Your Guide to Hiring Small Wedding Venues in Melbourne
Planning a micro wedding can feel overwhelming, but Tagvenue is here to help make it easier. From setting a budget to finding the perfect small wedding venue, our tips and answers to common questions will guide you through the process.
Here are some essential tips to consider before you start your search for the ideal micro wedding venue:
- Go Off the Beaten Track – If you're on a tight budget, consider booking a micro wedding venue slightly further afield in a beautiful setting. This can save you money, leaving more for your honeymoon!
- Think Numbers – Determining your guest list size is crucial early on. Knowing the number of guests helps you choose a small wedding venue that matches your vision for a small, intimate day.
- Location, Location, Location! – Once you've decided on numbers, it's time to find a venue. Melbourne offers stunning small wedding venues, including unique outdoor garden locations perfect for your big day.
- DIY Your Way – Personalize your wedding with DIY decorations. From seating charts to centrepieces, creating your own decor ensures a unique touch to your micro wedding venue.
- Flower Power – Flowers symbolize important aspects of your relationship. Choose colours and types that represent your values and emotions, adding a meaningful touch to your wedding day.
- Get a DJ or Live Band – Music sets the tone for your wedding. Whether you prefer disco, rock, or jazz, splurge on a DJ or live band to enhance the atmosphere at your small wedding venue.
- Capture the Moment – Hire a professional photographer to document your special day. Look for someone whose style matches your vision, ensuring you have beautiful memories to cherish.
- Pick a Theme – Select a theme that reflects your personality and style. Popular options include vintage, boho, rustic, and more. Coordinating your attire and decor with the theme enhances the overall aesthetic.
- Check Out the Menu – Food and beverages are key elements of your celebration. Choose a small wedding venue with great catering options, or opt for external catering. Consider BYOB to save on drink costs, or hire a private bartender for a special touch.
