What to Think About When Choosing a Wedding Venue

Selecting a venue can be challenging but it doesn’t have to be! It can be super fun because it means you know exactly where you are gonna be when you start the next chapter of your magical journey. Here are my top 5 things to keep in mind:

❤️ When putting together your shortlist of possible venues, make sure you select ones that are within your budget. There are amazing venues that fit all kinds of budgets!

🧡 As you consider venues, keep in mind the season you want to get married and what the weather is generally like. Selecting a venue that has a space that can be a rain plan can be super important!

💛 Ask about what additional items are included in your venue fees. Some venues offer tables and chairs, others a full kitchen, others offer decor options, and more.

💚 Some venues require use of other vendors off their preferred vendor list rather than allowing nearly-weds the ability to bring in vendors who are not. This can be really great for some and can also be limiting for others. Make sure to check in and ask about this so you know!

💙 Lastly, does the venue give you butterflies or make you super excited, or both? You should love your venue as much as possible. It’s gonna be a big part of your day and will be in all those photos so make sure it fits who you are and brings your joy is super important.

There you have it! Let’s do this!
