Free Wedding Plan Tips: Where to Hold a Wedding Reception
Almost any location would be a nice place for a wedding reception, depending on the tastes of the bride and groom.Basically, you want to make sure your guests will be as comfortable as possible, but ultimately the reception can be held anywhere you want it to be!
Ideally you will want to make sure the place is free of insects or other pests, extreme temperatures, and anything else that would make guests uncomfortable.You want to provide plenty of seating, and make guests as comfortable as you can.
If you want to hold your reception outdoors, you can certainly do so.Just be sure to provide adequate seating, a mechanism for keep pests like mosquitoes and stinging insects at bay, and shelter in the event of bad weather.Tents are a good way to have this shelter available, and they can also provide some protection for the food and beverages.
Indoor locations should be within a few miles of the wedding so guests don’t have a long way to travel.The reception is often held on the same premises as the wedding.For example, if the wedding is held in a church, the reception is sometimes held in the basement or banquet hall.
When a wedding is held at home, the reception is also usually held there.The reception may be held indoors, or it might be held in the back yard if there isn’t enough room inside.
If you choose a non-traditional location for your reception, such as an outdoor location on a beach or by a lake, be sure the location can be properly maintained.It may be difficult to provide enough seating, adequate temperature control, and pest control.This is something you need to keep in mind when choosing the location, so don’t forget.The decision for the location is yours, but please keep in mind the safety and comfort of your guests.
Free Report From Stephen Pierce: Managing Your Business Fundamentals
Stephen Pierce is an internet multi-millionaire who, with his wife Alicia, runs an endless empire of online businesses and three different coaching clubs. He is known as one of the powerhouses of the internet and teaches others to replicate his success.
It is an honor to be able to call him coach, mentor, brother in the Lord, and friend. His heart to serve others with a spirit of excellence shines through in all he does. To download his report "Managing Your Business Fundamentals", go to the bottom of this post!
Here is a brief background look at this marketplace giant of the internet marketing world.
The Path of Failure to Success
Stephen Pierce didn’t start out successful. He managed to blow what few opportunities that came his way on the mean streets of DC. He had no future and no hope.
When Pierce was kicked out of high school at age 16 he thought it was the best thing that could have happened to him and felt liberated. He kicked open the door of the school building and never returned to school. Then he immediately set out and did what dropouts usually do: look for trouble. And when there wasn’t any trouble to be found, he made trouble.
After a couple of years of deliberation Stephen Pierce was caught in the middle of a street fight among a couple of gangs of thugs after a drug deal had gone bad; a bullet ripped into his leg and he fell over, not knowing if he’d live or die.
He was whisked to the hospital but spent a long time laying on the gurney looking up at the harsh lights. He didn’t have insurance, didn’t have a support system, no one believed in him anymore because he had been too good at being bad for too long.
Right then Pierce knew he needed to stop blaming everyone in his world for his problems and start claiming the future he knew he deserved instead of just waiting for it to happen.
The doctors treated him but left the bullet in his leg. Pierce assumed this was because he didn’t have insurance, and they probably expected that he wouldn’t survive much longer anyway, but the bullet is there and it remains a symbol of where he came from and reminds him to be grateful.
He Turned His Life Around And Went Bankrupt
Stephen Pierce spent the few years turning his life around only to go bankrupt. He had started one business after another and they all tanked. Even though he wasn't hanging out in gangs or dealing in drugs he was completely disowned by family because they couldn’t put up with his business dreams anymore and thought he should get a real job. No one took his calls. He was told that everything he touches turned to dust.
After finally filing for bankruptcy in the late 1990s he literally became homeless. An acquaintance let him sleep in his office at night. Pierce borrowed a computer and an internet connection and started to learn about this thing called the internet.
He discovered he had a knack for picking out stocks. After a year of giving his stock tips away for free on a forum, and discovering his tips were worth $725K profit to anyone who had followed them, he started a membership site even though he didn’t know how to put together a website. He sent out an email to the 1,200 people on his email list and waited. After that first $350 order came in several minutes later, the momentum didn’t stop. Pierce made $500K that first year and now, ten years later, grosses $10 million per year selling products on several websites as well as a lucrative speaking career.
Pierce isn’t content just selling products and relaxing in his mansion, however. He and his wife travel around the world teaching people how they can live their dreams as well.
I consider it to be a gift from God that I have been able to attend his internet training sessions at his house with other students in our common business venture.

Christian Music Ministry With Chris Lee
Introducingthe Christian Music Ministry of Chris Lee, Be Phonic Music Group's latest addition to their new indie label:
From his humble beginnings to touring with the legendary Michael English, Chris Lee is starting to make a name for himself in the world of Christian music. This soft spoken man from Washington, D.C. offers a soulful offering of praise and worship.
This Christian music ministry journey started for Chris at the young age of five, touring the east coast and singing with his family. With church, revival, and conference ministry, Chris attests these experiences cemented the cornerstone of his artistry. His approach to stewardship anchored him as he pursued his own music outreach.
With a new footing at a local church in Ashburn, Virginia, Chris was gifted with the tools to become stronger in his faith. He befriended Danny Bunnelle; a bright and talented music minister. Danny recognized Chris’ talent and took him under his wing.
Four years quickly passed, and Chris was ready for bigger things. With the help of Danny and others, Chris recorded a demo CD and contemplated a move to Nashville.
The turning point came one Sunday service. A special guest was speaking that morning, and his message was entitled: Your Miracle Moment (the moment in which God has true blessings for us, but we must surrender ourselves and believe that He is in control; then and only then can faith, meet the miracle.) In a matter of months, Chris and his wife Katie packed up their belongings, prepared their friends and family and made their way to Music City.
Once in Nashville, some doubt crept in. But, this would pass as the common story of sacrifice and dreaming would soon make a transformation into accomplishment and reality. Katie, now Chris’ wife of 10 years, was researching some job opportunities on the internet and stumbled upon the website of a well known Christian singer named Michael English. Michael was looking for vocal talent for a possible singing group he was planning to assemble. Katie immediately saw this as an opportunity and approached Chris with the news. With great encouragement, he was convinced to apply.
One week later, Michael called to say how impressed he was and graciously invited Chris to perform at one of his local concerts. In 2003, he began touring with Michael full time. Chris feels tremendously grateful to God for sending such a meaningful professional and personal opportunity to work with Michael English.
These are exciting times in the Chris Lee camp. He has just finished the recording of his self-titled, debut album. The Christian music ministry that Chris shares is praise and worship of the highest order, imbued with surrender and a musical representation of the fruits of the spirit. “I am eager to continue traveling on my own, and sharing God’s love and forgiveness to the broken. I believe this new CD will touch people on a personal and intimate level, as it has already done in my life.”
Chris is currently accepting appearance requests at churches and performance venues, as he continues to share his music, reaching out to those who need to hear the message of God’s grace and mercy.
