Are you engaged, have you picked your date to get married and now have visions of planning the perfect wedding day? Every bride, or even bridegroom to be must surely have the vision of their perfect dream wedding venue.

It can be a simple ceremony in a park, near the beach, at a luxury resort or even out by your pool (I hope you have a really big yard or are planning a very small wedding). Here are my tips and tricks for help researching, finding and booking your dream wedding venue to make it the perfect day for you and your future spouse.

Make Your Dream Wedding Happen

Once you’ve narrowed down your choices at Bijou Venues, browsed through their website and requested a copy of their brochure, it’s time to call your wedding planner to help you book a visit to the site of your dream wedding. There’s nothing like seeing the venue in question up close and personal to make sure it really is as nice as it looks in the official brochure.

Then once everything looks okay, it’s time to set the date, book the venue, finalize the guest list, send out the invitations, plan the ceremony, set the menu, pick your favorite cake and frosting combination, choose the music, and on and on and on – this is where I highly recommend enlisting the services of an experienced wedding planner.

Make Your Dream Wedding Fun

Planning your dream wedding shouldn’t be stressful – it should be fun! Hiring the services of a wedding planner can help you with everything from finding the perfect venue to a variety of other services including:

  • Wedding stationery for the perfect invitations
  • Wedding gift registry
  • Wedding seamstress to create your custom wedding dress
  • Wedding videography and photography including a photo booth
  • Wedding music including a band or DJ team
  • Wedding flowers and table and venue decorations
  • Wedding cake and other sweet creations
  • Wedding hair and makeup stylists for you and your wedding party
Wedding specialists can help you plan the design and decorations for your wedding venue.

Make Your Dream Wedding Delicious

Once you’ve said, “I do!” the day isn’t over, now it’s time to be the perfect wedding host and hostess and say thank you to all your friends and family as they help you celebrate your day. The perfect wedding venue should not only be able to host your wedding but should also be the perfect setting to host your wedding reception and accommodate all your guests.

Once you’ve booked your dream venue, the next step is to coordinate with your planner to help with all cocktail, appetizer, buffet and meal planning including help with choosing the menu, the table settings and the perfect team of banquet chefs to prepare a delicious meal for you and all of your guests.

Some of things you can do to help make your wedding delicious including choosing your favorite wedding cake, canapes and appetizers, beverages and cocktails and finally – what’s for dinner!?! Besides the traditional sit down dinner, a delicious yet elegant lunch or even breakfast buffet are great options if you’re planning your wedding ceremony and celebration for earlier in the day.

Make Your Dream Wedding Stylish

A wedding venue company can help you find the perfect location for your special day. Choose from beautiful flower filled parks, stately country homes, elegant mansions, or impressive chateaus (wedding in a castle!?! Yes please!). A wedding stylist can not only help you find the perfect wedding dress, they can also help you pick out the perfect bridal accessories, flowers, decorations and hair and makeup artists.

Make Your Dream Wedding Unique

Finding the perfect dream wedding venue no longer has to be difficult. Going with a trusted family-run and family-owned business who have many years of experience, and an entire team of trusted wedding specialists to make this day – your Wedding Day – the most memorable and magical experience of your life. You can stay stateside or book a dream mansion or chateau wedding venue in the UK or the South of France
