The venue is going to be the backdrop in your photos, where you share your first meal as a married couple, where you dance the night away and ultimately one of the most important pieces of the entire wedding planning process. Finding your perfect venue should be an exciting experience for both you and your fianc\u00e9, so here are FIVE things to consider when you\u2019re selecting your venue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Size<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Size encompasses a lot of things, but it\u2019s one of the most important factors when selecting a wedding venue is the size of your guest list. The number of people a space can hold for your ideal ceremony, reception, or both will have an effect on how many people you are going to invite to share in your special day with you and your future spouse. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/p7ulS.jpeg\" alt=\"Selecting Your Wedding Venue\" class=\"wp-image-5340\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/p7ulS.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/p7ulS-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/p7ulS-768x512.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo Credit: <a href=\"http:\/\/stephsorenson.com\/\">Steph Sorenson Photography<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you start touring or selecting your wedding venue, have a number in mind, and stick to that number. If you fall in love with a space, but realize the maximum number they can accommodate is under that number, you will have to make some difficult decisions: choosing a different venue, or making cuts on that list, both of which can bring a lot of unnecessary stress. You don\u2019t have to have your guest list written out to select a venue, but have a realistic idea of who will be getting an invite.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Along with selecting who to invite, keep in mind it\u2019s <em>your<\/em> big day. Don\u2019t feel obligated to invite your college roommate you lived with for one semester or that second cousin who never shows up to family events. Ultimately, the venue you select is going to be one that will be able to house those who love you both dearly and are excited to watch you take the next step in your relationship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Service Style<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Service style at your reception is also something to keep in mind when it comes to size. A lot of venues have different levels of capacity based on service style. If you\u2019re planning a cocktail style reception with hors d\u2019oeuvres and drinks, the capacity is often high then if you\u2019re planning a full seated dinner style reception. When touring a venue, ask for both numbers, along with what\u2019s popular for the space and examples of configurations for both service styles.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Location and Accommodations<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Another factor to keep in mind when selecting a venue is the venue location and accommodations. You will likely have family and friends traveling in from out of town and needing a place to stay prior to your wedding. Ease and accessibility are important to both you and guests and should be considered when making your decision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/tT9xN.jpeg\" alt=\"picking your ceremony and reception venue\" class=\"wp-image-5341\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/tT9xN.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/tT9xN-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/tT9xN-768x512.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo Credit: <a href=\"http:\/\/stephsorenson.com\/\">Steph Sorenson Photography<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If the venue you\u2019ve chosen happens to be located in a city, there will likely be plenty of hotel options for your guests to choose from. More options are a great thing because your guests can not only stay at the hotel(s) you\u2019ve suggested or reserved a block of rooms at, they also have the option to stay at another hotel they may have a previous relationship with, bonus points from a loyalty program with or something that fits their budget.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re selecting a wedding venue that is located off the beaten path, accommodations and transportation are going to play a much larger role in the planning process for you and your guests. There will be fewer <a href=\"https:\/\/foreverbride.com\/vendors\/hotels\">hotel<\/a> options and the transportation options you have when you\u2019re in a more populated area may not be available, your guests will either have to drive to your venue, or you might want to provide a shuttle service to and from hotel to venue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure to ask for recommendations on accommodations while touring. The venue manager or staff member will be able to make suggestions based on past events or provide a list of options or contacts for you to use during the planning process. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Staff and Amenities<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Behind every good venue is a great venue manager and venue staff. There are so many little details that go into planning your wedding, and the venue staff knows this from experience. Your venue contact is going to be your go-to for questions, timelines, and preferred vendors when it comes to hammering out the details of your big day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you\u2019re touring the space for the first time, you should feel like you have all of the information regarding sizing of the space, prices, possibilities and should be able to answer almost any question you can come up with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/bTKNa-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\"details about ceremony and reception venue\" class=\"wp-image-5337\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/bTKNa-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/bTKNa-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/bTKNa-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/bTKNa-1536x1024.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/bTKNa.jpeg 1999w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo Credit: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.poiemampls.com\/\">Poiema MPLS<\/a> (Previously Kruse Weddings)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>They will also be the best resource when it comes to setting up some of the other details of your big day. Ask them about their preferred vendors list. They might work exclusively with certain <a href=\"https:\/\/foreverbride.com\/vendors\/food-beverage\">caterers<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/foreverbride.com\/vendors\/dj-lighting\">DJ\u2019s<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/foreverbride.com\/vendors\/photography\">photographers<\/a>, or <a href=\"https:\/\/foreverbride.com\/vendors\/wedding-planners\">wedding planning services<\/a> or have a list of trusted partners that they have existing relationships with that can suggest to you. Having a photographer who is familiar with the space or having a caterer who works exclusively with the venue can ensure you won\u2019t incur outside fees or may even get a preferred vendor discount. Weddings can be expensive, getting those details from the venue manager can be very