The Ultimate Wedding Venue Checklist for Your Special Day
Congratulations! We are so happy to be joining you on your journey to find the perfect wedding venues in the Durham region. The most important aspect of a Royal Ashburn Golf Club wedding is that it is all about you. We want to help in our small way towards your ultimate wedding venue checklist, so you can view the venues with a standard list of questions and jot down the answers as you go.
Decisions to Make Before You Start Looking at Wedding Venues in the Durham Region
Some brides have always known the type of wedding they want, while others only have a vague idea. Making certain decisions before going on the ultimate venue search will make the process easier for everyone involved. Decide on the following:
- Choose a couple of locations for your shortlist,
- Set a budget,
- Estimate a guest count,
- Think about the date, and
- Find your wedding style.
Wedding Venue Checklist Questions to Ask
When drawing up your ultimate venue checklist, remember to include the following questions:
1. Availability
What kind of venues do you have, what are their capacity, what is the availability on my chosen dates, what does your package include and do you have a coordinator?
2. Ceremony
Can we hold the ceremony here, are we allowed to use confetti and if the ceremony is held outside, what will happen if it rains?
3. Food and Wine
Do you have an in-house caterer, do you provide the alcohol, and/or must I make my own arrangements and do you have a list of preferred vendors?
4. Reception Decor and Styling
What crockery/linen/cutlery forms part of the package, what type of tables do you have and do we have to decorate the venue ourselves or do you offer the service?
5. Wedding Reception
What time do guests have to leave the venue, what is your noise policy, what are the details of your dance floor and do you have microphones for the speeches?
6. Accommodation
Is the bridal suite included in the price, what accommodation does the venue offer and is there accommodation for disabled guests?
7. Facilities
How many restrooms are there, is the venue child-friendly, is there an outdoor space for smoking, also is there enough parking and is it free?
8. Financial
What is the venue’s fee, what is the cancellation policy and are there any additional fees and/or charges I need to be aware of?
