When:
Pretty
important to decide when the wedding is going to
happen and get your reservations placed.
The busiest party months are May, June,
September, October and December, so plan extra early
for events during these months. |
|
|
|
|
|
Invitees:
The
guest list will help you determine how large a venue
you will require and will help you estimate your
costs. A
rule of thumb we regularly use is that about 80% of
the invitees will attend (in reality, we see some
pretty wide variances) |
|
|
|
|
|
Where:
Site
selection is also critical and dependant on the
number of guests expected.
Whether you’re using your church fellowship
hall, a banquet center, a hotel or a tent in the
back yard, you’ll need to decide early on in order
to get the space reserved.

Type
Are
you planning a sit down dinner, a buffet or a
cocktail reception?
Will it be formal or informal? Are you
serving any alcohol, if so will you have mixed
drinks as well as beer and wine?
All of these questions will need to be
answered early in the planning process as well. |

|
Level
of involvement
How
much of the planning, set up, breakdown etc do you
want to personally do?
Your level of involvement can range from
doing it all yourself to contracting everything out. |
