Wedding Menus              Wedding Timeline

Congratulations on behalf of Millennium Caterers on your upcoming nuptials. This is a wonderful time in your life but it also can be very stressful if the proper steps are not planned. Hopefully with our wedding checklist, Millennium can help relieve some of your anxieties.

After getting engaged, the first thing you need to do is get a good sense of the type of wedding you want. The following questions serve as a guideline for discussion. It’s also important to decide what’s most important to you. Once you have put together a budget – you will then be able to prioritize where you want to spend your money.

These are just some questions you should start to answer before you talk to any wedding professionals. 

1. Do you want the traditional wedding / reception, or something different such as a private ceremony and larger reception, or one destination wedding and party afterwards?

2. Do you want an afternoon or evening wedding? Formal or informal? 

3. Do you want the reception to be: indoor or outdoor, or both? If you want outdoor only, how will rain and bathrooms be handled?

4. Do you want traditional reception (i.e. receiving line, toasts, first dance, garter and bouquet throwing etc.) or just a party?

5. Do you want sit down dinner, buffet dinner, or just standing reception?

6. Do you have a maximum number of guests you will accept?

7. Do you want everyone in one room during the meal or can they be seated in several rooms?
