Identify your requirements

So you want to dry hire an African wedding venue or the perfect place to host an African or cultural celebration. What else?

Your requirements do not end with things such as dry hire and African venues, there are plenty of other things to be taken care of. For example, you might be searching for answers to questions like:

• What type of wedding is right for me?
• What should be the theme for decoration?
• Will you hire a venue’s in-house team or an outside company?
• Will you provide your catering yourself or need help suggesting a catering company?

Getting answers to these questions will help you understand your requirements, which can assist when selecting a venue that stands out from the crowd and competition.

Decide on the venue size

This is a point that you should consider whether you are booking a dry hire venue, a full-service venue, a traditional wedding venue, an African venue, a venue that specialises in cultural celebrations or all of the above!

The size of a venue sometimes can be directly associated with your budget, but not always. Sometimes for bigger venues, there is a bigger price tag. However, booking a smaller venue doesn’t automatically mean cheaper, and it can make it difficult for you to accommodate all of your guests and let them enjoy the party.

The best way to decide on venue size is to consider your guest numbers. Before you start looking for a venue, write down the names of guests you want to invite to your wedding. It will help you figure out whether you need a small or a big venue.

Services you require

Although you are looking for a dry hire wedding venue, there are lots of things to be taken care of. From catering to decoration and accommodation, many things need to be organized properly to ensure a smooth event.

If you want to hire external providers and suppliers other than the wedding venue, the venue manager and their team can assist you in a number of ways. For example, they can assist with recommended suppliers and also make the most out of the space and the right arrangements for decorations and theming.

Research your options

If you’ve already narrowed down your options, there are many choices when searching for an African wedding venue in Essex. To ensure that you choose the best among them, it is necessary for you to do your homework properly.

In today’s internet-friendly world, you can conduct your research from the comfort of your home. For example, you can collect information on multiple venues to understand their services. After that, you can match them to understand whether or not that venue is capable of meeting your special needs & requirements.

Hold a Showround and Book in Advance

When you believe that you’ve found a good African wedding venue in Essex or venue for your cultural celebration, it’s time to take the next step – contact the venue and arrange a showaround to view the venue and hold a meeting to discuss your requirements. It will help you decide if the venue is perfect for your event. If it‘s not, move to the next option.

On the other hand, if you believe the venue is perfect for your dry hire African wedding requirement or African Caribbean celebration, book it immediately, a quality wedding venue won’t have much availability, many booked up for years in advance.
