While for many, the end of the holiday season signifies the end of a joyous time, the excitement has only just begun for the lucky couples who get engaged over the holidays. Just as the New Year prompts fresh starts and revamping to-do lists, it’s also a time to shift out of the engagement dream state and get down to the business of wedding planning.
Choosing a venue is the best place to start. Your venue sets the stage for everything else you’ll plan. The right venue should not only reflect your unique personality and style but also enhance the experience, turning your dream wedding into a reality.
