When you are choosing a wedding venue, it can be easy to get caught up in looking at the ambiance and elegance. These are things that are incredibly important for your wedding venue as they will set the tone for your wedding. However, you also need to remember other logistical factors that are sometimes overlooked.
Accessibility
At your wedding, you might be having guests of all ages attend. Some of these guests may have walkers, wheelchairs, or strollers. If this is the case or if you think some of your guests may have plus-ones with disabilities or accessibility concerns, you want to make sure you choose a wedding venue that is accessible. Choose a venue with wide walkways and hallways, ramps and elevators near stairwells, and handrails. Accessibility features will help your guests stay safe and enjoy your special day.
Parking Options
Your guests will all need to get to your wedding, and most people will probably opt to drive. A great wedding venue will have plenty of parking options available to make it easy for guests to arrive and get to and from your wedding. When you are inquiring about a venue, ask if they have a lot, garage, or designated parking spaces. If none of those options are included, ask what public parking is nearby. This is especially important if you want a venue located in a crowded city or if you are getting married during the winter months when the roads and sidewalks will be icy.
Inclusive Catering Options
Food is one of the best parts of any wedding. This is because food is something everyone can enjoy together. A lot of people have food allergies, food preferences, or other dietary restrictions. Even if you know your guests quite well, you may not know all of their dietary restrictions. It is important, then, to opt for catering that provides inclusive yet tasty options. Be on the lookout for caterers who offer things like vegetarian, gluten-free, nut-free, and other options.
Things like accessibility, parking, and dietary restrictions may not be the first thing you see when you walk into a wedding venue. However, they are still very important because they affect you and your guests directly. Accounting for these pertinent logistics is crucial for helping your guests truly enjoy your wedding.
