Before you Google "best wedding venues near me," create your do(s) and don't(s). Find out how

Updated: Sep 6, 2022

You've dreamed about your big day for years, and it's finally time to make those dreams come true. It's a day full of celebrations, laughter, and love — and you want it to be the best it can be. When you arrive at your venue, you want to relax and enjoy your day — not worry about where to set the tables or where to put the flowers.


For a stress-free wedding, it's essential to take your time to review the various factors to consider when searching for a wedding venue. This guide will help you go through some Dos and Dont's that you should remember when searching for the ideal location.


DO BRAINSTORM WITH YOUR PARTNER TO CREATE A WEDDING DAY THEME


When you have to decide on the topic and aesthetic of the wedding, it may be a fun exercise in imagination and creativity. Prioritize the "big picture" first and discuss wedding themes with your partner that best reflect your vision of the ideal wedding location. Brainstorming together will help you narrow down your options and help you prioritize which venues are the best fit for your perfect wedding day.


DO CHECK FOR OUTSTANDING FACILITIES AND BEAUTIFUL DECOR


Check out the shape and layout of the venue space to determine the number of guests that can be comfortably seated. For you and your guests to have a fantastic wedding experience, the best wedding venues would have impressive decor and top-notch amenities like a gourmet restaurant, a cocktail bar, a spa area, and vast event spaces. A garden, beach, or forest background on a sunny day might give your wedding plans more pzazz.


DO FINALIZE THE BUDGET AND BLOCK THE SITE EARLY


When planning the wedding of your dreams, finding the most charming site with the best amenities is crucial, but you also need to consider your budget. Venues range from cheap and cheerful to stunning and luxurious, so there is something for everyone. But in the end, it all boils down to preference. An early decision will help secure your top choice for each vendor because many couples book the best locations more than a year in advance.


DO CREATE A WEDDING CHECKLIST


When you first start planning, it might feel like everything is in play: which flowers to use, where to have the ceremony and reception, what kind of wedding dress to get, and on and on. When the big day gets closer, it's time to focus on the finer details. A checklist and a timeline are essential when looking for the ideal wedding site. The list will help you and your fiance stay on track and ensure nothing crucial is missed.


DON’T CHOOSE A CHALLENGING DESTINATION WEDDING


Although destination weddings can be wonderful, do consider the convenience of your guests. While some friends and families would enjoy—and be able to afford—a trip to an exclusive island, others might decline the invitation. Make it simple for everyone by picking a popular location, announcing the venue in advance, and helping with travel details.


DON'T STRESS ABOUT MAKING EVERYONE HAPPY


You'll spend hours looking through beautiful venues, dreaming of your big day, and thinking about how your guests will react to the space and service. Searching for a location involves many worries, including being judged, spending too much money, and dealing with family issues. It is best to avoid worrying too much about what other people will think of your day; instead, try to enjoy the preparation process.


DON’T FORGET TO CREATE SPECIAL MOMENTS WITH YOUR PARTNER


Don't forget to think about creating memorable moments that will be remembered and cherished forever. You could think of something as small as being the first person to dance together at your wedding or as big as giving your guests a unique wedding experience that no one else can offer. Just think about what would be a special moment for you, and then go from there.
