Wedding reception is the name of the party, not the mappable venue.
A particular kind of 'party'.
There are wedding themed event halls all over japan - they love the
idea of a western wedding in a "church" (they all are fake churches) -
but are used for non-wedding events too. My school has a
parent-teacher dinner at one.
There has to be an "event space" that is meant for smaller facilities
- I dont care about renting a stadium or a civic center if im looking
for an event space for a wedding or an office party.

I don't know any place like that in Belgium. Places where wedding
receptions take place typically also allow for other parties such as
wedding anniversaries, etc. Actually any gathering where food and
drinks are involved. They are called "feestzaal" (party room) in
Dutch. I would not use the tag wedding_reception for those.
I need a more general tag for those places.
As a non-native speaker, "wedding_reception" sounds more for the
event, not for the room in which the event takes place. Am I mistaken
on this ?
Humm... fine point.
Whenever the church has a dedicated room for gatherings (typically
used after funerals, not s much for weddings) it is called a
"parochiezaal" (parish room). Can't use this tag for them I guess.
I would love to see a general tag for a place that is available for
rent and where drinks and foods are served. The menu is typically
agreed upon beforehand.
Such as;
building=hall
hire=yes
wedding_reception=yes
birthday_party=yes
catering=yes
I'll change the proposal into a property rather than a key:value.

Hi,
Following my concern with the proposed 'reception' values being
missused as wedding receptions, I am proposing the new value of
'wedding_reception'. There are very few of these in the OSM data
base, but they do exist in fair numbers in the world.
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/wedding_reception
A Wedding Reception provides a place where a social event,
involving the
bride and groom, is held after the completion of a marriage
ceremony.
It is held as hospitality for those who have attended the wedding.
