When it comes to planning any kind of celebration, the location should always be on top of your checklist. Contrary to what others think, it’s not easy to look for and book a venue that can accommodate a big group of people on your preferred date. Of course, you also need to consider its amenities, if it’s accessible to all, and the budget involved. I consider myself lucky if I’m able to find a venue that meets most (if not all!) of these requirements. Otherwise, I need to spend a few more days looking for a backup plan.
When narrowing down your options, make sure you consider venues that are convenient for you and your guests, places that offer all-in and customizable packages at a reasonable price, and are flexible enough to accommodate your requests and conditions. Once you’ve finally selected and booked a venue, trust that everything else will follow. You can do tweaks on the theme and decorations, work on the caterer, and even make a list of games and activities!
