Choosing the right venue for your wedding

As an engaged couple, choosing the right venue will most likely be one of the most important decisions to make before the big day comes. Most wedding venues will be booked months in advance, so it’s best to start browsing right away to avoid any disappointments. For those unsure what they want, or without any particular preference when it comes to the location of your wedding, we’ve prepared a few tips to get you started and point you in the right direction.

The first thing to consider is the amount of guests that will be coming to your wedding hire Essex, as this will be the deciding factor when it comes to the location of your wedding. It’s probably best to list your choices and then narrow them down by getting rid of the ones that would not be able to hold all the people you invited. If you’re planning a large wedding, and simply could not imagine not having everyone you know being there for you on the big day, you will most likely need to look for a more secluded location, such as a country house or a wedding barn.

Right, so that’s done and out of the way. The second thing to look at would be of course the theme and/or styling, so here comes the fun part! At this stage, you should go ahead and visit the venues you have narrowed your list down to, and see which ones are the most appealing to you in terms of the general look and feel of the location. Take notes, or photos if you wish, to help you recall later on what you loved about the venue later when making the final decision.

Last but not least, there’s the money factor. While a small wedding venue that’s not very fancy (or not fancy at all!) will not empty your wallet to the last penny, if you’re really after something unique and want to stand out from the crowd, prepare to pay a lot for booking. Boutique wedding venue, something that becomes more and more popular recently, will not be cheap, but you can be sure your wedding will be one of the kind, so go for it if only your budget allows!
