Factors To Consider When Looking For A Wedding Hall

By Nancy Gardner


Shortly after you get engaged, you will not only receive hundreds of well wishes but also the inevitable questions of when and where. The questions of when are where are never easy to answer as most people tend to think. Gone are the days when couples used to pick any nearby venue and then check that task off their list of things to do. These day, you have to dig really deep if you want a good venue for your wedding and especially if you plan to conduct it in a hall as opposed to garden. Below are factors you need to consider when looking for a good wedding hall.

First and foremost, you need to identify a hall with capacity to accommodate all your guests. This might sound obvious to you but it is very important to make sure that the room is large enough to accommodate everyone who is invited. A room may look enormous when it is empty but you should remember that wedding essentials like chairs, tables, deejay setup or buffet can take a lot of space. The best way to assess the size of a location is to take a peek of the space when another wedding is all setup.

No matter how good a particular venue may be, if it is not easy to access, then it will not be of any help to you. As such, accessibility is another very important factor that you cannot afford to ignore when choosing a nuptial venue. In fact, you should not even contemplate hiring a hall that your guests will have difficulty in accessing.

Unless you have a very big budget, you will also want to compare charges from different halls in the neighborhood. Of course this will vary from one place to the other depending on a number of factors. It does not however mean that the most expensive hall is the best and vice versa. In fact, there are some very good wedding venues that are charging very affordable fees.

In this day and age where most people drive their own cars, you will also find it necessary to look for a venue with ample parking. The parking should be safe and also be free of charge. If you are unable to find a venue with ample parking, then you may have to arrange for transport for all your guests.

The room should also be well lit up. Remember that light can make or break the mood and space. If you are marrying during the day, you should make sure that the hall has plenty of windows. After all, nobody wants to spend close to six hours in darkness while the sun is shining outside.

After you have found that ideal venue, you should also ask for a written contract. This is a very important step that you should not ignore. However, before you append your signature on any such document, you need to carefully go through it and ensure that you fully understand its contents.

With these tips in mind, finding a good hall for your wedding should be pretty easy. It is however important that you start the search early enough. This is because the good venues are usually booked in advance.
