Tips Of Deciding The Preeminent Wedding Venues

By Margaret Bell


To majority of couples, the most critical decision that they make when planning their wedding is its location. Because of the large number of wedding venues in Cape Town, this decision can sometimes prove to be more difficult than expected. When it comes to this, it is advisable to sit down with your partner and make a list of possible sites in your area. He/she may come up with a place that had not even crossed your mind. Below are some guidelines that may help you make a wise decision.

One of the most important considerations is usually the size of the location. Ideally, you should pay a visit to the place in advance before the D day. This will avoid last minute inconveniences that are likely to arise due to wrong size. Because you are having a small function, sometimes you may feel dwarfed in an oversize location. Conversely, if you have invited many guests, you would not want to feel cramped.

Budget is also a crucial factor when it comes to venue choice. Different locations will always charge varying rates. This does not in any way mean that the most expensive one is the best and vice versa. You should therefore do a price comparison of at least three locations before making a decision. Again you should not rush to the smallest location thinking it is the cheapest. Sometimes, this is not always true.

Practicality in your choice of wedding venues in Pretoria is also important. It will not be possible to hold an outdoor function during a rainy season. On the other hand, it may not be very practical to have your wedding on the mountain side even if you loved it. This is because some guests may not be able to climb the mountain. These are some of the factors that should come into play when making this very important decision.

You also have to check whether your venue of choice will be available when you need it. Do not wait until it is too late to check on its availability. This may leave you with no options should you find that it is occupied when you need it.

Different locations usually have different meanings for different couples. It is always better to choose a location that has a special meaning for you. This will help personalize your marriage ceremony.

In whichever venue you settle on, there are some crucial services that you will need. Some of these include caterers, bakers, deejay and many others. If you are not coming with your own vendors from outside, please look for a location with adequate staff to provide all these.

These are some of the most important factors one needs to consider when shopping for wedding venues in Gauteng. Sometimes it is also important to follow your instinct. If it tells you that a location is not right for you, you better look for another one.
