Planning Your Fall Wedding

Posted on by

 

Fall wedding season is a busy time for everyone involved; the couple, caterers and event hall owners. Fall weddings offer beautiful photo opportunities without the heat of the summer or the cold of the winter. We have some helpful tips for planning your fall wedding!

  • While fall weddings aren’t as cold as winter weddings, there still is the potential for it to get chilly for guests and those involved. If your wedding is to be set outside and the reception inside, offer blankets or shawls to keep guests warm.
  • To make the bride’s dress pop in photos, integrate fall colors for the wedding parties. Colors like brown or burgundy are great fall colors to compliment the white of the bride’s dress.
  • To make sure your wedding isn’t too indicative of Halloween, mix in gourds and squash with pumpkins when it comes to decorating. They can make great centerpieces for guests at the wedding!
  • For flowers, choose in-season flowers that will complement the fall wedding. Flowers such as roses, sunflowers, dahlias, asters, zinnias and chrysanthemums make for beautiful and elegant bouquets and centerpieces.

Tips When Choosing a Banquet Hall

Posted on by

Banquet halls can be used for anything from wedding receptions to business meetings. Since there are so many different occasions for banquet halls, you want to ensure you are choosing the perfect hall. Here are some tips to finding the perfect banquet hall:

  • When choosing a banquet hall, you want to make sure the location is easily accessible for your guests. If the hall location is in a spot where people will have to commute far, you’ll find you won’t have as many guests.
  • As you plan your function, you need to consider how big of a guest list you’ll have. If you have a large guest list, but a small area in the hall, you’re going to run into problems. You want to choose a function hall that has enough space to accommodate your guests.
  • As you search for a hall, remember the interior of it. If you’ll be decorating for your event, you want to ensure that the hall will work with the decorating ideas you have in mind.
  • You want to make sure that the function hall is going to accommodate the set up you have for your event. You’ll have a seating plan, arrangement of food and depending on the event, a dance floor and stage. Does the hall you have in mind have room for all of this?
