When you're starting to plan your wedding and taking the big step from dreams into meeting potential venues and suppliers, the reality of the situation quickly sets in.
Not only is this one of the most exciting times of your life (planning a celebration to publicly declare your love - so cool), but it can also be of the most daunting and sometimes, a little overwhelming too.
The tricky part is that most couples are getting married for the first time and want it to be awesome.
Read that again.
You have never done this before and yet you want it to be incredible.
You're going to need some guidance, a reality check every now and then and some resources to make sure that you're tracking in the right direction. Yes?
This wedding venue checklist will help you make some of your important decisions clearer when it comes to narrowing down the list of potential places to celebrate your wedding.
For some couples, wedding planning is less about ticking boxes and more about creating something that feels unmistakably you. You might feel the pull to put your own personal stamp on things and make creative decisions for your wedding that resonate with your values and loves, whether that be particular colours, aesthetics, fonts, pets, photos or even a monogram.
If that sounds like you, designing your own wedding invitations can be one of the most satisfying parts of the process. Not only because it is the cheapest option, but because it gives you a chance to shape the look and feel of your wedding from the very beginning. It can also be a lifesaver if you are planning on a shorter timeline and need something customised and beautiful, fast.
