Don’t get caught in a Wedding Factory

What is a Wedding Factory and why should you avoid them?

In America they call the Wedding Factory a McWedding (as in McDonalds) because everyone picks from the same menu and it’s the same wherever you go, it’s the same Big Mac in Southampton as it is London.

Don’t get me wrong, many things will be the same wherever you get married and that’s not necessarily a bad thing. However, some venues give very little choice and your wedding may well be the same as all of the weddings they host.

Some venues even restrict the suppliers you use. One of my couples from last year even changed their venue because they wanted me to MC and DJ their wedding but the venue insisted they use someone they provided.

Another point to consider is that many venues advise you to skip some traditions, like a receiving line, because they don’t want to organise anything extra. What’s a receiving line? CLICK HERE to find out and then YOU can decide if you want one or not.

Please also note, just because a wedding venue hosts lots of weddings doesn’t mean it’s a wedding factory. Many busy venues still offer a personal service with lots of great options. If you want my feedback on any venue please message me.

If you don’t want a McWedding and want to avoid the Wedding Factory please take a look at my Your WOW Wedding booklet – just email me and I’ll send you a link, it’s absolutely FREE.

Finally, if you really want a wedding that is unique maybe you could consider a destination wedding and go abroad. My new venture with Gary and Gail as Fuerte Fine Weddings can help you plan a fabulous celebration of your love with a ceremony and party in Fuerteventura. CLICK HERE to see our website.
