Change of mind on booked wedding venue.... god help me

Oh gosh! You do sound in a tiz!

Calm down - this is, I think, totally normal! I've been going through this myself, although I did (and still do!) adore our venue when I saw it!I think the issue is we have so much choice these days and it's all so accessible - at the click of a button we can see hundreds of different options and its bewildering; no wonder we lose confidence in our choices!

Only you can know if you'll be happy getting married there, but I would say don't do anything hasty. Chances are, if you'd booked this Disneyland wedding originally, you'd be having doubts about that right now anyway! I think we all doubt major decisions like thus. At the end of the day, you're marrying the man you love, in what I'm sure is a lovely venue

Have you been to visit the venue recently? It might be worth taking someone with you who's opinion you trust and then tell them What you think might be a concern. Also try talking to people who work at the venue, if you have a wedding coordinator there speak to them. Sorry it's not much help. Good luck xxx

Hi Ladies,

so after thinking about it today and most of last night..we are going to stick with the venue, we did love it, and there is a lovely chapel on site where we can get married so we will have the church wedding but without the church as such.

i think what has been bugging me is the room we are having our room in is a big room and we have to pay a surplus charge of £500.. and thats on a minimum amount of day guests 115-140.. anything under 115 will be referred to management which means a bigger bill.. and them numbers are not to include children. We love the room we have chosen and the two other rooms are in the actual hotel and any one can walk in or though and the toilets are directly outside. where the room we have chosen is separate from the hotel but a big space.

As much as disney florida would be amazing i couldn't do it, i have too much of a big family and can't expect them to travel all that way, plus we would lose so much more money as we have paid most of our deposits. i think i was just having a moment... it's just a lot of money on top of what we have already paid... 3 years ago it didn't seem a problem, with now only 9 months to go we are panicking as it is a lot of money to pay !!!

Thanks for listening ladies.. all we be fine (i hope) xxx

I have wobbles about our reception venue from time to time. I think could it be nicer, could we go somewhere 'posher' etc. but then I remember walking in there for the first time and the feeling myself and my other half had. How at ease we feel there and lovely the staff are. I contrast that with the feeling we had at a bigger, posher, 'nicer' venue and the snotty coordinator and the quote that made our eyes water!

Wobbles are completely normal - maybe book a visit to go see it and speak to the staff. Or if they have a wedding open day coming up go see it all dressed up and remind yourself why you fell for it in the first place.

I'm glad I'm not the only one!! i am always having wobbles about our venue and although we looked at loads on line, it was the only one we went to actually look around. I just keep reminding myself of all the reasons why we liked and booked it though.

Im glad you are feeling better about your venue now. Maybe go and have another look around it to get that feeling back again.
