Things to Consider While Planning a Barn Wedding

 If you are planning to get married this year, choose a barn for rent near you for weddings in NY. Barn weddings are very popular among young couples. Many barns are in outstanding locations, giving you more flexibility to style your day.

Here are some things to consider before hiring the barn.

Power

Usually, barn venues have a power supply. But you will need to consider whether it is enough for your needs.

For example, if your catering service provider has electric cookstoves, will the barn staff manage them, or will you require to bring in an additional power generator?

Bathrooms

Many barns to hire for weddings in NY located in the countryside have no toilet facilities within the premises. So they might have a toilet block outside the barn house, which means your guests need to go outside to use the lavatory. But some might not even have a toilet in their outside area, so you will need to hire some portable loos.

Heating

It can get quite cold in a barn, especially if it's quite large. So you may need to hire some heaters. Generally, gas heaters are best, as electric ones can overload the system, but your venue will be able to advise you on this. You can also get some blankets for your guests to ensure they are contented.

Furniture Hire

This thing can depend on the type of barn wedding venue. Most of the venues don't usually provide any furniture. So you'll need to think about tables and chairs for your wedding ceremony. Furniture for your meal and maybe some sofa sets for an extra chilled-out area.

You may also need to set up a bar structure. Many bar companies have many options for bar structures they will set up if you hire them to operate your bar counter. Again, please talk with your venue staff, as they may tell you to use a specific company for this.

Access

When you visit the barn wedding venue, note the entrance route. It could be challenging in bad weather conditions or for heavy vehicles.

Caterers

A full working kitchen in a barn may not be available, so make sure your caterers have all the essential cooking utensils and equipment they will need to bring with them.

Usually, they will also need to remove all their own trash and garbage, so check with them that they have this in their catering plan. You don't want to be penalized for leaving trash behind.

Décor

Most barns wedding venues provide you with pretty much free decorative hangings. You should know about any restrictions – for example, can you light the candles or not?

And confirm that you will have sufficient time, preferably the day before, to set up your décor items.

Lighting

When you view your wedding venue, it's likely to be in the daytime. So make sure you check the lighting available and your options for bringing more.

So ask staff members about fairy lights or up-lighters to create a good ambiance in the evening. And consider outdoor lighting area too.

Please look at these above mentioned things if you are looking barn for rent near you for weddings in NY.
