Thinking of a beach ceremony, a garden celebration or a hall reception? Check who manages your chosen place. For a hall or other indoor venue, ask the venue manager about wedding hire and availability.
The details to settle
Ask whether your location can be booked exclusively or remains open to the public, and request current fees, setup conditions and the application deadline. Published older fee schedules should not be used as a current quote.
