Affordable Wedding Venue Ideas It happened, you got engaged. Congratulations are in order, and now you have to plan a magnificent wedding, and on a budget too. We’re happy to inform you that neither will be necessary, as you’ll be able to still have a pretty good version of the wedding of your dreams, without having to sacrifice, well, too much.
Tips to Choosing a Venue on a Budget • Prioritize your wedding. You must decide exactly what it is that you want for your wedding. If it’s a really great view, then choose the best you can find, if it’s the best catering, then focus on choosing 5-star everything. If you’re on a budget you can’t have the best of everything, but if you balance it out, then you might find some common ground with what your budget allows for you to have and great, which for a wedding is all that you need. • Don’t have your wedding on a Saturday. As the most common day of the week to get married, you should know that all of those venues are going to up their price by a lot more than is necessary. We're talking up to 50% more. Why, do you ask? Well, everybody wants to get married on a Saturday. It's unnecessary. Why not get married on a Sunday? Or, since it's your day, a weekday.
Steer away from the traditional venues. If you’re going to choose a venue that has some sort of historic value or is much loved by your community, chances are it’s also going to be a lot more expensive than other types of venues. You can also be creative and get married in an open space, which you might even not have to pay for. Know your options. • Get married in the morning. There’s nothing wrong with saying “I do” early in the day. It can save you a lot of money, venue-wise. Besides, planning catering around lunch, rather than dinner is also a great way to go regarding your finances.
Tips for Choosing Your Perfect Wedding Venue • Having to plan one of the most special days of your life? No pressure, right? • Or, rather a lot of pressure as forgetting one little detail might ruin your entire day. That’s exactly what you don’t want. • Well, starting with the venue, we’re pretty sure you’re on the right track already, apart from saying yes to getting married that is. • There’s so much to think of when planning a wedding and if you’re not choosing to invest in hiring a wedding planner for some assistance, with the following ideas for your venue, you can do it all by yourself and with a heap load of confidence too.
How to Choose a Wedding Venue • Ask a lot of questions Since you’re the one that’s going to be planning the wedding, you are most probably the bride to be, unless you’re the groom that got allowed by his fiancé to plan everything, which is highly unlikely. Nevertheless, when it comes to planning an important day such as your wedding, you should get to ask as many questions as you like to ensure that when you choose your venue, you’re making the right choice. Ask about all the costs involved in renting the venue, including parking, security if necessary and the set up of the venue. Also, be sure to establish that you can decorate the venue according to how you want it, without limitations.
Be mindful of where the venue is located This is one of the most important things to consider as you’ll probably have friends and family coming from all around to attend your wedding. Be sure to establish that convenience is met and that there are proper restrooms for all of your guests and above all else, that the venue is comfortable and safe. The venue should also be central and not too far for your guests to travel. • Choose your vendors wisely Apart from not hiring a wedding planner, you’ll definitely need some help when it comes to catering and setting up the wedding’s venue. Choose a team of people to help you who are reliable and will do everything you ask of them and do it right. After all, it is your big day.
Is it time for your backup plan yet? • Dear goodness, no… Let’s hope you won’t need one, but in the spontaneity of life, who knows what could happen, so just in case. • What if it rains? What if the wind gets so bad on the beach that you end up getting married in a sandstorm? What if your tent decides to fall apart? Always have a plan B and even a plan C in place, where needed and possible. Even if nothing goes wrong, at least your mind will be at ease.
