Traditional or quirky? You can ring the changes
Plenty of different venues
Choosing a suitable venue is one of the biggest decisions a bride and groom have to make when organising their wedding.
And Ayrshire is fortunate to have plenty of choice when it comes to venues, with some of the most famous buildings in the city now offering wedding day packages.
Whether you prefer a small wedding with just your nearest and dearest, or want to go all out for your big day, the city and surrounding areas offer something for everyone.
The wedding venue you pick will determine the number of guests to invite, the location and the styling, so choosing a venue is a big deal. It sets the tone.
Brides- to- be are often overwhelmed with the choice and booking process.
But before you make any venue decisions, you need to make a draft budget and decide the type of wedding that suits your personality.
It could be a swish, sophisticated hotel with style and class or a romantic fairytale setting with medieval grandeur.
The truth is, it’s your big day and once you find your perfect venue many couples say that it feels right when they walk in.
Some couples opt for very original ideas including wigwam weddings where the couple are married inside a tipi complete with fairy lights in what would be a truly intimate service.
And for the reception they can hire a bigger wigwam for the guests to party the night away in.
So you have picked the venue? What about dressing the room? Those finishing touches are so important in helping you make it a unique day that suits you and your partner.
