Before you can decide upon a wedding
venue there are a number of factors which should be taken into
consideration. They include identifing the number of guests that will
be attending your wedding, whether or not you want to get married
there as well as having your wedding reception there and whether they have
availability for your chosen wedding date.
Try and visit a prospective wedding
venue a year in advance of your wedding day. That way you will know
what the weather will be like, what flowers are out in bloom and how
much light you have available.
The venue may have a number of rooms
and extensive grounds, however it is important to find out if you
will have access. Find out if there are any restrictions in terms of
what you will be allowed to do on the day such as entertainment, the
use of confetti, and the erection of a marquee should the venue not
be large enough to accommodate all your wedding guests.
Do check if you have exclusive use of
the wedding venue on the day, as it may spoil your big day to find
another wedding party present you had not been fore warned about.
