How to throw a wedding party

Throwing a wedding party that's as fun as it is beautiful is all about planning. First, decide on a gorgeous wedding venue—some place that fits your creative vision for the wedding party, whether that's an understated, sit-down banquet with unbelievable food, or whether it's a fist-pumping dance party with the best DJ in town. Once the venue, date, and time are set, you can make decisions about food and drinks. Formal seating with full meals is one traditional option, though just as many people opt for a buffet-style spread now or even do light hors d'oeuvres throughout the event. If you're going to have live entertainment (typically a DJ or live band), book them as well. Most importantly, don't forget that the goal of the wedding party is to celebrate the newlyweds' love, so keep it fun and joyful!

Where to find wedding party venues

Wedding websites and search engines will acquaint you with wedding venues in your area, but Peerspace can do you one better. As the largest event venue platform, Peerspace's listings include unique wedding party venues, unlike any other wedding you've ever been to, from charming courtyards at breweries to hidden rooftop dance spaces at boutique hotels. The variety of options is incredible, but if you browse the available wedding party venues in your area, we're sure the creative inspiration will flow. Think outside the box. Your guests will thank you for it, and they'll be talking about your wedding party for years to come.

We've even got several articles right here at Peerspace, including creative wedding decorating ideas, focusing in on awesome wedding party photo backdrops, and even super creative last-minute wedding ideas that are sure to make an impression.

How to host a cheap wedding party

Wedding parties don't have to be expensive, and it's totally possible to host a cheap wedding party that's just as fun and beautiful as an expensive one. Peerspace has an entire guide on how to plan a wedding for under $1,000, but the main points are easy to summarize. For one, DIY as much as you can, especially in regards to the decor. Cut back on the guestlist, making it a more intimate gathering of family and close friends. Most importantly, you can save an enormous amount of money renting a stunning wedding party venue through Peerspace. You can also save a lot of money by streamlining your food and drink—opting for more shareable food and buffet-style options instead of a formal meal, and offering only beer and wine rather than a full bar.

  1. How do you start planning a wedding that feels meaningful and true to you?

The foundation of a memorable wedding isn’t luxury, it’s authenticity. Before you pick a venue or color palette, take time to think about what kind of experience you want to create. Is your vision modern and minimalist, rustic and natural, or elegant and classic? Your answers should shape every decision that follows. Start with priorities. Define what truly matters to you both: the setting, the people, the food, or the feeling. From there, let go of anything that doesn’t serve that vision. Weddings today are about crafting an atmosphere that reflects your relationship. To bring your ideas to life, focus on the sensory details. Think about how your day will sound, smell, and feel. Lighting plays a major role: soft candles or string lights add intimacy, while bold colors and statement florals bring energy. Personalized touches like handwritten vows or a favorite song as you walk down the aisle make everything feel uniquely yours.

  1. What are the best types of venues for a wedding ceremony and reception?

Choosing the right venue is one of the most impactful decisions in the planning process. It’s where the day’s emotion unfolds, where your photos are framed, and where memories are made. Your venue should complement your style and feel natural to your celebration. Some of the most popular types include:
  • Lofts and studios: Perfect for modern couples seeking flexibility and creativity.
  • Vineyards and gardens: Ideal for romantic, outdoor ceremonies surrounded by greenery.
  • Historic mansions or estates: Classic elegance and architectural charm in one setting.
  • Urban rooftops: Stunning views for city lovers, perfect for sunset ceremonies.
  • Art galleries and cultural spaces: Great for minimalist, design-focused celebrations.
When choosing, think about the guest experience. Does the space allow for movement between ceremony, dining, and dancing? Does it reflect your personality? Peerspace’s selection of unique venues gives couples access to hidden gems, from industrial warehouses to modern glasshouses, so you can find a backdrop that feels like you.

  1. What are some creative ways to personalize your wedding day?

The most memorable weddings are those that tell a story. Every couple has small details that make them distinct, and those are what transform a celebration into something timeless. Personalization can start with the setting. Consider integrating pieces of your shared life—photos from your travels, vintage furniture from a family home, or a custom menu inspired by your favorite meals together. You can also infuse personality through your ceremony: write your own vows, involve loved ones, or include cultural traditions that hold meaning. For decor, focus on a cohesive color story that reflects your energy. Warm neutrals for calm elegance, bold jewel tones for drama, or pastels for softness. Add tactile layers like linen napkins, wood accents, or handmade signage for character. Even your timeline can reflect who you are. Swap the traditional cake cutting for an espresso martini toast, or host a group dance instead of a bouquet toss. Your wedding day should feel like an authentic extension of you.

  1. How do you balance budget and beauty when planning your wedding?

The secret to a beautiful wedding isn’t how much you spend, it’s how thoughtfully you spend it. Begin by identifying your priorities. Invest in what your guests will feel most (atmosphere, food, and flow) and simplify where it’s less noticeable. Here are smart ways to stretch your budget:
  • Choose venues with character: Spaces with exposed beams, natural light, or gardens need less decor.
  • Streamline florals: Focus on one statement installation rather than multiple small ones.
  • Opt for seasonal food: Fresh, local ingredients are both delicious and affordable.
  • Host at off-peak times: Weekday or brunch weddings come with lower rates.
  • DIY select elements: Personalized stationery, playlists, or favors can be handmade beautifully.

  1. What are the biggest planning mistakes couples should avoid?

Wedding planning can be overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be stressful. Avoiding a few common missteps can make all the difference in your experience.
  • Trying to please everyone: Your day should reflect your relationship, not external expectations.
  • Overplanning the timeline: Leave breathing room. Spontaneity often leads to the most memorable moments.
  • Ignoring logistics: Consider parking, accessibility, and guest comfort early on.
  • Neglecting lighting and sound: These elements quietly define atmosphere.
  • Forgetting to pause: Schedule a private moment with your partner to take it all in.
Remember, the best weddings feel lived-in, not rehearsed. Embrace imperfection. It’s often where the magic happens. A genuine smile, a shared laugh, or a dance under string lights will always outshine perfection.
