Someone popped the question, someone else said yes. An engagement ring was given, a minister was decided on, now the only thing left is figuring out choose the perfect wedding venue. By following this checklist, you should be able to choose the wedding venue that is right for you.
Instructions
1. Ask yourself how many people are going to come to your wedding. The best way to figure this out is to take the total amount of wedding invitations you sent out and then figure that about half to three-quarters of the invited guests will actually attend. So if you plan accordingly, you should have plenty of space for all of your guests to share your special day.
2. Decide if you want separate venues for your wedding and reception. If you want to do them both separately, then choosing venues that are near to each other is a good idea. Make sure that the reception venue is going to seat all the guests that attended the ceremony and a few more. Statistics show that more people attend receptions than the actual wedding.
3. Do a walk through of each and every place you consider for your wedding. Bring a camera to document specific things you think make one site better than another. Also, carry a notebook and pen with you to make any notes or remember any questions you might have.
4. Investigate different venues for your wedding. Consider churches, botanical gardens, community centers and any building that rents space as a viable option. Don't remove a site from your consideration until you have seen it, you might be pleasantly surprised.
5. Compare prices of all of the venues you are considering. It might help to make a column of pros and cons for each site and use that to help you make a decision.
