The wedding day is one of those landmark events in a person’s life. Given this magnitude of importance, it’s only natural to want every detail from the flowers to the on-site catering to be perfect. The months and weeks prior to the big day can easily become a blur with so many decisions to be made; the venue itself being the most important. If you haven’t pinned down your venue yet, here are a few tips to keep in mind as you decide. 

3 Tips for Picking the Perfect Wedding Venue

1. Consider Size & Location

You need to have an idea of your guest list, even if it isn’t solidified yet; a ballpark estimate will work. It’s important to know how many people you plan on attending so you know how large of a venue you need. Once you’ve narrowed down the options to places large enough for your party and maybe a few more, it’s time to consider distance. Take into consideration driving time and traffic. For convenience, pick a place that isn’t too far out of the way.

2. Ask Those Who Know

It isn’t uncommon for wedding vendors and venue sites to partner with each other. Your wedding planner or even your on-site catering service staff can help point you in the right direction of a good venue option.

3. Stay True to You

The most important factor to consider is what suits you and your spouse-to-be. A venue can be beautiful, but if it just doesn’t feel right or represent either of you or your relationship, it’s not the place for you. The venue will be the backdrop of every wedding picture you’ll have for the rest of your life and an important part of every memory you’ll have of this day. Above all, choose the location that feels right.
