Small reception

I agree with everyone about a private room at a restaurant. Great way to celebrate after the ceremony!

Booking a private room at a nice restaurant would be a great idea. Or you could host it at someone's house if they have a nice one and get some really nice catering to drop off enough food for the amount of people you have, then you could all stay as late as you want and have the ability to do more activities/games/etc. There's a lot of nice restaurants that can deliver, and at-home catering services out there now. I'd suggest doing some research into that in your area.

A nice restaurant would be a good idea. If it were me I would prefer somewhere private. You could also do a picnic or a bbq kinda thing too if your on a budget.

A nice restaurant is going to be your best bet.

Restaurant is a giod idea to have for the guests to enjoy after. Most italian restaurants will cater to you based on hoe many it can seat. Mandarin is great too since they can close off a section for your guests sitting more comfortably.

I also agree with a restaurant. Sometimes, they can book a private room (depending on numbers), so you can celebrate together with just your family.

Depending on where you live, you could find a river or lake cruise and do a celebration on there.

You could also do a small backyard BBQ if you have a family member or friend with a big enough yard.

You could also consider renting out a small cottage and go there for the weekend to spread the celebration out (depending on availability of family).

View quoted message Very true never thought of that. Thank you

How about a nice restaurant with a private dining room? You could go in your wedding clothes and celebrate in semi-privacy together.
