The Right Wedding Venue
When you start to plan a wedding, finding the right venue can be
a challenge with so many options and locations to choose from.
The most popular locations are the ones that can offer packages
for an indoor and outdoor wedding. Many brides will choose a
location for it’s beauty and location. Sure every Bride wants a
beautiful wedding and it starts with the location. However don’t
let the looks of the venue be the only deciding factor. I highly
recommend you ask about the service and get a good feel about
who is running the venue. Do they really care about your wedding?
or do they just care about your money. Will they listen to your
concerns and take care of your needs after you sign a contract?
It still surprises me when I see the venue coordinator leave after
the food is served or even after the ceremony is over. Some venues
don’t even offer a wedding coordinator so they can sell their venue
for a cheaper rate. Are yo really getting a good deal?
When you visit locations ask about coordinating, and if somebody
will be there every step of the way to help ensure a smooth flow.
If the site coordinator is inexperienced and may exit early, you may
want to consider hiring a professional day-of coordinator.
Good coordinators make my job much easier for many reasons.
I recently performed a wedding ceremony and reception for the first
time at Corta Bella.
This is a new and very nice venue located in Sun City. The ceremony
area has a great view overlooking a lake, and the ballroom is very
inviting with many windows. But the one aspect of this venue I noticed
right away was the service. The staff was friendly and the on-site
coordinator was on top of his game the entire time to make sure
everything ran smooth.
Fred Hernandez at Corta Bella is one of very few coordinators I’ve
worked with that will stay all night to ensure everything and everyone
is taken care of.
What a concept! You can tell Fred really cares about his job and his
guests.
A bride has enough things to worry about the day of her wedding. She
shouldn’t have to work to coordinate her own wedding. How can you
enjoy one of the biggest days of you life with family friends.
Same goes with wanting to DJ your own wedding using an IPod. Who
wants that stress for their wedding?
When you decide to take the venue tours for your wedding, make sure
you ask about the service too. does that coordinator really care? or are
you just another date filled on the calendar?
