Without uncertainty, planning a wedding is one most remarkable thing that happens in someone's life. But most of the couples face issues related to their wedding planning and appear on the wedding day with a lot of sleepless nights or heated arguments or differences in opinion which affect the celebration of a wedding.

One of the major points of concern in wedding planning is " Finding a suitable wedding venue" and how to choose one of them.

  1. Understand your Requirement: Firstly, you need to configure what exactly you need as a couple like :
    1. If you are willing to host the Black Tie event where everyone dresses in Formals and perform on classic wedding tunes, or if you are wanting to have an event with games of thrones theme.
  2. Review wedding space: After deciding the theme for a wedding, you need to review the wedding venue or location that can fulfill your wedding requirements
  3. Wedding Budget: The Very First step of Wedding planning is finalizing the budget for a wedding and when review or visits a wedding venue, try to make things clear and stay away with everything that is out of the wedding budget. Keep your eyes open whenever you are selecting a wedding venue as venues often put a discount tag in the price list intending to promote their Bussines.
    1. Couples need to make sure that, they agree on the amount that they are gone spend and they are ready to cut down their expenses if need.
  4. Location of a Wedding Venue: Location of wedding venue does play an important role as you need to make sure that, your guests can reach the wedding venue without any difficulty from their accommodation and the wedding venue can be located on the maps, easily discoverable
  5. Divide Queries into small parts: It is a kind of human error that some small things can be overseen like
    1. How much time do you need to reach your wedding location or venue?
    2. Is there any nearby restaurant or food court to buy and eat if needed?
    3. Views around the venue. In ideal circumstances, you will have an amazing sunset background.
  6. Venue according to the number of Guests: One of the essential parts of the checklist for selecting a wedding venue. You need to have a rough idea about the number of guests visiting your wedding and which wedding venue or location can accommodate a specific amount of guests.
  7. Shortlisted Venue: Wedding planning is a game of steps and the next step is to finalize the wedding venue from the list of shortlisted venues or locations
    1. Visiting each location personally, to have a brief idea about the arrangments and figure out if that location is going to work out or not.
    2. Try to find a decorator who can preview the seating arrangments, band area, etc.
    3. Review the wedding package in which you can find out that, what exactly they are offering like decoration, catering, etc and you can add some changes if required as per your taste
    4. Read the contract carefully before signing it with the wedding venue and keep a copy of it.
