Top Considerations When Choosing a Wedding Venue

Wedding celebrations are among the most awaited events by couples from all over the world. It's a sacred day where they get to formally exchange their vows in front of their families and friends.

As such, adequate preparation is necessary to ensure that the celebration runs smoothly and the guests are taken care of well. An essential starting point for all types of planning is the selection of wedding venues. Aside from the convenience factor, sites can add color and life to your event especially if you're planning to follow a theme.

Before you take your pick, be sure to check on the following considerations.

Size of your guest list


Sit down with your partner and make a list of the people you wish to invite on your special day. If you want the gathering to be small and private, then limiting your guest list to your family members and closest friends is a fine choice. For big gatherings, on the other hand, listing down the contact details of each person as well as the potential individuals they might bring along with them is necessary.



Either way, the size of your guests will affect your venue selection. Typical areas have a particular limit as to the number of people they can hold. Find that location that can house your expected number of guests.

Event budget


In as much as how you wish to get that dream venue, it won't be feasible if your budget cannot afford the place. Knowing your budget helps you narrow down your list to those areas that are fit within your capacities to pay. 

Create a sample breakdown of all the expenses and see how much you can allocate for the venue alone. Going beyond the budget will affect the money allocation you have for other factors so make sure to be detailed in the calculations.

Date availability


Popular wedding sites are typically reserved for couples ahead of time knowing that others may have an eye on it too. You should do the same. This is especially true when you're planning to get wed on favorite season picks for the wedding. If you already have a date, make sure to double check and see if the venue is available at that time.


Package inclusion


When you choose a venue, take the time to ask whether the offer is just right for the location or will it include extra services like catering food and even providing souvenirs. There are exclusive wedding spots that do this. If you wish to have a hassle-free preparation in having to scout for individual services, might as well choose those that offer all-in-one.

Referrals


It wouldn't hurt to ask a person or two to give you some ideas on how good the location is. If you haven't done an ocular inspection yet, you may have doubts on whether the photos you see online really live up to the appearance of the actual location. Don't hesitate to ask the owner of the venue for referrals. If they're confident with what they provide, they must be able to give you names of previous clients who will be willing to share their reviews about the place.

Accessibility of location


Last but not the least is the place's accessibility. How easy is it for guests to travel from their homes towards the venue. Some sites may look great but is only accessible by private shuttles provided by the site owner. Before choosing a place, consider the convenience of your attendees when it comes to transportation. Some of them may want to bring their vehicles on the way. Be sure to explore the options.


Weddings, often happen once in a person's entire life. This is exactly why couples pay close attention to its preparation, making sure that every aspect of the event is well addressed. Start listing down things to accomplish and find the best venue!
