Are wedding receptions special with regard to other private
celebrations like birthdays, baptisms, anniversaries,
presentations?</div>

They look to be separated by the venues . <br>

There are vast belief/cultural difference across the globe for
weddings and their receptions!!!<br>

I wish to remove the possibility of a mapper looking for a tag for
a wedding reception using the proposed
reception/reception_point/reception_area by error. <br>
<br>
I could simple create a wiki page with that title and direct them
to a generic tag .. but a google on wedding reception shows the
popularity of this function. <br>
<br>
Google search numbers<br>
wedding reception 169,000,000 <br>
Birthday venues 75,800,000<br>
anniversary venue 59,500,000<br>
presentation venue 86,800,000<br>
<br>
So wedding venues look to be about twice the numbers of the
others...<br>
<br>
For comparison the OSM tag amenity=music_venue has 91,000,000
google search numbers (searched for music venue)... And yes a
music venue might also be used for other things too. <br>
<br>
Google search on event venue returns 292,000,000 results .. I
don't think all of them would be suitable for a wedding
reception.And the numbers are about half those of wedding
reception. <br>
<br>
? What do you think? <span class="moz-smiley-s7"><span> :-\ </span></span>

One other thing .. the draft proposal for amenity=events_venue is
for "a stand alone facility" and shows a photo of a building. <br>
<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:amenity%3Devents_venue">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:amenity%3Devents_venue</a><br>
<br>
What about when the 'event' is in a garden, a park, a mountain top
or on a beach? These places are not "stand alone" and some are used
by the public at other times. <br>
<br>
e.g. <a moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="https://www.rbgsyd.nsw.gov.au/welcome/royal_botanic_garden/weddings_and_venues/weddings">https://www.rbgsyd.nsw.gov.au/welcome/royal_botanic_garden/weddings_and_venues/weddings</a><br>
<br>
A restaurant may hold a wedding reception (in a separated room but
probably a common entry) ... and so you have the situation where on
OSM you have <br>
amenity=restaurant<br>
with the tag <br>
amenity=event_venue? <br>
<br>
Needs more thinking on the event_venue thing. <br>
<br>
But I think there are enough wedding reception venues to have there
own tag? <br>
<br>

A range of examples can be found here<br>

<br>
A dojo, a beach, a hotel, a fort (in the middle of Sydney Harbour),
a zoo, and on. <br>
there is a very large variety... I think it is a property tag .. not
a key:feature tag. <br>
