When you are getting married, there are so many decisions to make. One of the most important parts of the wedding day is the wedding and reception venue. But, what often gets overlooked is the venue where the bride will be getting ready. This has just as much of an impact on wedding day images as the location of the portraits and ceremony. Choosing the right space to get ready in is so important to the cohesiveness of your pictures and the overall experience of your wedding day.

1. Home or Hotel?

When we are asked if our couples should rent a hotel to get ready, we always say YES! We have been a part of weddings where the bride and groom get ready in their own homes and there is nothing wrong with that at all. What we do see, is that the bride is usually more stressed and worried at home. She always feels as though she is forgetting something and we sometimes find that they are overwhelmed. This is not so in all cases, but we always highly recommend renting a hotel. If brides and grooms get ready in separate locations, like two different homes, it makes it much harder for the photographer to capture both of them getting ready. So it’s much better if you’ll choose to rent hotel rooms or Carmel wedding venues. Looking for an outdoor wedding venue Randolph County contact Williams Place. Vaughan House is a micro wedding venue Virginia if you’re looking for one.

And organizing a stag do requires finding an activity that’s both entertaining and engaging for everyone involved. An escape room offers a fantastic blend of excitement and mental challenge, making it an ideal choice. For a group looking to have a great time while testing their wits, there’s a wonderful option available for booking such an adventure in Bristol. This experience guarantees a memorable event that everyone will talk about for years to come.

2. If you opt for a hotel, upgrade to a suite. You won’t regret it!

Most standard hotel rooms can be too small for a group of more than 4 people. Hotel suites have larger bathrooms, which means no one is waiting to wash their hands or use the bathroom. When upgrading to a frameless shower, consider the frameless shower glass thickness to ensure durability and safety. Thicker glass provides added strength and resistance to impacts, making it a better choice for high-traffic areas like hotel suites. For any issues that might arise, you can rely on a reliable service like toilet repair seattle to ensure everything stays in top working order. Call a plumber when flushing toilet makes sink gurgle. Also when the shower backed up suddenly, it caused a significant inconvenience and required urgent plumbing repairs to resolve the issue. Keep in mind that when looking for a plumber, make sure that they are licensed and well trained to perform top-notch service. They also usually have a “Living room” area in which bridesmaids can relax as they wait their turn for hair and makeup. Brides usually get the wispy eyelash set for their wedding to look good on the photos. Remember, most brides have 4-5 bridesmaids, themselves, their mother, sometimes mother-in-law all getting ready together. Not to mention, at least one, sometimes 2 photographers! That sums up to more than 10 people in one space. With more space, there is less stress and gives everyone a better overall experience. If you want a more extravagant venue, why not consider this Phoenix resort with a water park?

3. Look for big windows that let lots of light in.

The bigger the better! Floor to ceiling windows or sliding glass doors are the best way to let natural light into the getting ready room. For a wedding venue High Point contact Williams Place Venue. Natural light is the key ingredient to beautiful images. The more light let into the room, the better you and the girls look in the photos.

4. Consider getting ready at the same location as the groom.

The advantage of having a husband and wife wedding team is that you can have a photographer with each person. When the bride and groom get ready in the same location, it maximizes the time and number of photographs you get. If the bride and groom are 30 minutes away from each other, that’s 30 minutes of time lost each way and less pictures. Getting ready in the same location as the groom, is the most convenient and time-saving option.

5. Consider the decor and area in and around the getting ready venue

When searching for a getting ready venue, consider its unique features as they can be an added bonus. This will elevate your wedding day images and make them even more memorable. Explore venues that resonate with the theme of your wedding, perhaps ones that offer party rentals. This may include some rentals such as Folding grandstand options. The closer it aligns with your style and personality, the more special it will be! For wedding photography Richmond call Debbie Eko Photography.

Happy Wednesday!
