"Hi I'm Becky Sosa with Stress Free Events and I'd like to talk to you about wedding reception decoration ideas. There are a lot of different things that you can do at your wedding reception for your wedding decorations. Consider what it is that you want your guests to feel at your reception. Are you looking for something that is elegant, something that is dark with lots of candle light and basic flowers. Are you looking for something that is fun and funky, something that brings in lots of color, lots of unique and different ideas. Consider these things when you are deciding how to decorate for the reception. Also consider your venue. Know what they are going to allow. Some places will not allow you to tape or hang anything on the walls. If that's the case then your decorations are going to have to come from the floor up and you are going to have to consider that when you are making your decorations. Things like hanging drapes and such like that at the reception are going to have to be put on pipes if you want that look. Otherwise just use the elements that are already there. Decorate them with flowers and tulle and things like that. These are just some ideas on decorating for a wedding reception."
