4 Alternative Wedding Reception Venues You Can Try

Published

on

When it comes to weddings in Nigeria, couples have two options: indoor or outdoor receptions. The options for alternative wedding reception venues are very limited, but we’re limited by our imagination.

Maybe you don’t want a hall like everybody else, or you can’t afford it. Don’t worry, we made a list of alternatives for your wedding reception that are quite cheap too.

Restaurants

After the wedding ceremony, everybody can just head down to your favourite restaurant. Some restaurants will let you hire out the space for a couple of hours. You can pick one that has space for dancing to your favourite songs.

Beach

We love this trend because you can have both the solemnisation and reception in one place. There are so many beaches to choose from, and you can choose to just have a laid back beach party or hire out a private beach.

Backyard

If your family house has a backyard with enough space for your guests, this is perfect for an intimate wedding. With a few seats and decorative lighting, backyard weddings are romantic and cheap.

Parks

We mean that football field around your area, or an actual public park-either way, all you need is permission from the government, seats and a canopy to get the party started.

While the bride and groom are the two most important people at a wedding, the fun that comes with your wedding is being able to celebrate and anticipate your big day with your closet friends by your side serving as bridesmaids and groomsmen.

Bridesmaids are considered friends of the bride, who make the day colorful.

You might think you can just call a few friends, assign them a bridal title, and call it a day, but there are a few other things you’ll want to consider before you assemble your bridal train.

1.   Know The Number Of Ladies You Need On Your Train

Usually, the number of bridesmaids you have is determined by the size and type of your wedding.  it is important to keep your bridal party proportionate to your number of guests. For instance, 12 bridesmaids for a wedding with 50 guests is a bit outrageous.

2. Consider Their Personalities (Is she a bridesmaid Material)

Before you choose your maids, think about how the entire wedding party will get along. If one person on your list has temperamental personality and tends to rub it on people the wrong way, that’s the potential drama you will want to avoid if you can. Instead, aim for a group of bridesmaids awho are friendly, cordial, and can transition easily between groups.

3. What Is The Budget For Bridesmaid

Sometimes, being a bridesmaid might be expensive. In most cases they pay for their dresses, makeup and accessories and sometimes the bridal shower. So consider all the ladies you have in mind first and be sure they are willing and able to commit to this expenses.

4. What Will They Be Wearing

Every bridesmaid will definitely want to look good on that day, but not all of them will like the particular dress you might want them to wear. If you want them to wear a sleeveless dress for instance, some of your maids might not be comfortable in that. So before you choose the ladies, know their sense of style and know what all of them will be comfortable wearing so you don’t have problems after selecting the ladies.

5. Don’t Be Tempted To Include All Your Siblings

Even if you have three sisters and your fiance has four, you should try not to  include everyone in the wedding party. Your siblings will have other major responsibilities on that day, so try to leave some of them out of the wedding party so that they won’t always have to excuse themselves from the bridal party table.
