Nigerians love to party. They usually reserve Saturdays for weddings. Then you find guests tastefully dressed trooping in and out of wedding venues. For brides-to-be, you need to consider your wedding venue amongst every other factor. The right wedding venue would contribute to the success of your big day. Here are things to note:
1. Budget
Work out a budget early, so you can choose the potential wedding venue that fits your taste and wedding theme. Large wedding venues in some areas tend to be very expensive. So know the exact amount being allocated for your venue and work towards it.
2. Number of expected guests
Bear in mind the number of guests before you start looking for a wedding venue. Do this to avoid the disappointment of visiting a beautiful wedding venue only to find out it is too big or small for your wedding.
3. Space
You have to decide on how big you want the venue to be. This is based on a lot of factors, like your budget, the number of guests you’re expecting, etc. It would be advisable to learn to make your hall spacious with wisdom.
4. Decoration
If you don’t want to spend a lot of money on extensive venue decoration, then get a place that would look good without too much arrangement. Some halls already have a set theme and can look good without too much decor.
5. Location
It is advisable to book a venue that will be easy to get to both for you and your guests. Taken note of its accessibility in terms of traffic, parking space and distance. If you’re going to use a church, try to get a reception venue close to the church for ease of transportation.
6. Wedding date
If you’ve decided on a date for your wedding, check the availability of that date before you make a plan for the choice of a hall.
