From the menu to the décor to the very cake itself, every single aspect of your wedding day will need to be paid for. This is especially significant when it comes to your wedding venue because for most couples, booking their venue is usually their largest expense. As such, it’s very important to consider how much money both you and your spouse have available for your wedding and set a realistic budget. This will help you narrow down potential venue options a whole lot faster by factoring in cost; in addition, it will also prevent you from overspending on your wedding, which usually winds most couples who do it up in debt.
Next, you’ll want to give a little thought to your wedding date. As a general rule of thumb, you’ll need to book your wedding venue around 12 months in advance. Most of the popular and attractive venues you’ll be considering will be fully booked for any dates before that. As such, it’s important to give a little thought to your expected wedding date before securing a venue, just so that you’ll be able to make the booking at the right time.
And last but not least, you’ll want to consider your wedding location. Think about whether you’d like your wedding to be a destination wedding, or whether you’d prefer a location that’s a bit closer to home. Making this decision early on will certainly help direct you to the right venue.
