Indian weddings can burn a big hole in your pocket. If you have a vast, and gorgeous backyard or if you have access to a farmhouse, then you don’t need to be concerned about the cost of renting a wedding venue. But if you are in need of a banquet hall or lawn, the venue itself is going to cost you a bomb excluding services like decoration, food, and so on. To help you out, we have put together a list with which you can cut unnecessary expenses whilst booking a wedding venue in Chennai:
The location:
The coastal metropolis, Chennai is impressively advanced. This makes a lot of tasks simpler and makes your life that much easier. Chennai sits on the Coromandel Coast off the Bay of Bengal. There are plenty of brilliant beaches that will leave you dumbstruck. If you want to save on the rent of the wedding venue in Chennai, the location is bound to play a pivotal factor. If you want a place in the heart of the metropolis, the venue can cost almost double of a place in the outskirts or remote places. The banquets or lawns situated in the prime locations of Chennai are usually expensive because they are always in demand. So, the first step would be to check out a few offbeat wedding venues from the city that would work for you and your wedding guests.
One for all:
It is usually said that the wedding venue is the aspect of your wedding budget where you can save a bit. We often tend to book different venues for the various wedding festivities. If you are going in for a hotel banquet, some hotels and resorts offer the backyard or lawn in the package or at a nominal price. So, this venue can serve as your one stop destination for all the wedding ceremonies. You can also book the hotel’s rooms for the comfort of you and your wedding guests.
Pay in advance:
There are many lawns and marriage halls in Chennai that might offer you a better deal if you pay the entire amount well in advance. It might pose to be risky, but if you are getting a fabulous deal, we suggest you to welcome it with open arms.
Date:
Decide on the wedding date at least 9 months or one year in advance. This would help you search for the best wedding venue and if you book well in advance, you can almost always get the venue at a competitive price. Besides, if you can avoid a date during the peak wedding season, you can snag good deals during the off-season. Try to opt for a wedding during weekdays rather than the weekends. The weekend dates are usually on high demand, so they are likely to be higher up in the price range.
Skip in-house vendors:
Whilst booking your wedding venue, try to look for a place that provides the option of bringing in third party caterers, decorators, DJs, photographers, videographers and alcohol on your own. The in-house services are usually way more expensive than your local contact. So, look for a venue, where you can customise everything to your preferences and needs.
