What is Venue?

A venue is the physical location where an event is held. Choosing the right venue is one of the most important decisions in event planning, as it sets the tone, determines capacity, and often influences other choices like catering, decor, and timing. Venues can include hotels, banquet halls, restaurants, outdoor gardens, beaches, barns, museums, or private residences. When selecting a venue, consider factors like capacity, cost, availability, location, parking, accessibility, and what's included (tables, chairs, catering, etc.). Many venues require booking well in advance, especially for popular dates.
