You've said yes, you've set a wedding budget and you've probably chosen a wedding planner (hopefully), so what is the next step in the wedding planning process? Choosing a venue. The venue that you choose sets the tone of your entire wedding and honestly, becomes difficult to move forward with anything else if you do not have a set venue location. I like to put it as, "No venue, no wedding date." It just goes hand in hand. You can either have your ceremony and reception at the same location or you may opt to have your ceremony at a church and use a very nice reception location. Don't know where to start your search? Listed below are some venues located in the Chicago-land area and neighboring suburbs. We will discuss in another post what questions to ask when visiting venue sites and what to look for. Until then, enjoy the start of your research.
