How to Choose the Perfect Wedding Venue in 2023?

How to Choose the Perfect Wedding Venue in 2023?

From ditching the décor to forgoing a few delicacies from the menu, pretty much every aspect of a wedding is optional. But you know what you can’t skip? The venue!

However, choosing the perfect wedding venue is easier said than done, primarily due to the number of options available. You could go for a quintessential banquet wedding, an airy outdoor one, or people’s favourite – destination wedding. The possibilities are truly endless, and thus, overwhelming.

If you’re in a similar fix, here are some tips to help you choose a perfect wedding venue 2023 for your big day.

Budget

Figuring out a realistic budget is the first thing every couple must do before embarking on a wedding planning journey. Though it may not sound like the most exciting thing; without it, you’ll be more vulnerable to mistakes.

Begin with dictating what you want your final wedding expense to be (with a 10% contingency). Then, divide it into buckets and allocate it to different elements like:

  • Venue
  • Catering
  • Wedding trousseau
  • Photographer
  • Décor

However, make sure to attribute a sizable chunk of your budget for the venue, as more often than not, it’s the heftiest spend out of all.

If an expense is out of your budget, you can cut costs somewhere else to accommodate it. However, if you don’t want to go down the compromise route, you can always opt for a personal loan for wedding.

Capacity

A mismatch in venue capacity and guest count can make or break a venue. Obviously, you can’t cram 200 people into a venue that’s designed to accommodate 100. The reverse is equally problematic.

When not sure how many guests will attend the wedding, always be ready for more than less. If you’re booking a venue for both ceremony and reception, ensure that the venue can fit the total guest count from both events, as many of the ceremony guests will carry over to the reception.

Transportation

To craft a positive guest experience, you also need to factor in the accessibility of the venue. From ensuring enough parking spaces to checking in with the local hotels to make sure there are enough vacancies, it’s imperative to guarantee that your family and friends can travel to and from the venue without a shred of discomfort.

Date availability

Once you begin shortlisting venues, keep availability high up on your priority list. Many venues already have dates booked 2-3 years in advance. Moreover, with COVID-19 postponements, the competition for popular dates will be sky-high.

Therefore, be realistic while choosing the dates. The more flexible you are, the more options you’ll have. If you’re okay with a weekday wedding, you can bring down the budget by a significant margin while simultaneously not having to fight for dates.
