Are you recently engaged? Just starting with your wedding planning? First of all, congratulations! Planning for your wedding can be an incredible experience – but we also know it can be a bit stressful. There are so many things to consider as you plan, and one of the first is where to host your wedding, and which vendors to use.

While we all might want a beautiful, unforgettable wedding, we also need to mind our budget – no one likes being hit with hidden fees or skyrocketing costs. In this video, one of our wedding experts AND Regional Director of Sales Krissi Trevino discusses The Truth About Wedding Vendor and Wedding Venue Pricing in this brief, helpful video.

Learn the right questions to ask your venue and vendors to avoid hidden fees, and to make sure you fully understand your total costs.

Those initial low price points might not be so enticing once you figure in the final price!

And don’t worry! If you want more assistance with pricing, or you want someone to help you negotiate pricing with vendors, you can always work with an on-site wedding coordinator or wedding director at the venue you choose. These wedding experts often have established relationships with trusted vendors, and can help you navigate the sometimes murky waters of wedding venue and vendor pricing. Most properties on Country Club Receptions have a dedicated team available to assist you as you begin your wedding planning. Browse through venues at www.countryclubreceptions.com.
