A fabulous wedding is about much more than just the size of your budget.
Launching your marriage with a dream wedding — whether it's at an elegant hotel, in a spacious reception site, at an intimate restaurant, or in a fantasy outdoor setting — takes knowledge, insight, and planning.

Before you choose your venue, visit several settings and meet the key personnel.
Do you have a "chemistry" with the people who will be helping you create your day? Do you need a planner?

Your venue is the largest single expense of your wedding, so you should be very comfortable with your selection, and be able to trust the suggestions and advice your banquet managers will be providing.
