Wedding Reception Venues in Labrador

Choosing the Right Wedding Reception Venue

Couples choosing a Labrador reception are weighing a pub on the water against a club function room. The Grand Hotel brings restaurant tables facing the water on Marine Parade, and Labrador AFL Sports Club offers The Dux Room on Ashton Street, a dedicated space for 50 to 150 guests. Guest numbers and how formal the meal should be will usually settle it.

Seated numbers, menus and setting compared across Labrador:

Seated numbers: 150 is the club's upper figure for The Dux Room, so ask how many of those fit at dinner tables with a dance floor in the room.
Allocated space: no seated figure appears for The Grand Hotel, where management settles your area against the final count.
Plated meals: an alternate drop of one or two courses is on offer at The Grand Hotel for groups over 20.
Club menu: entrees, mains and desserts come from the chef at Labrador AFL Sports Club, with finger food for a stand-up start.
Budget: shared food at The Grand Hotel is from $30 per person, while the club publishes no figure and matches dining and drinks to your spend.

Neither venue describes a ceremony space, so ask before planning vows on site.

Data projectors, sound systems and lighting can be added to The Dux Room, which helps with a slideshow during the speeches.
Bands use the stage in The Grand Hotel's Main Bar, so ask how far the sound reaches into a reception in another area.
ThreeSixty's white shutters and long bar give the Marine Parade pub its most polished look for a dinner.
Security and free on-site parking are both listed at the Ashton Street club, which is one less job for the wedding party.

Wedding packages and paperwork to confirm in Labrador

Drinks at The Grand Hotel run for two or three hours in regular and premium tiers, so have the spirits step-up priced in your quote.
Holding a date on Marine Parade takes a deposit within a week of choosing your space.
Linen, styling and cake service aren't spelled out by Labrador AFL Sports Club, so ask what sits inside the function price.
Have a guest count and a spending limit ready when you first speak with the club, as its menus are shaped around them.
