20 Questions to Ask Before Booking Your Wedding Venue 🤍

When searching for your perfect wedding venue, it’s easy to fall in love with a beautiful space. But asking the right questions can help you find a venue that’s perfect for you.

Here are 20 questions we’d recommend asking at every venue viewing:

✨ What is included in the venue hire?
✨ Is the venue exclusive use?
✨ How many guests can the venue accommodate?
✨ What ceremony and reception spaces are available?
✨ Do you have an all-weather option for ceremonies?
✨ Can we personalise and decorate the space?
✨ Can we use our own suppliers?
✨ What catering options are available?
✨ Can dietary requirements be catered for?
✨ Do you offer a menu tasting?
✨ Are dogs welcome?
✨ Is there accommodation nearby for guests?
✨ What time can suppliers access the venue?
✨ What time does the celebration finish?
✨ Are there any restrictions on music or entertainment?
✨ Can we have confetti?
✨ Are there any additional costs we should be aware of?
✨ How long can you hold our date for?
✨ Who will be our main point of contact throughout the planning process?
✨ What makes your venue unique?

At Southwood, we encourage couples to ask as many questions as they like during their viewing. There are no silly questions when it comes to planning one of the most important days of your life 🤍

🤍 What to Expect at Your Viewing at Southwood 🤍

A viewing is your chance to really feel how your wedding day could flow and start picturing your celebration coming to life.

We’ll begin in your main ceremony room, which later transforms seamlessly into your beautiful wedding breakfast setting – a true “ceremony to celebration” reveal.

After your ceremony, you’ll head outside for drinks and photographs, making the most of the grounds with your guests. 🥂✨

You can then enjoy your drinks in either the bar or on the outdoor terrace, depending on your style and the feel you’re looking for.

As the day moves into evening, the main function suite transforms into your party space, ready for dancing, celebrating, and everything in between. 🎉

We’ll also talk through your ideas, answer any questions, discuss availability and provide a transparent estimate so you leave with a clear picture of your day.

Most importantly, it’s relaxed, friendly, and all about helping you imagine what your Southwood wedding could look like. 🫶

We’d love to show you around – book your viewing today.
