heels and hit the dance floor, or a place to get a paper towel or hand sanitizer will go a long way in showing guests that you care. This is especially important if you are planning a wedding reception that will take place outdoors. If children will be at the reception, make sure that they have entertainment as well, such as crayons or toys for their age group.

7. Remember to Say Thank You

Featuring a token of appreciation for your wedding guests is very important. Do you send a card or let guests bring home their center, make sure that you express your gratitude to the people who join you on your special day.

8. Secure Power For Entertainment

Bands and DJs both require resources to be used during their performance. Be sure to secure these resources in advance. This is especially important if you have a reception outside, where power may be limited. If you have a generator for the band, be sure specifically calibrated to handle the musical equipment. Many generators are not designed for this function and will cause the music equipment to stop working in the middle of your reception. If possible, have the strength of the wall for a musician, because it is much more reliable.

9. Be Aware Of Time

Although your wedding is a special time for you and your family, many guests will be exhausted by the end of the reception. Many planners suggest keeping your receipts for four or five hours. This limitation will also save money. It also might be a good idea to have a shuttle service or store contact information in the hands of a taxi service in case any of your guests have too much fun.

10. Keep Your Entertainment In the Same Room

No matter what you have in your wedding, it is very important that everything is kept in the same room. Band or DJ, food, bar, booth photography, and other attractions should be in the same room. This is to prevent guests from spreading everywhere that leads to the dancefloor very dull and low energy on the dancefloor. Keeping your guests in one area to promote excitement, interaction and energy. If you have music in one room, a bar at the other, photo booth elsewhere, desserts and sweets elsewhere and cigar rolling out, the energy and excitement will dissolve very quickly. Many modes that claim to make 'different' feel throughout different regions acceptance often look great on paper, but fails in reality. If you have 150 people divided into different areas, you finally have something that feels more like five birthday party of a spectacular wedding.
