Why The Venue Location Matters?
Planning a wedding is a lot of work and extremely time consuming. There are many things to consider that go into planning a wedding that people either do not know or neglect because they do not understand the importance of these things. One of those things to consider when looking for a wedding venue is the location of the venue. When you are considering the location of your wedding venue there is a lot of important details as to why the location matters. Some of the big factors to consider for your wedding venue location is weather, surrounding area, distance for yourself and guests, parking, and food.
When you considering the weather on your wedding day the location is extremely important. When considering the weather for choosing a wedding venue you have to think about whether the seating is inside or outside. For example, if you chose to get married in California during summer time in a city like chino hills you & your guests might not be that excited about having outside seating in the extreme heat. The ceremony is normally held around 3-4 pm which is the hottest time of the day. On the contrary if you plan a wedding in the winter somewhere like big bear you might also not want an outside ceremony as the weather tends to get extremely cold. The average high in November in Big Bear is 55 degrees Fahrenheit. We had our wedding outside in Corona Del Mar during the summer time, but we didn’t even think about supplying our guests with fans to help cool themselves off. Weather is a huge factor as you want your guests to enjoy the day and not be uncomfortable. Next, we will discuss the importance of the area surrounding your wedding venue.
Something to think about when you are looking for a wedding venue is the area surrounded the location. The surrounding area is so important because there are many venues are not located in the best areas. If your wedding venue is located in a run day area or a part of Los Angeles for example that is surrounded by homeless people it might put the safety of your guests at risk. Another important thing to note is that most times when romantic pictures with your fiancé are done they are usually done somewhere on the venue that is excluded or isolated. If your venue is an inside only venue then you will need to have somewhere outside that would look nice enough and safe enough for you and your significant other to go. There are plenty of venues that we can recommend that not only have some beautiful spaces for your wedding ceremony and reception but also have plenty of secluded places for your and your significant other to have some alone time for picture. We believe this is so important because the intimate pictures of you and your significant other are ones that you are going to have framed in your living room, your bedroom, or show off to all your friends. Next, we will discuss the importance of choosing a venue based on distance and inclusions.
There are some venues that you will find that will not allow your wedding ceremony and wedding reception in their facilities. The planning behind your wedding day will save you headaches and frustration on your big day. If all of your family is from southern California and you plan to have your wedding in Northern California you might have to think ahead about seeing if everyone can afford the time, money, and energy to coming up to Northern California. There is a lot that goes into planning distance weddings such as hotel rooms for your guests and planning long enough in advance to make sure there is enough rooms for all of your guests. If you decide you want to keep it local you also must consider how much traffic your guests will experience getting to your wedding ceremony as well as to the reception if it is at a separate facility. Sometimes it is easy to forget some of things, but it is important to plans these things in advance to make your day much for fun for yourself and your guests. Next, we will discuss the importance of planning parking for your guests.
When choosing a wedding venue one of the most important factors is parking. There is nothing worse than having your guests arrive at your wedding to find out that not only do they have to park themselves but there is no parking easily available or close to the location. We have shot at weddings where they have no valet parking and the parking spots that are available are either in sketchy parts or far from the venue. You want your guests to enjoy their day, so you should ask these questions when you visit the venue and make sure they have a solid answer for you. We cannot help to reiterate the importance of safety. After a long night of partying and having a great time your guests are going to have walk back to their cars if there is no valet which means that if it is in a bad neighborhood your guests’ safety could be at risk. These people are important to you which is why you invited them, and we all just want people to have a good safe time. Finally, we will discuss how the availability of food is something important to consider for your wedding day.
When we decided to get married and were looking for wedding venues we absolutely wanted to make sure that the food was amazing. While it is something important to consider about the beauty of venue one must also take that a step further and make sure the food being prepared is good. After the ceremony and the festivities your guests are going to be hungry, and you are going to be spending a lot of money on food for your guests. Part of the experience of the wedding for your guests is also the food. We all want our guests to have a great time and enjoy every part of the wedding. Plus, if your food is amazing they will be talking about it and they will be happier. There is a huge connection between food and happiness. We all have those moments where you eat something so good that you just feel so happy. Well you want your guests to feel this way as well as you.
In the end of the day the venue location does matter a lot.
