Your wedding reception is where you'll celebrate your marriage with your family and friends and it's a chance to show off your personal style. But with so many different styles to choose from, it can be overwhelming to decide which one is right for you. Follow these steps when it comes to planning your reception to help you choose the perfect style for your wedding reception:

Consider your venue and location

The first thing you should consider when choosing a style for your wedding reception is your venue. The style of your venue will play a big role in determining the overall style of your reception. If you're getting married in a rustic barn, a rustic or vintage style reception would be a great fit but if you're getting married in a modern loft, a contemporary or minimalist style reception may be more appropriate.

Think about your personal style

It's important to choose a style that reflects who you are as a couple. If you're a classic couple who loves timeless elegance, a formal reception with black-tie attire may be the perfect fit. If you're a laid-back couple who loves the outdoors, a rustic or bohemian style reception may be more for you. This is your time to let your personalities show, remember it’s your day so do what you feel is right!

Consider your wedding theme

If you have a specific wedding theme, you'll want to choose a reception style that complements it. For example, if you're having a beach wedding, a coastal or nautical style reception would be a great fit. If you're having a winter wonderland wedding, a cozy, intimate reception with lots of candles and twinkle lights would be perfect.

Don't forget about your budget

Finally, it's important to consider your budget when choosing a style for your wedding reception. Some styles, like a formal reception with elaborate decor and a sit-down dinner, can be more expensive than others. If you're working with a tight budget, a more casual reception with a buffet or food stations may be a better fit.
