Our "Reception Checklist" Makes YOUR Wedding Planning Easier

From the unity candle to the napkins, there are thousands of details to remember when planning your wedding. When you book your wedding at the best wedding venue in Colorado, our team is ready to assist you with any questions you have about the wedding planning process. It's easy to get distracted with all of the details, so we have provided a tool to keep you focused on the major and minor decisions you'll be making along the way.



Use Our Reception Walk Through Checklist


One of the tools we offer to our brides is a Reception Walk Through Checklist. There are obvious wedding decisions you will make, such as the date of your wedding and the style of your gown. While there are several small details that don't come quickly to mind when planning a wedding, like the total number of tables you'll need at the reception, or even how many high chairs will be required. Our walk through checklist will help us know exactly what's necessary to keep your day moving smoothly.

Starting at the Beginning


  • Date of Event
  • Bride and Groom's Name & Number
  • Parents of the Bride and Groom
  • Time of Event


Set-up Descriptions


  • Guest Head Count
  • Quantity of round tables needed
  • Table Cloth Color
  • Napkin Color
  • Number of reserved tables for family or wedding party
  • Table Displays

Cake, Catering & Flowers


  • Who is the caterer
  • Beverages at the wedding
  • Will there be alcohol?
  • Who will be delivering the alcohol?
  • Name of the Florist


Make a Wedding Timeline

Your wedding timeline is key to making sure the day operates and functions as it should. As the day gets closer, take a moment and think about how you want the details of your day to happen. Your day will be a whirlwind of excitement, so having a timeline will help keep everyone on task.
