Look Into Banquet Rooms When Considering Venues For Your Wedding Event
There are many details that go into the planning of a large wedding
. In fact, some major events - including an engagement party, a bridal shower and a rehearsal dinner - are often quite big, and can be a huge undertaking for either the maid of honor or the groom's family. All too often, family members and friends forget that local banquet halls and reception sites are great places to hold engagement parties and bridal and rehearsal dinners.
Traditional wedding etiquette says that the maid of honor acts as a kind of committee chair for the other bridesmaids, and that at least one of the bridal showers should be organized and hosted by this group. Expenses are usually split among the maids; if their budget allows, they may choose to forget about the cleaning, cooking and decorating that a home-based shower calls for, and leave the work to professional event coordinators. A typical bridal shower can be a luncheon, champagne brunch or a tea with light snacks. If it fits the budget, utilizing all-inclusive banquet rooms or event planning services will relieve everyone from stress, as there are many other things to focus on when the big day is approaching.
Rehearsal dinners are traditionally hosted by the groom's family. In most cases this event will include the entire wedding party, the bride and groom's immediate family, the person who will be conducting the ceremony (and his or her spouse), and any out-of-town guests. This could be quite a big task, depending on the amount of guests and the size of the wedding.
Venues such as larger restaurants, hotels, private clubs and meeting rooms at local attractions such as a zoo or historical landmark all offer appropriate banquet rooms for these kinds of occasions. They can often accommodate small groups for intimate gatherings or much larger parties numbering 100 or more guests. The benefit of renting a banquet hall is the fact that all the staff and the entire space are entirely dedicated to you - this is an especially exciting option if you have a lot of guests.
Banquet halls frequently offer full use of expert event planners, who can assist in the formation of a theme, menu design and itinerary. With the staff of the facility, you need not worry about set-up, and they are able to provide cash bars, catering, wait staff, entertainment, and of course, clean-up as well. This takes the burden of putting together these events off the shoulders of already busy families and friends. There is also the advantage of having an enjoyable and efficiently run event for all your guests - a complete package of memorable celebration for all involved.
So, if the thought of hosting a shower or rehearsal dinner in your home has you running in frantic circles - consider running to a banquet hall instead.
