Venues Tips

Ask your venue for their recommended suppliers. It can be overwhelming trying to find suppliers for every aspect of your special day, but your venue should be able to give you a great starting point.

Relax - planning your wedding is a wonderful thing, be sure to enjoy it

Your venue choice is the first stepping stone in the creation of your wedding day - A venue with personality and character can enhance your day.

Choose the location for your ceremony and reception first, the rest of the planning comes much easier once those decisions have been made.

Most venues will be flexible, if you don't ask you don't get.

Draw up a budget, make sure you have a allowance for unforeseen expenses and don't forgot insurance.

Choosing a venue which can offer civil ceremony options can be a great way to save time and money or your wedding day

Visit the venue as many times as you need, bring in family members and bridal party to ensure you are making the right decision.

Brides always ask us what is the best time for their Ceremony- we always suggest 1pm

Booking Your Venue Should be one of the first things you do. A good venue will allow you Time to Pay whilst arranging Registrar or a Church Service.

Make sure from the outset that you have a good rapport with the staff from your venue. You may fall out of love with the venue if it's difficult to deal with the people.

To save money create your own favours and table decorations

Try and view a wedding at your venue before you commit to having yours there!

To get better value for money consider getting married on other days of the week. Friday and Sunday weddings have become very popular and usually come with a discount!

Ask who runs your wedding on the day? Do you get a wedding coordinator who looks after you before and the run-up to the big day - it's important that you have a rapport with them!

Take Your Time to plan Your Wedding If you keep you two at the centre of every decision, it will be the most memorable day of your life, this is a celebration of your love and future together

Always plan ahead. It may seem like your wedding date is in the very distant future, but it will come around quicker than you think. Avoid stress by booking your venue early.

Don't waste money on things you can do your selves .

Be organised, folders and books are useful to keep everything together, but don't make it complicated. Its your dream day not a military operation.

Never be afraid to ask a question just because you think it may be 'silly'. We get asked all sorts in wedding co-ordination and most of them will be sillier than yours.
