The Event Ladies specialize in helping you discover the ideal venue, whether it’s a charming backyard setting, a rustic barn, a sleek modern space, or an elegant hotel ballroom. When considering venues, it’s essential to ask the right questions and take certain factors into account.
One crucial aspect to consider is catering. Determine if the venue offers catering services or if you’re free to bring in your own. Similarly, inquire about the availability of a bar service and whether it’s included in the venue package or needs to be arranged separately.
Another key consideration is the minimum number of guests required by the venue. This information is vital as it will likely be outlined in your contract and could impact your catering options.
When estimating your guest count, it’s wise to err on the side of caution and start with a lower number. This prevents potential issues if fewer guests attend than initially anticipated, as venues typically do not refund the difference if fewer guests show up.
Additionally, inquire about the venue’s policy regarding outside vendors. Are they allowed, and if so, what are the requirements for them to access the property?
Finally, explore any packages offered by the venue. Many venues now provide comprehensive packages that streamline the planning process and alleviate stress for couples. Understanding these packages can help you make an informed decision and ensure your wedding day is everything you’ve dreamed of.
