Reception ideas for a small group of 8-10?

1SamanthaJones

Hello, Does anyone have any suggestions for places to go and have a nice sit down meal after our wedding with our small group of guests? We were thinking of getting changed out of our formal wedding attire, so suggestions for somewhere for a nice meal and drinks would be most welcome!

Maggianos? We aren't renting a room. We just made a dinner reservation for a party of 15.

Where are you getting married and what type of cuisine where you thinking about?

Thanks for your replies! What are the costs like at maggianos? We are getting married at the valley of fire, 4pm ceremony, then hoping to do a photo tour of the strip and then head to somewhere a bit special. The menu would need something suitable for vegetarians but other than that we are quite open to suggestions! We like most cuisines, we would probably hope to keep the cost to about $50 a head but I don't know if this is being too cheap as we've not done much research into average costs!

Hey!

I'm doing a grand canyon ceremony.  My group will be 9 to 15.  I rented the renaissance room at the stratosphere (private room) because they offer private dining for groups of 8+.  The strip view is nice.  Minimum is a package of $85 a person.  I have 4 veggies in my party, so I know they can deal with that.

I'm also doing a dinner at maggiano's the night before, they have good veggie options and their menu ranges from 25+/pp.

You could also do a private room at wicked spoon, bacchanal or the buffet @ wynn.  it would be in your price range, but they do have minimums ...

HTH!

Hi I booked Canaletto in the Venetian for a private room with 11 in total . I've linked to some posts that include some of the other restaurants I looked at .

It's $21 a person if you have a dinner reservation (not renting a private room.)
