Your wedding is a very important day in your life, but it's also an expensive one. Not just in terms of the actual expenses involved but, more importantly, in terms of the amount of work that you want to do before making sure everyone has a great time. The venue is one of the most integral parts of any successful wedding. This is where all the pre wedding festivities will take place and where everyone attending will spend most of their time. Even if you're having your reception somewhere else, choosing your ceremony site can be an important factor in how people perceive your big day. If you've visited both, one may leave a far more favorable impression than the other. Of
course, you'll need to make sure that whatever location you choose will properly suit all your needs.
A venue can make or break your wedding. There are a lot of details to consider because every detail is so important. It's no secret that one or two little things could ruin your big day, so choosing the right wedding venue is very important. The process of picking your wedding venue is full of stress and anticipation, but don't let this stress you out and make your head spin. You can easily pull it off.
Location
Where you live and the venues available in that area will dictate how far away you can go. If you live in the city, you will have a lot of options for wedding venues. You could live in the suburbs and have multiple unique wedding venues to choose from. You might also live in a rural area with less of a selection. But that doesn't necessarily mean your wedding venue won't be amazing.
You may want to consider where your guests are coming from and if they will need hotel accommodations. The ease of getting to the venue is also important to your guests' enjoyment and relaxation. For instance, the beautiful hotel four hours away may be the most gorgeous location you've ever seen. But, if you're having a big wedding, do you want to ask all of those people to drive four hours? Many people could end up stuck in traffic, which would be awful.
Price
When choosing a venue, you'll also want to look at the costs associated with it. Some venues are all inclusive, while others require that you pay for everything individually. There are pros and cons to each: All inclusive might seem like the best choice because everything is taken care of, but it can be more expensive than paying for things individually. You don't want to pay extra for items that you don't need or want.
It's hard to find a place you love, so you may be quick to settle on a place you love that is way out of your budget. Of course, it's important that you love the venue, but keep the price in mind. If you settle for something in your price range, you'll have some extra money to spend on decorating the venue.
Number of Guests
When picking a venue, it's important to consider how many people will be there. If your wedding is very small, you should not choose a huge venue because it will feel too empty. Similarly, if your wedding is very large, then you should not pick a small venue because guests won't have enough room. The number of guests will often determine the size of your venue.
Weather
Outdoor weddings are beautiful. But, if you live where it rains or snows a lot and want to have a wedding in the winter or possibly even early spring, keep that in mind. It could be freezing or even a wet day. You don't want to get rained out.
On the flip side, if you're planning an outdoor summer wedding, make sure your outdoor venue has access to shade or can provide some form of shelter in case it's hot and sunny. Even if it's not raining, there is still the possibility that your guests will need some type of shelter from the sun during the day's events.
Decorations
Think about how you want to decorate the space. If the room is narrow, too much decorating could make the space look smaller. Keeping it simple is always a great option. Also, as you’re looking at venues, think about whether you’ll be allowed to bring in your own vendors (like a florist, DJ, or photographer), or if you’ll be required to use their preferred vendors. Some venues may put restrictions on who you can use for certain things like flowers, so keep that in mind as you decide what’s important to you.
If you're having difficulty finding a venue that matches all the criteria you have, talk to someone who works there. Maybe it's not possible to have the exact colors you want or the size of venue you hoped for, but don't discount anything immediately. Instead, ask if there is anything they can do to arrange your wedding in a way that makes you happy. With the right information and planning, you'll be able to pick a beautiful venue that's just right for both you and your partner.
