Next up, consider your guest list. How many people are you inviting? Are you looking for a large venue that can accommodate everyone, or do you prefer a smaller, more intimate setting? This will help you narrow down your options and avoid wasting time looking at venues that won't work for your guest list.
Location is another important factor to consider. Do you want a venue that's close to the city center, or do you prefer something a bit more rural? Christchurch has plenty of options when it comes to wedding venues, so think about what kind of setting you want for your big day.
