Add your VendorWhat are the cheapest types of wedding venues in Victoria?
If you are planning a magical wedding at affordable rates, you should know about the types of cheap wedding venues. There are many places where you can find budget-friendly wedding venues in Victoria. But there are some things that you have to keep in mind while choosing the perfect setting.
First of all, you need to decide what type of venue is suitable for your dream wedding day. Then, you need to check whether it has everything that you require. Finally, you must ensure that the price is affordable and compatible with your wedding budget. The most popular affordable wedding reception venues include:
Park/beach – Parks and beaches with beautiful gardens, sweeping views and beautiful backdrops are perfect for outdoor wedding celebrations. You can rent out parks and beaches for an affordable price. Additionally, they are open 24 hours a day. Therefore, you can plan your rustic wedding anytime.
Backyard – Backyards are a fantastic option for small wedding parties. You can invite your friends and relatives to your backyard event. Your wedding guests can enjoy themselves without having to worry about any issues.
Restaurants – Restaurants are great options for small weddings. They provide an ideal setting for intimate gatherings with close friends and family. To find a budget-friendly setting, we recommend staying away from award-winning restaurants.
Banquet rooms - Banquet rooms are another excellent choice for couples looking for cost-effective wedding venues. These rooms are spacious and offer floor-to-ceiling windows with stunning views, affordable onsite wedding catering and a blank space to decorate with personal touches.
Indoor halls - Indoor halls are also good choices for to-be-weds looking for an intimate wedding venue. They are usually decorated beautifully, so the costs of decoration and rentals will be low. They also offer additional wedding services such as a wedding photographer and first-class food you can choose.
Bed & Breakfast - If you're looking for a boutique wedding venue, bed and breakfast inns might be a good option, especially if you want to stay away from the hustle and bustle of city life and enjoy amazing views.
Museum, Library or Gallery - Museums, libraries, and galleries are an excellent option for those looking for a unique experience and a contemporary venue with fabulous city views. These places create a perfect backdrop for wedding photos, with the artworks displayed.
College or university- Colleges and universities are great options for couples looking for an outdoor space with beautiful views and low venue hire prices. They offer a stunning setting for a memorable event.
Convention centre - Conventions centres are also among the favourite locations of couples looking for affordable options. They offer a variety of all-inclusive wedding packages for couples.
How to find cheap wedding venues in Victoria?
If you're searching for a cheap wedding venue in Victoria, there are some tips you can use. First of all, you can prefer a daytime wedding or a brunch reception. Rental fees will be lower since most couples opt for an evening reception.
You can have a winter wedding in the offpeak season and save so many costs due to the low demand during this time. You can see that the typical cost will be much lower during colder months.
Additionally, we recommend cutting down your reception time. Instead of a 5-hour venue rental, rent your perfect location for a couple of hours. You should also know that the prices are lower in rural areas than in the city centre.
We also recommend searching for a venue with a flexible package since you wouldn't want to pay for something that you don't prioritise. With these packages, many contracted wedding vendors offer discounted rates, and the price per head will be lower.
Last but not least, you can also cut many costs on other aspects of your big day. For example, you can rent a wedding dress or buy a second-hand one. Additionally, you can hire a food truck instead of a plated dinner.
What questions should we ask when searching for affordable wedding venues in Victoria?
The wedding venue is perhaps the most important aspect of booking vendors for your big day. It's where everything will happen and set the tone for the entire day. Everything depends on the venue, from the decorations to the timeline to the wedding dress you envision. It's a big decision to find the ideal one, so we put together a list of the most important questions to ask:
- What is your guest capacity?
- How long will we have the venue?
- Is there any hidden cost?
- Can we have our wedding ceremony here too?
- Is there catering on-site?
- Can we bring 3rd part vendors?
- Is there room for the bridal party to get ready together?
- Do you provide complimentary decorations?
- What's included in the rental fee?
- Do we have access to the entire venue for our photos?
- Is there a smoking area?
- Do you provide onsite accommodation?
- Is the venue child and pet-friendly?
- Are there any noise restrictions?
- What's the required deposit?
