Resort weddings are also popular among couples who want to have a laid-back celebration far from the hustle and bustle of the city centre with a modern twist at a tranquil wedding location. Don’t forget to ask whether these facilities have a back-up rain plan in case of torrential rain or sweltering temperatures occur.

If you love cold weather, cosy feels, early sunset and don’t mind putting on a jacket over your dress, having a winter wedding is an excellent option for you. Your chances of finding relatively cheap wedding venues are higher as well since many facilities and vendors are open to offering discounts during the winter months as it's usually the low season.

Experts suggest starting the planning process at least a year before since the likelihood of booking your ideal Hunter Valley wedding venue, and vendors becomes higher. Decide on your budget, guest list and the date as the first step. Then start searching for the best venue for you. Keep in close touch with the venue’s on-site planner to work out the details such as wedding flowers, cateringand photography. Choose your wedding dress, suit, gown or tuxedo since they might need alterations and fittings. Send out wedding invitations 4 to 5 months before your big day so that your guests would have enough time to respond and plan their schedules. Decide on your wedding bands and prepare your vows. Apply for a marriage licence, and set appointments for wedding hair and makeup one month before. Handle the little details and start the countdown!

What questions should I ask when looking for a wedding venue in Hunter Valley?

Start with the general questions related to the availability of the venue on the date you want, its capacity, booking hours and sound limitation. Check whether there’s another wedding at the same time as yours. Ask if you can have your wedding ceremony at the venue and which rooms you can use for that purpose. Learn the guidelines for wedding decorations, preferred caterers, and parking options for your guests. If you plan to have a budget wedding, ask whether they allow for BYO. Continue with the questions related to payment, photography and rain back-up plan if you're having an outdoor wedding. Don’t be shy and ask everything you have in mind for a perfect celebration!
