You've found your groom. You've bought the perfect dress.
You're expecting a fairytale wedding. Now all you need is the
best wedding venue. Having a perfect wedding relies largely
on the venue. That's why you should treat finding a wedding
venue as if you are buying a new house. It's where you will
treat your friends and relatives to the most memorable night
of your life.
Here are some tips to help you search for the best wedding
venue.
As soon as you arrive at a venue you will automatically
have a certain feeling towards it. Trust your instincts. If you
feel a certain vibe when you are at the venue then that's a good
start. You will know automatically if a certain venue is not right
for you and your wedding. This doesn't mean that you should
not use logic when choosing a wedding venue. It's the place
where you will exchange vows with the man you love so it has
to feel right.
A wedding is a very important event sotake your time when
choosing the venue. You should start looking for a venue at
least a year before the wedding date. This will give you plenty
of time to make the right decisions and change the venue in case
something comes up. Don't rush when choosing a wedding
venue. If you give yourself enough time, then you can make
the right choice.
The size of the venue is a very important consideration. If the
venue is too large, the wedding will loose its intimacy. If it's too
small, it will be cramped and uncomfortable. Of course, the size
of your venue depends on the number of your guests. So before
looking for a venue you should at least have a rough idea of how
many guests you will be inviting. Be as precise as possible. Try
to keep the range no higher than 50 people. If you say you are
planning for between 150 and 400 guests, expect a disaster.
Don't forget the dance floor. This is where mistakes are made.
If you are dealing with 300 guests, than a 10 by 10 dance floor
won't do. The more guests you have, the larger the dance floor
will need to be.
One of the complaints people have when attending a wedding
is the lack of parking spaces. Be sure that the wedding venue
you choose has enough parking spaces for all your guests.
Parking may be a minor consideration, it becomes a major
problem when there isn't enough.
Be sure to ask about the restrictions of the venue, if there
are any. Some venues have time restrictions while others
will let you party all night long. There are venues with
decorations restrictions.There may even be restrictions
about noise so you might not be able to hire a band or bring
in a sound system. Check if the wedding venue will allow
you to bring your own caterer, florist, decorator, etc.
Have a layout of your wedding. Before choosing a wedding
venue, you need a drawn out plan. You need to know where
you want guests to sit, where you want the reception area,
the dining area, etc. Then see if the venue fits your layout.
Remember, with a well thought out plan, plenty on time, and
a little research, finding the best wedding venue can be a
piece of cake. Without these components, a nightmare.
The choice is easy.
