Reception Packages
Many Hamilton banquet halls offer packages that include dinner, full bar and late-night buffet.
Casablanca Winery Inn located in Grimsby has a great variety of complete reception
packages, some including overnight accommodations for the bride and groom. It is important
to remember that if you have guests coming in from out of town, you may want to consider
blocking off rooms at a local hotel. You can usually arrange for a discounted rate for your
guests by blocking a minimum number of rooms. There are a host of Hamilton hotels available.

Naturally you will probably be looking at several Hamilton venues as options for your
wedding reception. If there is one banquet hall you are particularly favouring over the others,
ask if there are any upcoming weddings planned. See if you can stop in during the morning
to see what the hall looks like done up for an event. Sometimes it’s hard to see potential in

Transportation
Another consideration for your reception is ensuring that transportation is available for your
guests at the end of the evening. While you may have rented limos for you and the

You can make up cards ahead of time with the local cab company information and ensure
they are available at payphones and even on the tables. You can always swing by a local
company and ask for a handful of business cards to have on hand as well.
