Indoor or Outdoor?: Many of us have an idea on what we want our wedding look like right off the bat. Do you see yourself inside a gorgeous venue with intricate details, or do you see more of an outdoor space? Consider the time of day if you are choosing an outdoor ceremony. Plan your timeline right and those swoon worthy golden hour images of you and your future hubby will be breathtaking in the vines. Also, think about the date of your wedding. Being too hot or too cold may be uncomfortable for you and your guests. This is definitely something to consider when choosing an outdoor venue.

Getting Ready Space: This depends a lot on your wedding party. Do you have a ton of bridesmaids/groomsmen? If so, it is important that you look into this before booking a venue. Does the venue have good light? Im sure this is something you probably havent even considered but trust me on this one.
