Wedding Venue Ideas

Coming up with wedding venue ideas and planning the post-ceremony celebrations. Once you've chosen your venue you can start thinking about menu's, drinks, room layouts and decorations

The venue you choose can often be determined by your budget. Hotels and country clubs tend to have expensive menu's and charge per person for buffet and sit down meals. The cost can quickly add up.

The are many public houses that have function rooms and their prices can be more reasonable and they will give a discount the more people you have.

You could also have an outdoor wedding. The are companies that hire out marquees, tables, chairs and wooden dance floors. You could create exactly the room you are looking for all under a marquee.

The Cost Of A Venue

After spending time working on your budget you will be aware that the venue and its related costs make up a large proportion of your total budget. Venue charges are rarely just as simple as room hire and catering. There are often lots of additional charges that can pop up.

Ceremony Fees

If you are holding your ceremony at the venue there will be ceremony fees.

Room Hire

The cost of hiring a private room

Exclusive Use

If you don't want members of the public being able to join your party you may need to pay an exclusive use fee.

Late License

If you want your party to go on after 11pm the venue will need a late license and you will have to pay the fee.

Food & Drink

This will be the biggest expense.

Damage Waivers

Most venues charge a damage waiver to cover the costs of any damage that occurs during your party. Damage can be something as little as a scuff mark or pin hole in the wall.

If you are considering hosting a wedding at home you may need to make some home alterations. For ideas visit www.home-improvement-and-diy.com
