What is a wedding venue?

A wedding venue is typically a large building, or sometimes an open-air site, that is available for weddings and wedding receptions. These venues are typically all in one solution for your wedding with a large ballroom or banquet hall. Often the entire property is yours to use for your wedding.

Weddings continue in popularity around the world and there is a growing market for venues that can provide you with a complete service from ceremony to dinner to dancing all under one roof.

What types of wedding venues can purchase?

There are several types of properties that can be wedding venues that you could buy, including:

  • - Country Club
  • - Castle or Manor House
  • - Small exclusive Hotel with ballroom and restaurant facilities
  • - Boutique hotel with wedding facilities
  • - Private Mansion House
  • - Exclusive vacation resort or retreat
  • - Historic site
  • - Anything in between

Typically, zoning regulations and capacity limits may limit the number of people on property, so make sure to check with your local broker to get more information.

What is the difference between a wedding venue and a banquet hall?

A banquet hall is typically a large space for holding catered events, like weddings or conventions. A wedding venue on the other hand, is not just a big room capable of seating lots of people. Wedding venues are typically complete packages with all the amenities you need for a wedding. Wedding venues also specialize in just weddings so they have the expertise to provide everything a wedding needs.

What should be considered when purchasing a wedding venue?

Location: Ensure that there is proper demand for the area and that the actual location is accessible during as much time of the year as possible.

Capacity: Be sure that your venue will accommodate the number of guests you plan to be able to handle.

Amenities: Ensure that the venue has all the amenities you are looking for. This includes space for a dance floor, proper commercial kitchen, grounds for outdoor portions of the wedding, and accommodations for the bridal party.

Facilities: Carefully consider what types of event can be hosted at your proposed location. Focusing on just weddings is a specific business decision, but having flexibility in your facilities may allow for additional revenue during less popular times of the year.

What other considerations are there when purchasing a wedding venue?

Insurance, taxes, and cost of utilities are other factors to keep in mind as wedding venues work year-round and should accommodate all kinds of weather and timing of events.

Many people who are interested in purchasing a wedding venue have already run other types of businesses like a restaurant or catering service. This may be particularly helpful when considering buying a wedding venue since you already understand what it takes to run a business in that service industry.

Reach out to a local broker to get a better understanding of the market for wedding venues in your area.
