Let’s talk all about how to find and pick a wedding venue! I am going to cover how to pick your wedding venue, basically the entire step-by-step process to researching, finding and booking your perfect wedding venue, including the questions you MUST ask while you are venue shopping so that you can make sure you know exactly what you are getting into before you sign that contract. Oh, and it includes a free worksheet for you to bring along with you on your tours so you can be sure you ask the right questions AND that your contract has everything that it needs to before you sign. Even if you have already booked your venue, you are going to want to watch and grab that worksheet so you can be sure you don’t have any surprises pop up on you leading up to the big day. Wedding planning surprises are usually expensive.
I also teach you some tips and hacks for using The Knot website to plan!

Yes! I have one venue that ignored my request for pricing and just invited me to come tour. I gave them some availability but asked again. They finally sent the venue rental fees and said we'd talk about catering when I got there. Big red flag to me. I went through their material and saw that their required starting catering fee was DOUBLE what I had budgeted. Every other vendor has been great at giving me full pricing details.

@TheUnveiledBride 4 жыл бұрын

That’s crazy! Yeah if they aren’t upfront with pricing when you ask, it makes you wonder what else they are going to be sneaky with 🤔

My fiancé and I are breaking our heads between having our wedding reception on a Friday, Saturday or Sunday due to the pricing. Friday is $85 per person, Saturday is $120 per person and Sunday is $60 per person ! It’s insane how much cheaper it is depending on the day of the week. Sundays price is amazing, but we’re afraid our guests won’t be able to enjoy the night as much as if we were to have our reception on a Saturday.

@TheUnveiledBride 4 жыл бұрын

I think your guests will be able to enjoy, no matter which day you choose! I agree that a Saturday wedding is easier for most people logistically, especially if you have a lot of guests from out of town. But I think people could make a Friday work too!! Personally, I would go with the Friday!

@moondust3526 3 жыл бұрын

Would you suggest just one part of the couple email the vendors or cc the significant other as well?

@TheUnveiledBride 3 жыл бұрын

I think it's good to cc the significant other if they want to be involved! Just be sure someone is the point person so there isn't any confusion on who responded to what, etc.

Hi I’m looking for videos on venues, I’m having a problem with Venue & I already gave the venue my deposit. When I booked they told me the starting price for food & beverages, gave me a mock up example & said when we got closer to the date we’d finalize the menu Now I’m 1 month away and talking to them to create my menu she is charging me $25 more per person & saying that there hotel is going thru renovations & now any parties over a certain amount of people is that amount Can they do do this ? I never changed the amount of guests I’m getting so much anxiety

@TheUnveiledBride Жыл бұрын

If they gave you the menu with the contract, they have to stick to that. The only way they can bump up the price is if you change the menu. If they gave you a “starting price” they have to be able to come up with a menu for you that fits that, as long as it’s in the contract.

@valerieHenderson32 Жыл бұрын

@@TheUnveiledBride thank you so much hun, I ended up having to speak with hotel manager and he understood & honored the menu with the price🙏🏽

How the heII did my boss learn to establish and work great receptions, if she's never even had one for herself? Her experience, knowledge and skills as an UNmarried woman is so ironic.

Hey Kelsey! I used to be a wedding planner, but I kind of retired from that to stay at home with my 14 month old! I started this channel because I still LOVE weddings, and I wanted to continue to share all of this knowledge that I learned along the way. I say "kind of retired" because I still plan weddings and lots of parties for my close friends!

If you spend $30,000 on a wedding, you’re nuts or a millionaire. Lol. More brides need to be more willing to compromise. It’s all marketing anyway. I learned quick to not settle on type of venue. There is actually research out there that spending more on the wedding day scientifically correlates to the marriage lasting shorter… hum… value values, your man, your family, your marriage… more than trying to build some fantasy one day experience

@MHSMagicLuver Жыл бұрын

Not nuts. Just something people really want. Like me. I have been with my fiancé since 2013, engaged since 2018. I make 105k a year and fiancés hopefully soon to be job will be around 80k. We waited this long so we were both done for school and can afford what we wanted. Our budget is 30k.
