Are you aiming to get married in 2025? There is a lot to sort out: the dress (if applicable), the guest list, the rings, and the venue. For some people, choosing a venue is usually based on location and cost, with many people opting for a location near their home, which is cheap.

However, for your big day to go off without a hitch, you will want to ensure the venue where you say your vows and have the reception has all the amenities you need. How can you ensure this? By choosing a modern venue! Here, you will be guided through why it may be time for a wedding that is from the future, not the past, and how this can help ease the stress of your big day.

All-Inclusive Packages

A modern wedding venue is more likely to offer you and your guests an all-inclusive package than a traditional one. This means that you won’t need to worry about booking separate catering, music, hiring chairs, and even booking an outdoor space; everything you want and need will be included.

Of course, if you plan to get married at a hotel, you will also likely have the bonus of having rooms on hand, meaning you and all your guests will have somewhere to stay.

Accessibility

If you have ever visited a stately manor, or even been to a castle that is hosting weddings, the accessibility is rarely great. Simply put, many of these buildings have strict codes, which means lifts or ramps can’t be placed where needed.

With a modern venue, you don’t need to worry about accessibility as there will be standard ramps, lifts, and other options built into the location.

Personalization

Speaking of older buildings now hosting weddings, few can accommodate what you and your partner may want on your big day. With a modern venue, you will likely be able to choose the lighting for the reception that you want, and the music system you want. There may even be the option to place different furniture in the reception/eating area for you and your guests to relax.

Travel

OK, so there are few (if any) castles that host weddings that are accessible via public transport, meaning that all of your guests will need access to a car if you opt for a traditional venue. With modern venues, there is the benefit of them being accessible via an array of different transport options, meaning everyone on your guest list can find the location and easily get there.

On-Site Catering

This was briefly mentioned earlier, but many modern venues that host weddings will also likely be able to offer on-site catering. This means that you won’t have to hire a catering team, who may cost a lot of money and will need to get to the location in good time to serve you and your guests the food. It’s all included, customizable to your guests’ dietary requirements, and, as it is prepped on-site, there is no need to worry about the food being served cold!
