Things to Consider When Picking a Wedding Venue


My name is Hardy Klahold- I'm a wedding photographer living in Denver, Colorado. I'm German and when I proposed to my American wife, I was not aware of the routine I started with her, “YES”:
After we set the budget, chose 2-3 possible dates, started a guest list, and decided on the wedding style, we had to find the perfect venue. 



If you are in the same situation, you should give yourself a few weeks (1 to 3 max) to check and tour all of the possibilities, keep the numbers in mind, and picture your wedding day there. So what are you looking for? Look at your wedding as a picture. In this picture, you find yourself on your most important day in your life surrounded by all of your family and friends. Your wedding represents your style and the venue provides the frame of your wedding day. 

If you have a simple and elegant wedding, you don't need a castle. Your country-style wedding fits best somewhere in the mountains, outside with a beautiful barn as a backdrop. If you prefer the urban-style elegant wedding, a rooftop right in the middle of downtown would be your place to be. It is important to set your to-do list right and everything else just falls into place.
Sometimes my clients asked me for my favorite wedding venues, they want me to give them a referral. Of course I have my favorite venues where I shot weddings. There was castle Friedewald in Germany, built in 1491, which made for a beautiful backdrop for a wedding I shot. If you are more looking for a beach destination wedding, I love to shoot at the Kapalua Golf Club on Maui. 
Maybe you are more the mountain wedding bride and you still like the elegance of a nice Hotel: I love to shoot weddings at “The Broadmoor Hotel” in Colorado Springs, Colorado. If you want a spectacular mountain view, I recommend in the 5 star hotel, “The Little Nell” in Aspen and plan your ceremony on the wedding deck standing 11,212 ft high on top of the mountain.

Whichever venue you pick, make sure it suits you, your budget, and your style.  I promise you that your wedding photos will show your special day in the most perfect way.
