Not only because you want to pick the perfect place but also because you have to make sure your fiance loves it just as much as you do *and* it has to fit your style, budget and be available on your desired wedding date, too. I remember when my husband Jay and I were looking for a wedding venue. We had dozens of tabs open on our computers and it was so overwhelming! How were we supposed to narrow down our selections? There are so many things to consider and there are lots of articles out there with tips on how to pick a wedding venue (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bridalguide.com\/planning\/the-details\/reception\/wedding-venues\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">check this one out!<\/a>) but very few articles on things to consider from a photographer&#8217;s perspective. My goal today is to shed some light on a few things that couples should consider when choosing a wedding venue. Perhaps these four things will help break the tie between your top two contenders. And if you&#8217;ve already booked your venue, then this will help you keep a few things in mind that you may not have thought of.<\/p>\n<h3>Does your venue have a spacious bridal suite with plenty of natural light?<\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">If your wedding day is taking place at one location, you&#8217;ll definitely need a spacious bridal suite for you, your bridesmaids, and mother to get ready in. Make sure that there is enough space not just for you and the special ladies in your life, but also for the hair and makeup artists to work and for your photographer to work, too! It&#8217;s really important to have plenty of window light for these types of portraits. Check out Katy and her bridesmaids below &#8211; she had the most gorgeous light for her getting ready photos:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-43668 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/things-consider-choosing-wedding-venue_0002.jpg\" alt=\"spacious bridal suite at Park Chateau\" width=\"1520\" height=\"1139\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/things-consider-choosing-wedding-venue_0002.jpg 1520w, https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/things-consider-choosing-wedding-venue_0002-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/things-consider-choosing-wedding-venue_0002-1024x767.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1520px) 100vw, 1520px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">If your venue doesn&#8217;t have a bridal suite with both plenty of space and natural light, consider getting ready at a nearby hotel or even renting an Airbnb. Our bride, Megan, pictured below, did this, and it worked out perfectly! She had a huge victorian house to hang out with her bridesmaids the night before and the morning of her wedding and she had the prettiest rooms for her getting ready photos. Airbnb&#8217;s will generally be much more spacious than a hotel room so they&#8217;re a really great option!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-43667 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/things-consider-choosing-wedding-venue_0001.jpg\" alt=\"bride getting ready with her bridesmaids in an Airbnb\" width=\"1520\" height=\"1140\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/things-consider-choosing-wedding-venue_0001.jpg 1520w, https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/things-consider-choosing-wedding-venue_0001-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/things-consider-choosing-wedding-venue_0001-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1520px) 100vw, 1520px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Also! Don&#8217;t forget about your groom! Make sure there is a spacious and well-lit place for him to get ready with his buddies, too!<\/p>\n<h3>What is the Plan B for your ceremony location in case of rain?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Outdoor ceremonies can be so gorgeous!! Personally, I love outdoor ceremonies and the relaxed nature of them, but no one can deny the added stress that an outdoor ceremony may bring due to potential weather challenges. To avoid some of this stress, have a Plan B in place for your ceremony in case of rain; and make sure you love your Plan B as much as possible. This way, if you have to resort to it, you won&#8217;t be as disappointed. From a photographer&#8217;s perspective, something you may want to look out for is if your venue&#8217;s Plan B is to have your ceremony take place in the ballroom. If this is the case, make sure you find out if the tables will be in a separate room or if they&#8217;ll be visible to your guests. We&#8217;ve had so many brides be disappointed when they found out fully-set tables would be visible during their ballroom ceremony.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-43669\" src=\"https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/things-consider-choosing-wedding-venue_0004.jpg\" alt=\"Outdoor ceremony at The Rockleigh\" width=\"1520\" height=\"1016\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/things-consider-choosing-wedding-venue_0004.jpg 1520w, https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/things-consider-choosing-wedding-venue_0004-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/things-consider-choosing-wedding-venue_0004-1024x684.