How to Pick the Perfect Wedding Venue

SIX TIPS ON HOW TO PICK THE PERFECT WEDDING VENUE

Now that you have your ring and you have told the world through Facebook, Snap Chat and Instagram that you are now engaged.  You ask yourself, “What’s next???” You need to know how to pick the perfect wedding venue.

Your selection of the perfect wedding venue is one of the most important decisions you will make on your journey to I do. The venue will pretty much dictate what time of year you get married, your dress, your budget, decor and what type of vendors you need to hire. You might feel overwhelmed because there are so many venues to choose from.

First and foremost you will need to take the following into consideration:

  1. How large or small a wedding do you plan to have?  Do you want to have a destination wedding?  You need to know that not every venue can accommodate large weddings; whereas some venues have a minimum guest count. If you are looking to have a small destination wedding, it might not be the right fit.
  2. The wedding season is year round here in Sacramento , but the most popular months to get married are September and October.  Hot weather can put a damper on your July or August wedding,
  3. Holiday weekend weddings are very popular; however, venues that might not be open or will charge a premium for you to hold your wedding during a holiday.  You also might have your heart set on vendors that are not available.
  4. When you first start out planning your wedding, you probably do not have a budget in mind.  Sit down with your fiance and have a realistic conversation about money.  You don’t want to overspend on your dream venue and cannot afford to feed your guests!
  5. A licensed and certified wedding planner offers valuable insights on venues that fit your budget.
  6. Are you a DIY bride? A venue resource book like Here Comes the Guide can help you find the perfect venue.

Everything about working with this business was easy and wonderful! I appreciated the thoughtful follow-up as soon as I had made the order and the willingness to answer my questions. On the day of the delivery, I loved getting a text message and pic of the bouquet being delivered! Last and definitely not least, the bouquet was gorgeous and I loved the colors they chose. I will definitely be using Inspirations By Gina in the future!

We contacted Gina to provide a Dallas Cowboys themed flower arrangement for a large pedestal table located in the vestibule of the venue we were holding our loved one’s celebration of life service. With very little input from me Gina created the most beautiful arrangement and it was a show stopper! We appreciate Gina her professional attitude and creativity in our very difficult time. That arrangement put smiles on our faces all night long! Thanks Gina!

I've had the opportunity to work with as well as utilize Gina's floral services and design skills. This had been mostly when designing events for the Sacramento chapter of NACE. She has always delivered on her commitments with class, consistently, efficiently and with a flair of creativeness. Trust and invest properly and you will be more than pleased with your decision.

Gina is the kind of florist that you come across once in a lifetime. She is talented, thoughtful, and has the gift of conveying emotion through her work. A group of friends and I reached out to Gina to help us show support to a friend whose grandmother had passed away. She was incredible to work with and created a stunning arrangement that she delivered with great care. I can't recommend Gina enough!
