Within weeks after a couple announces their engagement, they are typically bombarded with questions about their wedding day with one of the most common involving when and where it will be held. Viewing Watsonville wedding halls can be overwhelming, particularly as several of these accommodations have wonderful amenities and boast gorgeous gardens and surroundings. But in order to book the best hall for your wedding celebrations, you need to do this first:
Think about the Logistics
As pressured as you may feel while looking at wedding halls to reserve your spot, the logistics need to be figured out in order to make sure that your big day goes exactly as planned. You will need to think about:
- Who and how many people will be attending the event (having a general guest count is always a good idea)
- Whether the location is easily accessible from where you plan to get married (if it’s not on-site)
- Whether the location is easily accessible for wedding guests
- If you are planning an outdoor wedding, if there is accessible indoor space or a covered area in case it rains
If you know what season you would like to have your wedding in, then you will need to consider other factors when looking at wedding halls. Guests will appreciate an air-conditioned accommodation in the summer and a heated space if you plan on having a winter wedding.
Visit the Venue When You Will Be There
Another great tip to keep in mind when visiting the wedding venue is to look at the hall at the same time you plan on having your wedding or holding the reception. This will give you the best idea of what the atmosphere will be and how the space will look at that time, such as how natural daylight may affect the decor.
Ask If the Venue Is Full-Service
When looking at wedding halls, you will likely run into one of two different types: full-service venues and non-full-service venues.
The benefit of renting space from a full-service venue is that they will have everything that you need to make your wedding complete, from tables and chairs to linens and even caterers. This convenience often comes with a higher price tag, however, and if you have another caterer you would like to use for your wedding, you may not be able to do so.
A venue that is not full-service will only have the space available for use and provide nothing else. This means that you will need to do more work trying to source rental companies, caterers, and event planners, but it also means that you have the freedom to able to create the wedding you have always dreamed of.
