Choosing Your Wedding Venue

Do your Number Crunching..

Your budget will without doubt be the single determining factor for selecting your Wedding Venue, it can be assumed that the Wedding Venue will take a large proportion of your Wedding Budget and you need to be clear on exactly what your budget is for this part of the day and how flexible you can be should you wish to stretch it for that special venue you want.

Your Wedding Venue Location

Once the tricky part of determining your budget has been carried out you can then start thinking about the details.

Firstly, think about the location of your Wedding Venue, do you want it to be held locally to where you live which is close to where your friends and family live or are you planning on having a Wedding venue in your hometown where you were brought up?

Of course there might need to be some compromise between yourselves if one of you wants it to be held in a certain place and this is at odds with where you partner wants it to be held.

There might be a particular place that holds a certain personal significance to one of you, perhaps the town where you first met or where you went on your first holiday together might be the place you want to hold your nuptials or you could simply host your special day at home in your garden if space allows.

Maybe you are looking abroad like holding your Wedding on a beach in a dream destination holiday or you want to choose a complete Wedding Package somewhere magical.

How Many Wedding Venues will you have

One point to consider is how many venues you will have, will there be somewhere for the actual ceremony and another place for the Wedding Celebrations or will the whole day be hosted in the same place. 

Of course you can only get married at a venue that holds a Wedding License and premises that offer a full day service will have one but there will be a host of other places where a Licence has been granted in fact the laws in England and Wales regarding this will be changing in the future and there will be even more places where you can legally get married such as outdoors and perhaps in your garden where a registrar can attend.
