Ceremony & Reception in One Venue: Why It Works Beautifully at The Rooftop
For many couples, one of the first big planning decisions is whether to host the ceremony and reception at the same venue — or split them into two locations. While there can be pros and cons to each, more and more couples are choosing the all-in-one option. At the Rooftop Lehi, we’ve seen how seamlessly it can work, and why guests love it too.

Simplicity for you and your guests
When your ceremony and reception are in the same place, everything feels effortless. No need to worry about transportation between venues, juggling multiple rental contracts, or stressing over timelines. Guests especially appreciate the convenience — they can celebrate with you from start to finish without any extra travel.
A smooth transition between spaces
At the Rooftop, couples often begin their ceremony in the Skylight Room, with its beautiful natural light and flexible layout. From there, the celebration flows seamlessly into the Overlook Room for dinner, toasts, and dancing. Guests never feel rushed, and the change of scenery keeps the evening dynamic and exciting.

Indoor + outdoor options in one place
Utah weather can be unpredictable, but having both indoor and outdoor spaces at your fingertips means you’re covered no matter what. Many couples choose an indoor ceremony followed by an outdoor cocktail hour, or vice versa. The Rooftop’s versatility gives you the freedom to design the flow of your day exactly how you want it.

Cost and time savings
Booking one venue for both the ceremony and reception often translates into significant savings. You’ll only need one set of décor rentals, one delivery schedule, and one vendor team to coordinate with. Fewer moving pieces means less stress — and more time to enjoy your engagement.
