Most often, couples become “Facebook official” with their venues first.
We have had countless tours with couples saying they are canceling their contract with another venue because of the additional fees, misunderstandings, and tricky wording. Listen in for tips to not get screwed over by wedding venues!

​When you are planning your wedding day, it is no surprise that the majority of MOST couples’ wedding budget goes toward a venue. It’s ALSO normally the first or second vendor that couples hire, so (most often) this is their first step into wedding planning.

As I was doing research for Episode #09 on Behind the Party Podcast I did a quick google search for “Wedding Themes” and to my surprise, I saw countless articles using the terms “Wedding Themes” and “Wedding Styles” interchangeably. In my opinion, and based on how my brain has started to categorize wedding terminology after 5 years in the industry, I view Themes as an overarching aspect of your event.

Wedding Theme Examples:
Halloween, Disney, Garden, Day of the Dead

Whereas style is more about the visual aspect of your event. The personality of a wedding, and almost like picking a style for your home.
​
Style Examples: Modern versus vintage, elegant and black tie versus a casual evening

From our team discussion, we determined that we all believe that not all couples need a wedding theme. However, a wedding STYLE will always help with your vision of the day, so we definitely recommend always having a style in mind. A style will also help you and your significant other's vision and personality not get lost or left behind in the chaos of planning!

Hello again!

Today we’re diving into the point of view of the venue and what we wish more people would ask during tours. 

We want everyone to feel comfortable and confident in their booking process and know what their getting into.

The venue guide is also going to help with process because we have included all the good questions to ask. SO go get that venue guide (BELOW).
Part 3 is what we’re going to cover here and it includes 17 questions we wished more people would ask us as a venue.

Haven’t listened in to the first part?
Maybe even start with episode / blog post #01 “Engaged, Now What?” To get the most of the guide.

Jenna’s favorite question for couples to ask:

• “Will we see a venue team member day of?”
  • Why it’s a great question to ask: Feeling supported during your day is worth more than you  realize. Having someone show you where things are, help with building questions, are a basic need and knowing that team member is easily accessible for you is at minimum - reassuring.
