Select a Perfect Location for Wedding Ceremony

To choose a Location for Your Wedding Event would seem a simple task, but its actually one that requires a most thoughtful planning and coordination and it is especially so for a non tradition wedding ceremony.

As Wedding Ceremony is an event where the couple unites, many people prefer to hold the actually ceremony at a house of worship, usually the one that bride or groom or some friend or relative attends. In this case the selection of location becomes fairly easy provided the availability of the date the ceremony is being held on. But what happens in the case when the bride- and groom-to-be are of different denominations? More tricky still, how is the situation handled when the couple doesn't have any religious affiliation?

Other than the house of worship there are numerous locations that the wedding ceremony can take place. The location can be practically anywhere – at home, at a country or yacht club, outdoors at a local, national or state park, on a yacht, on a tropical island, at a mountaintop retreat, in a medieval castle, at Disney World – you name it, it's probably capable of accommodating a wedding ceremony.

Before the location is decided on the couple needs to get together to discusses their wedding ceremony location options as there are many to consider.

Before selecting a location, however, you've got to make sure it'll accommodate what you want. Is the location large enough to accommodate all your guests? Are dressing rooms available? Are there electrical outlets for acoustics and/or music? Is the location easily accessible, especially for those with special needs? Can you find someone to officiate at the location?

The amount you'll pay will vary from location to location. When you're finding out the costs, be sure to ask what is included with the price. Make sure the items mentioned are written out on the contract, too. You'll likely be asked to provide a deposit to reserve the date. This needs to be reflected on the contract as well as the balance amount and due date.

There's more to consider about the wedding ceremony than just the location. The music and the vows need special attention, especially if you wish to break out of the 'traditional' mode. The music may be included with the location. For example, oftentimes a church will use its own organist. However, if your budget allows, you may wish to write your own wedding songs and hire a soloist and accompanist to perform them. Or you can hire musicians to match the theme of your wedding. If these types of arrangements are in your budget, be sure to reserve the talent far in advance, right after you've secured the wedding ceremony location.

Selecting the location of the ceremony should happen well in advance of the wedding date, up to 12 months if possible. If you wait too long to reserve the location, you may find it's already booked.
