Making Your Event Incredible

I still remember when I helped my sister to plan her wedding. As an aspiring events coordinator, I figured that all we needed was a well decorated reception center, some punch bowls, and some good dance music. However, when her wedding arrived, I learned what it meant to be embarrassed. I quickly discovered that we had missed tons of important details including meals for people with dietary restrictions. After that experience, I decided to head back to school to take a few classes. I want to share the knowledge that I learned with you, so that you can create events that you will cherish.

When planning your wedding, it is import to choose the right venue for the event. Many people only worry about the location of the venue and the number of people that can fit in it, but there are other things that need to be taken into consideration as well. Use the guide below to learn a few things you need to remember to take into consideration when looking for a wedding reception venue in the future.

Consider the Time of Day You Want to Have Your Wedding

The first thing you need to consider is the time of day that you want to have your wedding. If you plan on having the wedding reception at a place that has beautiful outdoor scenery, you would need to have a day wedding for everyone to be able to appreciate it. If you are simply worried about the beauty of the interior of the reception hall, then the time of day that you have your reception will not really be a factor.

Consider the Parking Availability at the Venue

You need to make sure that everyone has somewhere to park when they come to your reception. Choosing a venue that has ample parking on site or nearby will make parking a bit easier for your guests. If you choose a venue that only offers street parking, there is a chance that your guests could get parking tickets while they are enjoying your reception.

Consider the Food Prep Options at the Venue

Be sure to choose a venue that has areas available for caterers to use to prepare food for the event. There are some venues that have chefs on site that can prepare food for you. The venues with their own chefs often offer a discounted rate for the food if you book the venue and the catering through the same facility.

Consider the Restroom Accommodations at the Venue

When you have a large number of people enjoying themselves at one location, it is important for numerous people to be able to use the restroom at one time when needed. Be sure to take the bathroom accommodations into consideration before choosing a venue to ensure that you do not constantly have a line waiting to get to use the restroom.

Once you have considered all of these factors, you will be ready to make an informed decision about which venue is best for your reception. Be sure to book it in advance to ensure that you are able to have your reception on the exact date that you want to have it.
