Factors To Consider When Looking For A Wedding Hall

By Nancy Gardner


Shortly after you get engaged, you will not only receive hundreds of well wishes but also the inevitable questions of when and where. The questions of when are where are never easy to answer as most people tend to think. Gone are the days when couples used to pick any nearby venue and then check that task off their list of things to do. These day, you have to dig really deep if you want a good venue for your wedding and especially if you plan to conduct it in a hall as opposed to garden. Below are factors you need to consider when looking for a good wedding hall.

First and foremost, you need to identify a hall with capacity to accommodate all your guests. This might sound obvious to you but it is very important to make sure that the room is large enough to accommodate everyone who is invited. A room may look enormous when it is empty but you should remember that wedding essentials like chairs, tables, deejay setup or buffet can take a lot of space. The best way to assess the size of a location is to take a peek of the space when another wedding is all setup.

The venue you choose should also be easily accessible to all your guests. Remember that not all guests will come driving, some of them will actually use the public transport. As such, it is very important that the venue you choose be served with a good network of road transport.

While it is not advisable that you choose a venue based on price alone, price is still a very important factor to be ignored. At all, it will add up to your wedding budget in a very big way. This is why you cannot afford to ignore it when choosing a venue.

The venue you settle on should also have plenty of parking spaces especially if most of your guests own cars. If there are no enough parking spaces within the compound, you should look for a good parking lot a round or a garage or even a street where parking is legal. If you realize that parking is going to be a problem, you should look for other alternative ways to ferry guests to the venue like hiring a shuttle or vans to ferry guests from a common place.

It is also very important that you choose a hall with plenty of lighting. Remember that the quality of lighting in the room will also reflect on the quality of your wedding photos. As such, you need a room with proper lighting.

Once you find that ideal venue, it will not be a done deal yet until you sign a contract. This is now the time to put your emotions aside. In case you feel emotionally attached to the venue and cannot make independent decision, it may be wise to request a non emotional friend to help you review the small prints before signing.

With these tips in mind, finding a good hall for your wedding should be pretty easy. It is however important that you start the search early enough. This is because the good venues are usually booked in advance.
