Weddings: Guidelines for Choosing a Venue - as part of the Wedding series by GeoBeats.
Some guidelines for choosing the right wedding venue is, first and foremost, to make sure that you love the space. You and your fiance should feel comfortable there, you should enjoy being there, and you should feel connected to it. So that is the most important.
Secondly, you should also ask the sales coordinator what is included in the rental fee of the property. Does it include linens, chairs, tables, etc. If you have to rent all these things separately on your own, that is going to be a lot of added cost.
And then lastly, you should also take into account the entire cost of the venue rental plus the food and the alcohol. These 3 things make up the largest part of your wedding budget and are going to count for about 50% of what you are going to be spending.
So if it adds up to be over 50%, you might want to look for a different venue, because it could be higher then what you are comfortable spending.
