If dinner and dancing seem too cliché for a wedding reception, why not do brunch instead" Brides and grooms everywhere are jumping on this trend for many reasons. First, it can save you money because caterers, venues, and other vendors often offer discounts for events hosted during off-peak hours. Second, it?s an easy way to end the day early, if only to escape to your honeymoon sooner. Third, it?s a great option if you?re having a winter wedding and would like to maximize the daylight hours. And finally, brunch receptions are generally a much more casual affair, and that?s a good enough reason alone if it suits your style!
If this sounds appealing, brunch may be the best thing for your wedding reception. In that case, here are some things to consider when planning a daytime celebration. Choose an Appropriate Start Time

Brunch wedding receptions may not be for everyone, as there are two possible extremes in the scenario. Keep in mind that if you host a brunch, it has to be served between 11 AM and 2 PM, which means that you?ll need to get up really early if you?re to prepare for and host a ceremony. Not to mention, your guests will be in the same boat.
The other problem you might have is how to keep the party going. If you?re looking forward to your guests dancing into the wee hours, it?ll be hard to do so if the party starts around noon. On the other hand, if you wish to call it an early night, brunch is perfect for you. And if you don?t but love the idea anyway...
