5 Things to consider when choosing your perfect wedding venue
1. Budget
Our budget should be the first and most important consideration when choosing the right wedding venue. While some might be fortunate enough to have no budget restraints, most should have a clear idea of their overall budget.
Having a clear budget will also help us narrow down our options. There are hundreds, if not thousands, of beautiful wedding venues in Singapore, and it can be overwhelming to consider all of them.
2. Location
Although Singapore is a small island nation, and you can get anywhere in about an hour, the location of your wedding venue should also be carefully considered. For example, you should consider whether an MRT station is nearby or the venue is easily accessible by taxi. Certain venues will require some walking to get to, so accessibility for the elderly can be a challenge. If the venue is in an area that is hard to reach, like Mount Faber Peak, it might be necessary to cater buses to pick up your guests at the nearest MRT station.
3. Capacity and Layout
Another important thing you must consider for your wedding venue is the number of people it can hold and the venue's layout. You should find a venue that can host slightly more than the number of guests you invite. This will give you some extra seats in case you have last-minute guests. If you plan on inviting 180 people, consider looking for a venue that can hold up to 200 people. You should also avoid booking a venue that can hold considerably more guests than you plan on inviting, as it will make the venue look empty. For example, if you invite 200 guests to your wedding, don’t book a venue that can hold up to 500 people. It will cost more and won’t look good in photos.
The venue layout should also be carefully considered if you plan on hosting games and activities during your wedding ceremony. A good layout can help with the flow of your wedding day.
4. Style and Theme
The style of your venue should match the overall theme of your wedding. If you plan on having a fancy “Great Gatsby” type of wedding, you should look for venues that suit that theme. The ballroom's architecture should also suit that theme, as should the food served. Speaking of food, this brings us to our next point.
5. Food and Beverage Options
We love our food in Singapore — almost everyone has a strong opinion on where the best chicken rice can be found. This is why picking a venue that serves food that will appeal to your guests is important. Additionally, as we are a multicultural society, consider whether you need to have halal food options. Beyond those initial considerations, it’s important to check whether the venue can provide vegetarian options and cater to people with food allergies.
After considering these five things, you should narrow your options and book a venue tour and a food tasting. Beyond that, check if the venue has contingency plans, especially if you book an outdoor venue. Be sure to check if they have a wet-weather plan in place, and if they do, make sure you are comfortable with it. Once you’ve thought about these details, you should have a very good idea of which wedding venue will suit you best.
Now, let’s check out 20 of the best wedding venues in Singapore to help you start your search.
