subject: Comparing Wedding Locations [print this page]


So you've found a couple of wedding locations that you like. Now it's time to narrow them down and make a final decision. You find yourself unsure of where to begin when comparing them. They all have things you like about them. It can be difficult. The main reason is venues bill themselves differently. They emphasize the key points that are the best attributes, but these aren't the same in every venue.

One thing that is easy to compare is the total cost for each venue. Don't bother trying to figure out how much the cake is at one venue and the beverages at another. It's like comparing grapes and grapefruits. They aren't the same.

Add up your total costs. If a venue is more expensive, ask yourself if it's worth it for what they are providing. If not, you've just made a decision. If a venue costs a lot less, ask yourself if you would be happy with what they have to offer. If you feel yourself dreaming about a more expensive venue, then you've just answered another questions.

There are as many different types of locations there as there are people. Another consideration is private or public venue. A private venue means you and your guests will be the only ones there. The entire place is yours to enjoy without having to worry about tourists walking by or hotel guests intruding. Public venues mean other people are using the place at the same time, whether it's a conference, hotel guests or another wedding.

Some people want their wedding to feel as if this moment is the only moment happening in the world. For them, a private venue would be the place to go. For others it's more important to have a venue that is easy to access, where transportation isn't necessary and out of town guests are already at the location.

Another thing to look at is what amenities they can offer you. Some places have private rooms for the bride and groom and their wedding party to wait until the ceremony takes place. This way no one will see the bride before the big moment. There should also be snacks and drinks while you're waiting. If you have to go to the bathroom, do you have to walk through your guests to get there, or is there a place to go where you won't be seen?

How many weddings has the venue hosted before? Is this their specialty or do they do any event that comes up? Will they help you organize the timing of events? If you're moving from outside to inside, will someone help direct guests? Are there indoor and outdoor spaces so part of your wedding can be outside?

Once you factor in all of these suggestions, listen to your heart. Where do you really want this wedding? Your wedding day is about you being happy. Know what it will cost and what you get for the cost. If you ask yourself is it worth it and the answer is yes, then sign the contract.
