How can we cut costs for our reception?

Outdoor Wedding Receptions

If you're on a budget, consider having your reception at a venue that is already equipped to handle such events. If you have to separately rent tables, chairs, table linens, dinnerware, glassware and flatware, the costs can add up very quickly. Often brides plan an at-home or outdoor wedding trying to save money, but after hiring waiters and renting equipment, it comes out to cost more than a inexpensive wedding reception at another location.

This is excellent advice! I recived many quotes on weddings and it was almost half the price to have it at a venue then to have it catered. Especially when you have to throw in all the extra rental fees.
