Historic Houses – Enchanting Wedding Receptions. Want to add charm and character to your special day? Historic buildings and houses with lush lawns and gardens guarantee stunning group photos and family portraits. Take advantage of their timeless elegance to set the stage for an enchanting wedding.

Private Mansions – Stately Homes. Is lavish decor and grand architecture what you envision for your big day? A stately home is just the place. These spectacular homes are grand, impressive, spacious, and guarantee unforgettable moments.

Open Air Spaces – Breathtaking Views. Dreaming of nuptials under the stars? A rooftop bar with city views or a hidden gem beer garden are a few of the many venues that can host exceptional outdoor wedding ceremonies and receptions. Don't exclude the idea of getting married under a gazebo in a park, on the lake shore or under majestic trees in the forest.

Book a vintage diner for your retro-theme wedding, a private dining room for exclusive use or a trendy restaurant and wine bar for late-night dancing.

Essentials for a Wedding Location

Considering a wedding in the open? Or is a beach house what you dream of? Whatever the location, there are some things a wedding can not go without.

Is there enough space? When choosing a wedding venue, you should consider the size. Book a space with a large capacity if you are planning a big wedding. The last thing you want is an overcrowded venue, no space to dance, and people pressed up against each other.

Do you have a wedding theme? A wedding theme will set the tone that reflects you and your partner. Do you want something romantic, vintage or natural? Personalize your special day with theme-related decor and create a special ambience for everyone to enjoy.

How about a backup plan? If your wedding is out in the open, you may want to have a backup plan in case of inclement weather. This could be a marquee, a sturdy canopy, a large tent or a ready-to-go indoor venue.

Planning Your Wedding

A lot goes into planning a wedding, whether you want to hire a wedding planner or give a personal touch with a DIY celebration. From wedding decor to live music bands to wedding cake cutting and catering, these helpful ideas will guarantee a seamless planning process.

Make a Guest List – Are you dreaming of a big wedding or an intimate reception with your closest friends and family? Align the guest count with your budget, and once you know the number, start searching for a wedding venue. Don't forget to send invitations at least three weeks prior to the wedding.

Choose the Wedding Venue Type – Finding the right venue for your big day is the trickiest part, as you may have to search for two: a licensed wedding venue for the wedding reception and another venue for the ceremony. Do you want to get married in a church and throw the party on a rooftop bar, or do you want to use the same venue for both? Perhaps you want to have the civil ceremony in a stately home approved by a registrar? Whatever your decision is, start contacting venues in advance to secure your space.

Practice for the First Dance – Most couples nowadays turn their first dance into a fun act. Whether you want a slow jam, a tango or a bachata dance, take some classes to prepare yourself and wow your guests with your "Bridal Dance".

Plan the Wedding Food – Serve your guests a feast for your wedding, and don't let a soul leave hungry. You have so many catering options; whether you want a three-course meal or a buffet style, ensure there are plenty of food options and healthy food substitutes for guests with allergies and specific diets.

Wedding Expenses to Consider

Allocate a decent wedding budget, but don't invest beyond your means, no matter the wedding style or venue. Discover wedding venues on Giggster that start at just £17/hr.

Are you providing overnight accommodation?

Many wedding venues on Giggster offer accommodation for long-distance guests and anyone who wants to keep the party going. This could be a part of the wedding package or arrangement between you and the guests. Offer to share the cost; if your budget allows, don't let them pay a penny.

What food are you serving?

Food can be the most expensive part of your wedding, so choose your menu wisely. If you want to save money, a buffet is the right choice. Whether you decide on in-house catering, want to cook the meals yourself, or serve light snacks and finger food, a good rule of thumb is to allocate at least 40% of your total wedding budget for catering.

Wedding vendors come with a cost.

Whether you are hosting a wedding in the South East, South West UK or Northern Ireland, you will find a number of vendors to help you plan the perfect wedding. However, be prepared to spend. Between caterers and photographers, musicians, decorators and pastry chefs, the costs for wedding vendors can quickly add up.
