Check the list of provided materials.

Some venues might only provide very minimal materials and equipment, so do check the number of chairs provided, if a sound system is included, and if they have other props available for your use. It’s good to make an initial inventory of what is available so that if you need to rent, you can reserve the other items you need ahead of time.

Come up with a wedding layout that will provide more privacy.

Most government venues are public places and the last thing you want is a whole audience of people you don’t know watching your special day. You can fix your setup so that you have more privacy. For example, choose to face away from the crowd, or hold the cermeony an area away from passageways.

Do a very thorough ocular inspection of the venue.

It is very, very important that you do a thorough inspection of the venue so you can make the necessary adjustments in case of constraints or concerns. Some important venue details you should check are the following:

  • Car parking slots
  • Drop off for vendors’ materials
  • Storage areas for supplies
