Deciding upon a venue for your wedding? Already charted out a budget?

We know that there is nothing worse than the guilt of diverting your eyes from minute things that were right in front of you. Don’t worry we won’t let you make any mistake on your special day.
Hence, we have curated a list of 7 things to look out for in wedding venue before signing the deal with ink and making it permanent.
Number Of Attendees
We know it is difficult to prepare a definite list of guests attending the wedding months before the event itself. But it is crucial in the selection of a wedding venue. At minimum, keep an approximate number of guests with you. Always book a venue with extra space for any unexpected guests.
Availability Of Accommodation
In case of a destination wedding, always check the availability of accommodation or number of rooms the venue can provide. Prefer that wedding venue which has ample number of rooms. Don’t forget to book separate rooms for the bridal party preparations.
Cost of Deposit And Cancellation Policy
Enquire about their cancellation policy, if need be. Cost of deposit must be discussed in detail whether it needs to be paid in installments or lump sum. Check how much deposit is refundable.
Noise Restrictions
If you plan to organise a live band or set up a DJ, then first find out if there are sound absorbing facilities provided by the venue or not. Make sure that there are no restrictions on the timings for which music can be played as wedding hours can easily slip out of hands.
Proper Liquor License
If you are intending to serve alcohol, make sure the venue has a proper running liquor license to serve alcohol in their premises. Check if it is to be expired in the near future. You should discuss in advance the kinds and brands of liquor you fancy to be served among the guests.
Backup Plan For Rain
If it is an outdoor venue you’ve decided upon, then check for their rain prevention arrangements. Better be safe than sorry! Check for weather forecasts beforehand. Although Rain God, Indra Deva cannot be trusted despite all.
Any Hidden Costs
Most often than not, there are several hidden costs involved in your final bill. Make sure to check out for any corkage fees or services and tax added upon the cost.
