Making important decisions about your wedding venue

Choosing the right wedding venue is one of the most important decisions you will make. As an Essex wedding photographer, I can offer advice on many different factors. The final decision will be yours, however. There are many venues located throughout Essex that may fit your criteria in two or three ways, but not in others. It’s up to you to carefully weigh your options before making your final decision. Remember that it is your wedding day. Choose the venue that will make your wedding day one that you will always cherish. Read on to find out some answers in how best to choose the best Essex wedding venue for your perfect day.

Budget

Your budget is often the final factor in determining which venue you choose. This is a once-in-a-lifetime event. While certain venues may be less expensive, they may not provide you with the type of atmosphere you want. This is the one day that you will get to look and feel like true royalty. If the cost of the venue is a little high, it may be well worth the extra price if it offers you the crowning touch to make your fairy tale wedding come true.

Style

If you want to add a touch of style to your wedding, Essex wedding venues like Parklands Quendon Hall and Gosfield Hall are both incredibly stylish. Each one is unique in what it has to offer, but the beautiful meeting rooms where the wedding ceremonies are held are incredibly beautiful. Once they are decorated in your wedding colours, it will be the perfect setting for you to exchange your vows. Both venues offer a variety of amenities that will make your day one to remember.

Location

Most people pay little attention to the location of the venue as long as it is close to their hotel or at least near to where they live. Some couples choose an Essex wedding venue because it is one that has captured their heart. If this is the case, once the venue is set, the rest of the wedding is planned around its location. For couples who want their venue and hotel to be close together, Maison Talbooth offers just what they are looking for. As a boutique hotel, you can hold your ceremony in the hotel as well as the reception. When it is all finished, everyone can retire to their rooms and no one has to drive anywhere.

Size

The size of your wedding venue is also an important factor. If you want a smaller, more intimate wedding in a country setting, an Essex country house may be more what you are looking for. A country house wedding offers the perfect setting for outdoor photographs that use nature as the backdrop. Beautiful gardens that add just the right touch of colour. If you want a much larger venue, Gosfield Hall offers large, spacious rooms and opulence that is unrivalled by other venues of a similar size.

Accommodation

Many couples consider their venues for the accommodation they offer for the guests and the members of the wedding party. Greenwoods Hotel is a venue that offers a comprehensive list of amenities for the wedding party and their guests. The hotel is well-known for its customer service. There is a spa at the hotel, as well as an award-winning restaurant. The grounds are exquisitely maintained and provide a beautiful backdrop for many of your posed portraits. The hotel goes above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of your day is exactly as it should be.
