So for your welcome cocktail party, rehearsal dinner, wedding after-party and even your morning-after breakfast, your wedding venue can be the perfect place for all of those celebrations.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Would it be boring to have your welcome cocktail party at the same location as your wedding? Not at all, and here\u2019s why:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Your wedding venue has so much beauty to it on its own, so inviting your wedding guests to a day-before or night-before event lets them see the ballroom venue in a beautiful and elegant simplicity. Then, the next day when your wedding venue is transformed by your wedding floral designer\u2019s and wedding coordinator\u2019s d\u00e9cor, it adds even more Wow Factor to your wedding venue\u2019s look and style on the big day. You get to show off your wedding design vision as well, when you create different looks for your different wedding parties held at the same location.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Guests enjoy the ease of traveling to one event location. Even with GPS in their cars or on their phones, guests love not having to drive to four or five different locations on the wedding weekend, especially if they\u2019ve driven for hours to attend your New Jersey wedding. When guests can easily reach your wedding venue for these different events, or take your hotel\u2019s shuttle bus easily arranged to transport them, they enjoy your wedding weekend event all the more.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>You get to make the most of your NJ wedding venue\u2019s menu list. Instead of only getting to offer X number of the wedding venue\u2019s cocktail party stations, passed hors d\u2019oeuvres, entrees and desserts for one event, you get to enjoy perhaps all of them in the menus you plan for each of the wedding weekend events held at your wedding venue. So, if you wish for a themed menu for your rehearsal dinner \u2013 say, an Italian menu \u2013 you can then design with your wedding venue\u2019s chef\u2019s help, an entirely different theme of menu for your after-party. This pleases wedding couples and their families very much, since everyone can get their menu picks into a wedding weekend event.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Depending upon your wedding\u2019s season and date, and the range of your plans for your multiple wedding events held at your wedding venue, your site may be willing to grant you an extra station or perhaps upgrade your bar menu, as a thank you for booking additional wedding weekend events at their location. This is not always a guarantee, but it may be possible depending on your site\u2019s availability and on your menu and bar requests.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>You may get to enjoy your wedding venue at different times of day. Of course, the sun-streamed ballroom looks entirely different at breakfast than does the candlelight-filled ballroom at night for your evening wedding reception, giving you the best of all times of day for your wedding weekend celebrations, opening up more floral d\u00e9cor options to best accent your wedding ballroom space, as well as perhaps better use the outdoor spaces of your wedding venue \u2013 like holding your welcome cocktail party in the venue\u2019s wedding gardens during the warmer afternoon hours on a late fall or spring day. Again, you get the most from your chosen wedding ballroom\u2019s grounds when you plan diverse events at the same space.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Every couple inviting their guests to a New Jersey wedding wants to create additional wedding dinners and parties that treat their wedding guests to the best dining in New Jersey, since we\u2019re known for our fine cuisine, in stunning event venues that set the stage for an enjoyable and unforgettable event during the wedding weekend.
