Top 10 Questions – Wedding Reception Centre 2009-06-02

How many times have you picked up the phone to call a Reception centre to find out a little bit more about their location only to find yourself having a “mind blank” and can’t remember what to ask them! A common misconception about Reception Centre’s is that “everything” is included. These days most Reception centre’s have packages available and based on your needs and requirements most can tailor their packages to what you require, however the costs can vary for alterations to the packages and some may not alter their package at all.

This is where we have put together a fantastic list of common questions we always forget to ask when we are on the phone or even in person! So here it is, the top 10 Wedding Reception Questions:

1. What is not included in my package?
2. Do you have the necessary Licenses and Insurances and Health Permits?
3. What is your staff to guest ratio, and does it cost extra for more staff?
4. Does the headcount include wedding professionals such as DJ, Photographer etc and are there special rates for professionals?
5. Can i make partial payments over time?
6. Do you provide a written contract and guarantee?
7. What is your refund/cancellation policy?
8. What percentage is your deposit and when is it required to secure our booking?
9. Do you have special needs catered for? eg: special diets or wheelchair access?
10. What makes you better than “SUCH AND SUCH” reception centre? “such and such” put in your fave location eg: “loxley on bellbird”

A good Reception Centre will be able to answer all these questions plus more without hesitation. Why not download a copy of our “Common Questions to Ask” Ebook. Simply visit our Downloads page and download for free.

We are currently in the process of building a range of Free Ebooks to help with the organisation of your wedding day. Feel free to share them via email with your friends.

Happy Planning for your Day!

Assembling Wedding Invitations for Posting 2009-05-20

Before you begin to envelope your wedding invitations, place a stamp on each of the outer envelopes as well as on each of the Rsvp envelopes. Write or print your address on each of the response envelopes.

Lay out the pieces that go into an invitation eg: invitation, wishing well card, envelopes etc — one “invitation set” per pile. Each “invitation set” will go into its own envelope which should be addressed to a person or family.

After you’ve created piles of “invitation sets”, begin addressing both the outer and inner envelopes for each pile — one pile at a time. After you’ve addressed the envelopes, you can begin assembling each “invitation set.” Whilst writing the names and addresses is usually recommended for that personal touch, these days printing or using labels is widely accepted.

Begin assembling an “invitation set”.  Place the invitation on the top so the first thing your guest would see is the invitation; take a Rsvp card and its corresponding envelope. Place the envelope over the card so that its flap is facing you and hangs over the top of the card. Place this set behind the invitation.

Place the directions behind the Rsvp card with the church directions on top of the reception directions.

Place the wedding invitation into the inner envelope (which should already be addressed). Then, place the inner envelope into the outer envelope and seal the envelope. Once the envelope is sealed, the “invitation set” is considered complete.

Note: Do NOT seal an invitation and then attempt to write the names and addresses on it with the contents inside. Depending on the quality of the paper and its printing, the ink could transfer from piece to piece and leave imprints.

That’s it. It’s very simple if you organize it all BEFORE you try to assemble. You may find it easier if you place each piece into its own shoe box on the kitchen table. Then, grab a piece from each box and sit down at the end of the table and assemble the “invitation set.” Place the completed “invitation set” into another box and begin the round again. It’s a little more work, but it’ll keep you from forgetting anything.
