When your big day in the planning stages, there are few things that need to get sorted out as early as wedding venues and the dress. Choosing a dress is a process that takes time and has a lot to do with your personal taste and the theme and location of the nuptials themselves. However, deciding on the location of the event is also a big and sometimes time-consuming part of planning the day.

One of the first things you need to decide is the size of your event. If the idea of ​​a large occasion makes you cringe, go for a smaller, more intimate event where just those closest to you will help you celebrate. The upside of this is that by not inviting everyone you've ever met, you'll have a lot more choice when it comes to wedding venues. Not only that, you will have the opportunity to really focus on the details of the day instead of simply the logistics of pulling it off.

A boutique hotel

One of the most elegant and simple wedding venues for your big day is a boutique hotel. Although it may not be able to hold a huge number of guests, the inconvenience and elegance of a private function room in a boutique hotel gives an extra air of magic to your big day. You will have staff who are knowledgeable of their establishment, the timely and the needs of the guests. A boutique hotel can often provide all the food and beverages for a reasonable price and can handle the before, during, and after service. In addition, the guests can stay in the venue for the reception, or you can book out a nearby tavern, pub, or function room and the guests can simply come back to the hotel for their rooms. There are boutique hotels in pretty much any location you could desire: from Devon to the Isle of Skye, there is one that will fit everyone and every budget.

Country houses and listed buildings

While some country houses are boutique hotels in and of themselves, there are several that are often open to the public and available as small wedding venues. Not only are there country houses that can provide a sense of grandeur for your day, there are also loads of small castles or rooms within castles that are perfect for that intimate event you've been dreaming of. Like a boutique hotel, country houses and listed buildings often provide staff to ensure events run smoothly. Although these venues may not be able to provide accommodation for the wedding party and guests, and you may need to hire in a catering company, they are often able to provide contacts for hotels, B & Bs and caterers who can help make your day run smoothly and beautifully.
