Wedding Ceremonies and Wedding Cake Displays

by

Wedding cake placement should be a top priority. You have spent a lot of time planning and designing your cake and you would like to make your guests enjoy the wedding cake. A beautiful cake deserves to have its own spotlight. Wedding cake can be placed at the entrance of the dining hall. This allows guests to marvel at the cake on their way into the reception. If you spend a lot of money on the wedding cake you should make it a centerpiece of the wedding by giving it a special table.

A wedding cake is more than just a dessert. It should be placed on a separate table. Brides should consider their cake as part of their decor and a reflection of the bride and groom’s personal style.

Using an event planner can help brides remember the little details. Club Venetian hosts a wide array of events such as wedding ceremonies and receptions, high-end birthday parties and distinguished corporate events. The best weddings are those where the bride found a little help with the planning and organizing.

How to Find a Good Reception Hall for your Wedding

by

Club Venetian

Your wedding is one of the most important events of your life, and the reception is just as big a deal. With so many options for wedding and reception venues, you should carefully plan and consider what you require for your own wedding reception hall. Consider the following aspects as you seek the perfect wedding reception venue:

  1. Speak to other wedding planner and couples that have some experience using prospective halls. If the hall you are interested in can provide you with references, it is the first sign that they have experience hosting wedding receptions; speak to the referees and find out both good and bad aspects of the hall so that you can be prepared for what you will have to deal with.
  2.  Manager of the Reception hall – The reception hall should have a competent and agreeable manager to support you as you plan for the event. Things like lighting and decor, seating and catering should all be considered, and you should find out if the manager is available before and during your wedding reception.
  3. Location – Ensure that the location of your reception hall is safe and that there is ample secure parking for your guests. Consider the safety of the location even during the night, and asses the surrounding businesses and homes, parking and lighting. Also remember to cater for any of your guests that may be handicapped or on a wheelchair.
  4. Additional items – Prepare for any additional aspects that you will want to include in your wedding reception e.g. a stage, a dance floor, fireworks, video presentations etc. If the hall itself does not have these things, they should know where you can get them at affordable prices. Have a list of these additional items before you visit the hall so that you can make provisions for them in advance.
  5. Hygiene – Your wedding reception hall should be clean and well kempt. A respectable hall will be well maintained, and offers a little more assurance that your event will be well hosted. Take note of the minor details, like how many overhead bulbs are working, and hygiene levels in the kitchens and bathrooms.

Even with the above list, there are several other considerations that you must have in mind as you choose the venue of your wedding reception. You may, for example, prefer an outdoor reception, or your caterer may need more than is available at a specific venue. If your hall of choice can satisfy the provisions listed above, that is the first step to a successful event to commemorate your marriage.

Catering for Business Events

by

This aspect of catering provides food for business meetings and corporate events. There are many competitors working in this form of catering owing to its high demand.

Advantages:

– This form of catering is profitable throughout the year, and does not depend on other factors like holiday seasons.

– It provides an opportunity to be recognized so that as future events come up, corporate clients will be willing to hire you again.

Disadvantages:

– Business meetings are often inclusive and designed to cater for everyone. The caterer is hence restricted to serving foods that are generally accepted.

There is a lot of competition in this market, with caterers competing amongst themselves and with restaurants that offer deliveries for business lunches and meetings.

Financial Tips for your Banquet

by

As you plan to host an event to commemorate a special circumstance, it is important that you carefully consider the organization and management of your budget to ensure the success of your event. Regardless of financial limitations, you should be able to fully utilize your budget by employing the following tips:

In scheduling a day to hold your event, choose a weekday instead of a weekend. Most rental locations and halls are more expensive over the weekend.

In the same way, the time of day that your event will be scheduled for has implications on the budget. Schedule your event for the ‘non-peak’ hours of the banquet hall, where the peak hours represent times when the most guests visit the hall. If you are planning for an event in advance, you are in a better position to bargain on the cost of renting a location.

Once you have a location, use creative ways to deck the hall. Pick cheaper flowers that will still work to beautify the hall, distributing them well across the room to create the mood that you have in mind.

Offer the best menu that you can to your guests from an affordable caterer. If there is a place that you enjoy eating, ask if they offer catering. Use ingredients that are available locally, and avoid foods that you would have to import. Serve a respectable 5-course banquet without fussing over too many different types of food, and ensure that the food you serve will appease the tastes and appetites of your invitees.
