After taking the big decision to get together, you two will now have to make several vital decisions concerning wedding planning. Location is one of the critical aspects to consider – whether you are planning an intimate wedding with a few friends and family in attendance or a large full-scale wedding. This piece has been carefully crafted to help you choose the right wedding venue for you in the Sunshine Coast.

How Much Can You Spare?

Knowing how much you can spare makes the whole process simpler. When you are checking out different venues and the demanding amount, ensure that you know what other charges make up the total cost. A good bargain on a venue but which comes with the need to spend large on tables, chairs, and other fixtures isn’t a bargain after all. The manager of the venue will be in the best position to provide you with the full cost, taxes inclusive, as well as other charges for the additional important items you will be using at the venue.

What Are Your Options?

Options here include the types of bartenders, DJs, catering, and alcohol available. While some venues demand that you bring your alcohol, others demand that you buy from them, which is usually expensive. If you are the type that plans on serving customized drinks at the reception, ensure that the venue you are using permits that you serve your own drink at the venue.

Check Each Venue Out In Person

A physical check on all the venues is the best. In the event where you have to visit many venues on the same day or week, try to take pictures and make notes about your observations at each location. This is to ensure that you don’t mix up the venues and what they offer. Prioritize the features you want, and go with a venue that offers most of these features. You may not find the perfect location, but it is most likely that you find one that is close.

Pick A Date

Choosing a date will ensure that you tailor all other arrangements to meet the deadline – so, it is one of the essential first decisions to make. For instance, once you have a date, you can start checking the availability of your photographer, caterer, and other vital parts of your planning.

Consider The Weather

The weather is another important point to consider – what if it rained; does your chosen venue offer shelters that will ensure the wedding proceeds in any kind of weather? Your wedding day is quite significant, and you wouldn’t want anything that would bring disappointments. If possible, work with a date that offers the best possible weather. Dates in the offseason may get you a better deal on venues, but you will be taking a chance on the weather if you are looking to save money.

Choosing A Convenient Location

Your chosen venue must be good for you and must be convenient for your guests to access and use. Consider the accommodating power of such a place, for guests that want to sleep over. To get a clearer picture, you may do a quick survey among your potential guests to see how many of them you would have to provide accommodations for. Your findings here are quite pivotal to your planning and may influence the venue you will settle for in the end.

Where Is The Best Place to Book?

You obviously want the best location, but it is a bit difficult to determine what that location is. The solution here is to do some research on the internet, especially Google and Facebook, using keywords like "best wedding venues Australia" or "popular wedding venues in Australia." Results on Facebook may include pictures, which offers you a first-hand view of the experience of previous users of a certain venue.

There are several fascinating wedding venues in Australia, although they are hardly available. Thus, once a date is fixed, you should waste no time in checking out venues. Once you secure a place that suits your preferences, proceed to book. Then you can start working with the managers of the venue to create an experience you and your guests will never forget in a hurry.

Good luck on your quest to make your special day memorable!
