10 Tips to Choosing Your Perfect Wedding Venue
|
Many people getting married have not planned a large social event before, |
|
|
| You’ll Need To: | We Do: | |
| 1. Talk to at least 5 brides who have recently married there to make sure they were thrilled |
|
|
| 2. Check the Better Business Bureau for any complaints against the venue |
|
|
| 3. Check reviews on non-biased (non-advertising based) websites |
|
|
| 4. Conduct a background check on the venue |
|
|
|
5. Verify that everything promised verbally is in the final contract (be sure to read and understand the fine print) |
|
|
|
6. Understand and confirm everything that is included in the “all-inclusive” package for example, chairs might be included, but are chair covers? Does the open bar fee include the bartender? What are the service fees?) |
|
|
|
7. Confirm the food and beverage minimum, and what is covered by it (This can be a real suprise when the final bill arrives) |
|
|
|
8. Determine the back-up ceremony plan for outdoor ceremonies in case of bad weather (A tent can cost more than $5,000) |
|
|
|
9. Confirm the responsibilities of the day-of coordination at the venue (Could you be on your own, or will there be someone to help? Does the staff work weekends?) |
|
|
|
10. Determine if additional fees apply if you don’t use the venue’s preferred vendors (It could cost more to bring the photographer that you love) |
|
