WEDDING VENUES

So many wedding venues!  Louisville, KY is truly a great place to have a wedding, but where to start looking without just typing "Wedding Venues Louisville KY"  Google is a start, but SBC is the answer.

From the moment he asks and you say “YES” the next biggest question is “WHERE”.   Whether you want an elegant evening gala or a festive afternoon soiree, a decadent indoor ball or an outdoor garden affair your reception should reflect your style and requires careful planning when selecting from the many different Louisville wedding venues.

When you begin your planning process start with a preliminary guest list to determine what size venue you will need to accommodate your guest comfortably.  You want a venue with a layout that will not be too large that it loses its intimate feel or one that is too small that will cramp your guests.  Next, decide if you would like your ceremony and reception to be at one venue or at two.  If you chose one location, determine if there is space for the ceremony and reception to be in two separate rooms or if the room will need to be flipped during a cocktail hours.  By just answering these two questions you can narrow your list of wedding venues in Louisville, KY.
