So to continue our tips for finding a wedding venue, here’s a few more….
Guests
Tip 1: Before deciding on a wedding venue, you should have a clear idea of how many guests you wish to attend and your budget.
Tip 2: Prepare a tentative guest list and make sure to look for venues that can accommodate the number of guests you will be inviting.
Tip 3: Be aware that a sit down dinner will require more space than a stand up buffet. So if a venue allows 100 seated, it could mean they are prepared to have 200 standing for canapés. Decide which one best suits your guest size.
Wedding Venue Facilities
Is the venue suitable for guests with disabilities and can it provide appropriate seating for the elderly and/or young children?
Tip 4: If you have elderly or disabled guests at your wedding make sure that there are lifts as well as stairs or easily accessible access for those who are frail.
Wedding Transport
Is there enough parking for guests who drive, and decent transport links for those who don’t?
Tip 5: Make sure there are places where guests can park or organise a mini bus or taxis for guests to shuttle to and from their accommodation.
