What is most important to each of you on your wedding day? Do you envision an open space that&#8217;s scenic and on the water or a downtown city setting with lots of amenities for out-of-town guests? A pastoral barn setting or an old-world-style winery?\u201d <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2014<\/span><b> Nick &amp; Aleah<\/b><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Estimate the Number of Guests<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cHave a good idea of how many guests you plan to invite or how large or small you want your wedding to be before seriously considering a venue. You may fall in love with a venue that limits your guest count, or one that is too large for your needs. Decide first on a ballpark number to help guide you in your search.\u201d<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2014 <\/span><b>Virginia<\/b><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3870\" src=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Leila-Brewster-min.png\" alt=\"Expert Advice for Finding the Perfect Wedding Venue\" width=\"850\" height=\"565\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Leila-Brewster-min.png 850w, https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Leila-Brewster-min-300x199.png 300w, https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Leila-Brewster-min-768x510.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/p>\n<h6>{Photo by <a href=\"http:\/\/leilabrewsterphotographyblog.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Leila Brewster Photography<\/a>}<\/h6>\n<h1><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Venue Tour:<\/span><\/h1>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep D\u00e9cor in Mind <\/span><\/h3>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cLook for a venue with great potential\u2014even if you don&#8217;t see it right in front of you. If the bones are there, anything is possible (relatively). Work with what you have and let the experts (your planner and designers) guide you to solutions that are creatively feasible. That being said, it\u2019s also important to not to overlook how you\u2019ll need to enhance the venue to get your desired results. Many venues are exquisite, but require a large amount of rentals to bring them to life. Keep that in mind when making your selection, as it could have a large impact on budget. <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0\u2014 <\/span><b>Virginia<\/b><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cConsider the aesthetics of the venue: is it a totally blank canvas where you can paint your style onto the footprint rather easily, or does the venue have unsightly decor that needs to be masked to get it to your liking? Finding a venue with the most natural of looks can help you to dress it up to your style.\u201d<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2014 <\/span><b>Nick &amp; Aleah<\/b><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cD\u00e9cor can turn a blank canvas into an unrecognizable space, but it\u2019s still important to have your ceremony and reception in places that are representative of YOU!\u201d<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2014 <\/span><b>Colin <\/b><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Consider Transportation<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThink about proximity to lodging and transportation for your guests. If the location is far from amenities, is it possible to shuttle your guests? Ease for guests is important when mapping out the venue location.\u201d <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2014 <\/span><b>Nick &amp; Aleah<\/b><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIf you are doing a destination wedding, take the time to look into all the accommodations and travel options for you and your guests. Factor the flight times as they relate to the number of days guests will be spending at the destination, and take into account how your guests will get around.\u201d<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2014 <\/span><b>Colin<\/b><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bigger Doesn\u2019t Mean Better<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cAlways take your guests into account. A venue can be too small, but what can be worse is that it ends up being too big. Having the right sized venue for your guests is essential when it comes to factors like being able to hear the vows, see the ceremony, and share the moment in an intimate setting.\u201d<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2014 <\/span><b>Colin<\/b><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3871\" src=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Viginia2-min.png\" alt=\"Expert Advice for Finding the Perfect Wedding Venue\" width=\"850\" height=\"626\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Viginia2-min.png 850w, https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Viginia2-min-300x221.png 300w, https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Viginia2-min-768x566.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/p>\n<h6>{Photo by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jessicalorren.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jessica Lorren<\/a>}<\/h6>\n<h1><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before Signing:<\/span><\/h1>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Find out What\u2019s Included<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cMake sure to have a candid discussion with the venue about what specifically they do and DO NOT provide. Many times we find clients believe the venue provides significantly more than they do.\u201d<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2014 <\/span><b>Virginia<\/b><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Know the Real Costs<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cMake sure that you talk through the minimum at the venue and exactly what that includes (typically food and beverage). A rental fee, taxes, and gratuities are generally on top of that, so it&#8217;s best to obtain a detailed estimate from a venue before you sign on the dotted line. Also, have a clear understanding of what&#8217;s all included, like tables, chairs, and staffing. <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2014 <\/span><b>Nick &amp; Aleah<\/b><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Consider Your Timeline <\/span><\/h3>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many venues have a short rental window, so ask about extending that to get the ideal length day that you&#8217;d like (with set up and tear down time padded).\u201d<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2014 <\/span><b>Nick &amp; Aleah<\/b><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ask the Right Questions<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIs there a noise ordinance? How late does the venue allow live music? How much time do we have for load-in? When do you and your guests need to be out? Is there a loading dock? What about trash removal? Can you bring your own caterer and alcoholic beverages? It\u2019s better to be over prepared than under. Make sure to cover all your bases so you have minimal surprises during your special day. Knowing the ins and outs of the venue beforehand allows you to have peace of mind before and during the wedding.\u201d<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2014 <\/span><b>Colin<\/b><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3869\" src=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kate-Holstein-min.png\" alt=\"Expert Advice for Finding the Perfect Wedding Venue\" width=\"850\" height=\"567\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kate-Holstein-min.png 850w, https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kate-Holstein-min-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kate-Holstein-min-768x512.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/p>\n<h6>{Photo by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kateholstein.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Kate Holstein<\/a>}<\/h6>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We want to extend a huge thank you to Colin, Virginia, Nick, and Aleah for joining us today.
