The Wedding Venue

The first thing to do is book the location of the reception with a definite date and time recorded in writing. It's also worth noting that several venues who claim to offer reception facilities do not cater for evening receptions or dancing and music so ensure you confirm those details first.

Check the size of the place. If over 200 guests are invited is there room to climb over the chairs to get to the dance floor? How about the elderly or disabled guests. Can they get around?

Can the kitchen accommodate the guests and are there enough toilets ? Many times overlooked, are there fire exits? Are there any areas that could be dangerous if children are invited to the reception, swimming pools, ponds etc?

If the wedding is outdoors, that opens a brand new area of concern. Is there a contingency plan if it rains? What about toilet facilities for an outdoor wedding?

Something to think about...
