Now that a rough date has been set, one can start looking for a potential location to hold the ceremony/ reception, or both.
What you should know before looking at locations:
1) What season the wedding is going to take place ( booking a wedding in the summer months is much more costly when dealing with venues than if you were to book in any other season)
2) Know what you want in terms of the location being indoors or outdoors , or even a mixture of both
3) Know approximately how many people you will be inviting to the wedding (looking at a venue that only holds 100 when you know your guest list is going to be 250 is a waste of time)
4) Keep in mind your guests if they will be travelling from your first location to your reception location, some have come from far away already and gas is expensive.
5) Have an idea what your expecting from the locations. Do you prefer that they carry linens? Have an in-house lighting department, etc....
6) Tell yourself not to be fooled by moulding and marble floors, the venue is trying to pay a mortgage too, so if it sounds like it might be out of your budget, find somewhere else.
