Congratulations on your recent engagement! Now the real work begins – planning your wedding. Whether or not you are planning your special day on your own, or with a wedding planner, one of the biggest decisions you will have to make will be choosing the perfect wedding venue. Our professional wedding staff has rounded up four things that every person should consider when searching for their perfect wedding venue.
Do You Have Enough Space?
First things first: if you have invited 200 people to your wedding, but a potential venue can only host 100, that should immediately narrow down your search. If your dream wedding is small and intimate, you should search for a venue that reflects that. If your wedding is the size of a small army, you should be able to comfortable host all of your guests. Even though the day is about you, it’s also about your guests. You won’t be able to please everyone, but consider planning a few things differently if it means your loved ones will be able to attend.
Remember Your Budget
Yes, everyone has one. And although sticking to a budget isn’t the most glamorous thing you will do to prepare for your wedding day, it’s important to keep that in mind when searching for a wedding venue. When talking to prospective venues, be sure to ask about every fee – it’s more than just how much renting the space will cost. D

écor, floral arrangements, food, alcohol, set up and tear down fees are often separate from the overall wedding package.
Consider Arrangements For After The Reception
If you are getting married out of town, or inviting a lot of out of town guests, consider looking for a venue that is close to a hotel. If guests are planning to spend an entire weekend in the city you are getting married in, it’s always a bonus to have nearby attractions for them to visit before and after the wedding day.
Be Sure It Is a Place You Love
Listen to us carefully: put down the Pinterest. Although it can be nice to use tools like Pinterest to draw inspiration, try not to get caught up in the idea of a “Pinterest- perfect wedding”. It’s most important to stay true to you and your sweetheart. Try to find a wedding venue that feels authentic to the two of you as a couple and a space that is representative of who you are.
