Factors To Consider Before Hiring Any Austin Texas Wedding Venues

By Gwen Lowe


A wedding has a lot of expectations to live up to, so choosing the right venue for your big day is very important. However, most couples are not aware of the things that make venues great. There are several things you can look out for when putting together a shortlist of possible Austin Texas wedding venues for your dream day. Some of these factors are discussed below.


The expected number of guests is very important and should be your first consideration. You do not want a venue that is too small for your guests. At the same time, you should not choose a venue that is too big for your visitors. It will be costly on you for nothing and will also make your nuptial to appear poorly attended. Other than the number of guests, accessibility also matters. Consider making a few sacrifices here and there in order to make it easy for your guests to attend the function.

You also need to inquire about the competence of the staff before making a choice. You need a venue with very dedicated staff that can give you their maximum cooperation during the preparation process. You must also find out who amongst the staff will be answerable to you. This way, you know who to turn to if something goes wrong or if you are looking for clarification.

Your budget is another factor that should dictate the venue you choose. Unless you can find a good free venue around, you will be forced to part with some money for the venue. The rates will vary from one venue to the other. As such, comparison shopping is always mandatory. During price comparison, be sure to check out what is included in the cost and choose a venue that gives you the best deals.

A good venue should also give you the freedom to bring your own vendors. This way, you can negotiate with various vendors and chose one who is affordable. However, it is not bad for the venue manager to give you a list of their preferred vendors as long as he/she does not dictate to you who to hire.

Good locations are always booked in advance. Because of this, you should also follow suit and make advance booking if you want the best. Otherwise, you will find your first choice venue taken up and you may be forced to look for an alternative.

It is also advisable to use one venue for the function. In fact, the event will flow effortlessly and guests are likely to be more relaxed if the ceremony and reception are held in the same venue. Look for venues with separate space for the function and reception.

Your wedding day is probably the biggest day of your life. As such, you should never compromise anything to make it great. If necessary, you should even hire an expert to advice you on the venue choice.
