Barn Wedding Georgia: Important Points To Note When Venue Searching

By Janet Kennedy


When planning for their weddings, many couples tend to lean towards church settings as opposed to hip venues. Lately, however, there has been a noted increase in demand for farm settings. Many young couples are often mesmerized by glistering photos of chandeliers, Christmas lights, laces and mason jars. If you are planning a barn wedding Georgia, these insights will guide you towards making a prudent decision during the course of your search.

To begin with, the monetary aspect is the first important thing to look at. When looking at costs, you will note a big difference between farm and church held weddings. By simply looking at photos, you may assume that a farm nuptial is way cheaper than the latter. Many tend to think farm weddings cut costs as couples do not have to part with extra money for banquet halls. Nonetheless, this is wishful thinking.

The only great thing you are assured of is the location. Many first timers forget that they still have to budget for chairs, utensils and tables. In a nutshell, you ought to do the setup from scratch, even if you have a designated wedding planner.

Cost wise, a church nuptial is pretty different from one held outdoors or in a farm. The positive thing about a church venue is that you get seats that are prearranged. In case you go for a banquet hall for the reception, you may not necessarily have to transport seats from elsewhere.

Another thing to remember is that not all farms have electricity. Most are powered using off grid systems. In some instances, you may find that these systems do not generate enough electricity to power up your equipment.

You will certainly require enough power for your hired DJ to play music and for your public address equipment. Furthermore, the catering department will require power to keep the food warm. These factors will certainly take your spending on an upward spiral.

Besides the aforementioned, many towns have laws that guard against noise pollution. As such, some farms may require that all events end as early as 9PM. If you were looking forward to hosting an overnight reception, you will have to be in a more liberal town. For convenience, inquire about this early on.

Just like in a home search, location is important as you look for your venue. If you are expecting plenty of guests, some of them may need accommodation, more so those traveling from far. The most ideal location would be a farm located close to hotels. Luckily, there are many farms situated near towns.

Finally, remember most farms have animals, vegetables, fruits and workers. Whatever you do, you should always think of upholding the rules that are meant to keep the farm in its original shape. If no smoking is allowed in the grounds, put up appropriate signage to make your guests aware of it. At the end of the day, both parties should be happy.
