How To: Have Your Wedding Reception at Home
There's no place like home, so what better venue for your wedding than your humble abode?
Having a wedding at home can be a unique and personal way to celebrate your special day. Here are some steps you can follow to help you plan your home wedding:
Set a budget:
Determine how much money you have to spend on your wedding and allocate funds for various expenses such as decorations, food, and entertainment.
Choose a date and time:
Decide on a date and time for your wedding that works for you and your guests. Consider the season and weather conditions, as well as any other important events that may be happening.
Create a guest list:
Decide on the number of guests you would like to invite and create a list. Make sure to include enough seating and space for everyone.
Prepare the space:
Decide on the location for your reception, such as your garden, patio or even your living room, and plan how you would like to decorate it. You can use flowers, candles, and other décor items to create a beautiful and romantic atmosphere. Check out our Weddings section, where we stock a variety of must-haves for your wedding, including the timeless, classic and elegant Chiavari Chair Limewash, an ideal seating option for you and your guests.

Send out invitations:
Send out your invitations well in advance of your wedding date so that your guests have plenty of time to plan and RSVP.