beneficial when finalizing those parts of your wedding experience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. D\u00e9cor and Details<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to the details and d\u00e9cor, you\u2019ve likely got a vision in mind for your big day before you even really start the planning process, and you want your venue to be able to fit, accommodate, and accent that vision effortlessly. Whether your plan is to dress up the venue with decorations galore, or you just want to add a few accents that tie in with your color pallet, having a versatile venue is important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/0hKf8-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\"decor at your venue\" class=\"wp-image-5334\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/0hKf8-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/0hKf8-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/0hKf8-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/0hKf8.jpeg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo Credit: <a href=\"http:\/\/eileenkphoto.com\/\">Eileen K Photography<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If your plan is to transform a space to fit your vision with flowers, greenery, and decorations, selecting a wedding venue that can be a blank canvas for all of those items is important. Look for venues that have neutral coloring, natural brick and stone, and open spaces or tall ceilings. This will ensure whatever your vibe, theme or color pallet is will work perfectly with the space you\u2019ve selected. If you\u2019re wanting to bring in your own lighting, hang greenery or a floral piece from a ceiling or another type of large installment to meet your vision, make sure you are discussing this on your original tour of a space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/htgXA-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\"layout of your venue\" class=\"wp-image-5339\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/htgXA-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/htgXA-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/htgXA-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/htgXA-1536x1024.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/htgXA.jpeg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo Credit: <a href=\"https:\/\/shanelongphotography.com\/\">Shane Long Photography<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Many times, couples will elect to leave the space as is and only add subtle decorations, like centerpieces and accent tables, without having to dress it up completely. In this case, the way a venue looks when you tour it is a good indication of how it will look on your big day (minus tables, linens, and other setup items). Pay attention to the little existing details of the space. These will be the standout features of the venue on your big day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Photo Opportunities<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Photos from your wedding are going to be with you forever, so <a href=\"https:\/\/foreverbride.com\/vendors\/photography\">your photographer<\/a> being able to capture everything perfectly should be important. Before you tour your possible venue, take a look at their website and social media pages. They will often post photos from past weddings which can be very helpful to imagine yourself having your first look in a certain spot or other ideas you want to make sure your photographer captures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Xx3tc-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\"photo opportunities at your wedding venue\" class=\"wp-image-5338\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Xx3tc-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Xx3tc-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Xx3tc-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Xx3tc-1536x1024.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Xx3tc.jpeg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo Credit: <a href=\"https:\/\/shanelongphotography.com\/\">Shane Long Photography<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Interior<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Pay attention to the interior details when you&#8217;re touring a space. Exposed brick, natural lighting, a jaw-dropping staircase or light display are going to be details you will want to be captured on your big day.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Depending upon what season you\u2019re going to get married in, having indoor and outdoor locations for your photos is possibly going to impact your decision. If you\u2019re getting married in a season where the weather will likely be cooperative, being within walking distance or a short drive from outdoor locations is a big bonus. Parks and open spaces provide a vibrant and neutral backdrop for portraits and wedding party photos.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Exterior<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Other great backdrops for your photos can lie within the city you\u2019re getting married in! Buildings with murals and interested outdoor d\u00e9cor can make for some jaw-dropping photos and will feel totally authentic to your wedding day and the city you\u2019re getting married in. There is beauty in streets, alleys, and pathways, and a good photographer will know how to make sure everything is showcased perfectly and really pops on your big day. Don\u2019 be afraid of a little weather, sometimes a little flurry of snow or a few raindrops while you\u2019re under an umbrella can really take a picture to the next level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/SCfOO-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\"location of your wedding venue\" class=\"wp-image-5335\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/SCfOO-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/SCfOO-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/SCfOO-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/SCfOO-1536x1024.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/pearl.davidsbridal.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/SCfOO-2048x1366.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo Credit: <a href=\"http:\/\/eileenkphoto.com\/\">Eileen K Photography<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Being open and upfront with your photographer about your timeline, expectations and feel you want them to capture is key to receiving back a fantastic wedding album once editing is complete. Don\u2019t forget to smile! Your wedding day is bound to be one of the most memorable of your life. That look of love and happiness will be all over your face the whole day, the right photographer will capture it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Selecting your wedding venue is one of the most exciting parts about planning your wedding. Once you\u2019ve selected a venue and a date, a lot of the other details of planning will follow. Going into touring with a clear mind, list of questions and budget and important numbers in mind will help ease any stress. The perfect venue will tick all of the boxes it needs to and should make your heart soar just like it does when you see your future spouse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p>header image \/\/ <a href=\"http:\/\/eileenkphoto.com\/\">Eileen K Photography<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Selecting your wedding venue is one of the most exciting parts of the process!
