You’re engaged, now it’s time to pick a venue for your wedding!
When it comes to picking a wedding venue, you’ll want to look into several factors! First and foremost, you want to ensure the venue represents your style. If you’re wanting photos that are light and airy, it may not be the best decision to choose a venue that’s known for being dark with low lighting and vice versa. Next, you’ll want to look at the venues packages! Typically, each venue offers different packages based on price, time, and additional accommodations and services that are included! Finally, it’s important to look at the location of your venue. If you plan on taking photos in additional locations aside from your wedding venue, you’ll want to make sure you’re located close to those areas to lower travel time.
Choosing your venue is important because over half (sometimes more!) of your wedding day is spent there! That’s why I’ve listed three of my favorite Topeka, Kansas wedding venues I’ve photographed throughout my time as a wedding photographer!
If you like what you see below, I’d LOVE to chat about photographing your wedding 🙂
