Family reunions, company picnics, alternative weddings, and less formal rehearsals and bridal luncheons all fall under the category of large casual events. Moreover, these types of events encompass the most diverse group of guests, where sometimes the age group and social spectrum of the guests vary quite a bit. Large events such as these may incorporate children as well as friends from the workplace and grandparents. They take place more in a relaxed setting like parks, vineyards, restaurants, or a large private residence and less in the formal setting of a ballroom or banquet hall.
