Civil Ceremony Venues Hire Guide
Some expert tips for organizing your civil ceremony:
-
allocate the bulk of your budget to venue hire, catering and drink, and entertainment
-
choose the date of the celebration carefully – sometimes it’s cheaper to book the venue midweek
-
consider whether to provide a dress code (like black tie, formal or fancy dress). You may also want to host a themed ceremony. In that case, think about a venue that suits the mood. How about country house wedding venue for a Downton Abbey-themed celebration or a railway arch for a more industrial feel?
-
plan early and with your purpose in mind because it's those personal touches that'll have your guests talking for years to come
Things to consider when hiring a space for your event:
-
whether you want to have the civil ceremony and reception in the same venue
-
whether it’s important to you to hire a venue with gay staff members or owners
-
the best seating arrangement for your needs
-
the venue's cancellation policy
-
see if the venue works with any recommended suppliers, like caterers
- check the civil ceremony venue’s location and see whether it’s convenient for the guests to get there
