For many small weddings, the best reception is one long table. The restaurants on this page publish private rooms for weddings, rehearsal dinners or receptions, from rooms for eight to a whole room for one hundred and fifty.
Ask about the food and beverage minimum for your date, whether the room is fully private, and whether you can bring your own cake and flowers.
I photograph the table before anyone sits, then stay at the edge of the room for the toasts, and take the two of you out for a few minutes between courses.