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1520px) 100vw, 1520px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-39529 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/bonnet-island-estate-wedding-editorial_0010.jpg\" alt=\"Indoor ceremony at Bonnet Island Estate\" width=\"1520\" height=\"2277\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/bonnet-island-estate-wedding-editorial_0010.jpg 1520w, https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/bonnet-island-estate-wedding-editorial_0010-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/bonnet-island-estate-wedding-editorial_0010-684x1024.jpg 684w, https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/bonnet-island-estate-wedding-editorial_0010-1068x1600.jpg 1068w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1520px) 100vw, 1520px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Does your venue have enough grounds for your first look and portrait session?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"p2\">When booking a venue, couples normally prioritize the ballroom and the food. After all, they want their guests to have an amazing time! However, don&#8217;t forget to check out the grounds and imagine your portraits there.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-45950\" src=\"https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/ashford-estate-wedding-photos_0064.jpg\" alt=\"Bride and groom at Ashford Estate\" width=\"1520\" height=\"1016\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/ashford-estate-wedding-photos_0064.jpg 1520w, https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/ashford-estate-wedding-photos_0064-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/ashford-estate-wedding-photos_0064-1024x684.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1520px) 100vw, 1520px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-39761\" src=\"https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/pleasantdale-chateau-wedding_0035.jpg\" alt=\"Bride and groom at Pleasantdale Chateau\" width=\"1520\" height=\"1016\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/pleasantdale-chateau-wedding_0035.jpg 1520w, https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/pleasantdale-chateau-wedding_0035-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/pleasantdale-chateau-wedding_0035-1024x684.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1520px) 100vw, 1520px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>If your venue lacks sufficient grounds then consider checking out local parks and gardens to take your wedding photos. Make sure you do this well in advance of your wedding as many parks and gardens require a reservation and permit. Reach out to your photographer for ideas on nearby places as he\/she might be able to recommend good portrait locations. I love that my couple, Jamie and Matt, reserved Frelinghuysen Arboretum for their wedding portraits before their ceremony at Olde Mill Inn. It was just a few minutes drive away and it gave them the variety they wanted for their portraits.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-43670\" src=\"https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/things-consider-choosing-wedding-venue_0005.jpg\" alt=\"Frelinghuysen Arboretum wedding\" width=\"1520\" height=\"1016\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/things-consider-choosing-wedding-venue_0005.jpg 1520w, https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/things-consider-choosing-wedding-venue_0005-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/things-consider-choosing-wedding-venue_0005-1024x684.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1520px) 100vw, 1520px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re getting married in Spring Lake, be sure to check out this iconic bridge at Divine Park.

A popular choice in my area is Wilson Hall at Monmouth University:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-40283\" src=\"https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/grand-marquis-wedding-photos_0032.jpg\" alt=\"bride and groom photo at Monmouth University\" width=\"1520\" height=\"1016\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/grand-marquis-wedding-photos_0032.jpg 1520w, https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/grand-marquis-wedding-photos_0032-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/grand-marquis-wedding-photos_0032-1024x684.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1520px) 100vw, 1520px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>What is the Plan B for your portrait session in case of rain and\/or wind?<\/h3>\n<p>I hate to bring rain up again, but there&#8217;s always a risk that it&#8217;ll rain or be really windy on your wedding day. If the weather doesn&#8217;t cooperate, make sure you have a game plan for where you will do your bride\/groom, bridal party, and family portraits. You won&#8217;t want all of your photos in the ballroom, trust me!<\/p>\n<p>It rained for most of Ali and Nik&#8217;s portrait session but, luckily, their venue had plenty of photo opportunities indoors where we could stay dry while we waited for the rain to die down.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-43671\" src=\"https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/things-consider-choosing-wedding-venue_0006.jpg\" alt=\"Legacy Castle wedding photos\" width=\"1520\" height=\"1016\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/things-consider-choosing-wedding-venue_0006.jpg 1520w, https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/things-consider-choosing-wedding-venue_0006-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.idaliaphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/things-consider-choosing-wedding-venue_0006-1024x684.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1520px) 100vw, 1520px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I hope this post has been helpful to you in choosing your wedding venue!
