Let’s go over some of the top reasons why wedding venues have specific rules in place in their contracts.
Every wedding venue has different rules and regulations that they ask those renting the space follow. Understanding these rules is very important, as breaching the contract you’ve signed or breaking the rules could have big consequences. In this blog, we’re going to go over some of the top rules that wedding venues have, as well as explain why they’re so important.
Different Wedding Venues and Their Rules
Every wedding venue is unique and has specific guidelines that must be followed while using the space. Adhering to these rules is important and will ensure that you’re not breaching your contract. With that being said, it’s important that you ask specific venues about their rules while you’re touring. This can help you narrow down your different venue options and ensure that everyone’s on the same page about how the space is going to be used.
Alcohol
One rule that’s common between wedding venues is no hard alcohol. While this certainly isn’t the case at all venues, it’s not an uncommon guideline that many different venues have.
Different venues have different reasons for instating this rule, but many of them have to do with local regulations or safety concerns. If hard alcohol is something that you’re set on having at your wedding, it’s important that you communicate that while you’re examining your different venue options.
Structure
Another important reason why venues have specific rules is that it can provide structure. Many venues have back to back bookings or weddings within a tight space of time, which means that they need to make sure one wedding is completely wrapped up and cleaned up before the next one begins. This can be very stressful for venue staff if a couple doesn’t clean up properly after their wedding, so it’s important that there are specific guidelines that state what cleaning is and isn’t required.
Making sure that you’re aware of and comfortable with cleaning requirements is a great way to narrow down your venue options. If one venue is too strict for your taste, then you can easily cross them off the list. On the other hand, if they have cleaning fees that are appropriate or provide help throughout the cleaning process, then that may help you make your final decision about which venue to select.
