All your Wedding needs
22 July 2008
When choosing your wedding venue, there are several factors to keep in mind.
Set a wedding venue budget. Just like the rest of your wedding, you need a set budget for your wedding venue. Many places are affordable, you just need to look around. Try making a list of possible wedding types such as a garden wedding, or a church wedding. Do you want the wedding reception at the same place? Think about the wedding pictures backgrounds also.
Find the most affordable wedding venue. If you decide to have your wedding in the off peak season, you may be able to find cheaper wedding venues.
Are there any restrictions on the wedding venue? Some wedding venues have restrictions on noise levels and amounts of alcohol that can be served. Find out all the information you can before selecting your wedding venue, such as space for your wedding entertainment.
Is there sufficient parking for the guests? If you're having a large wedding, make sure there is enough parking, or suggest that your guests carpool. If not, help you guests arrange transport like mini buses.
Get everything in writing. Get a signed written agreement when you pay your deposit. Also check the cancellation policy in case a last minute change of wedding venue is required.
