95 - Mastering Wedding Floor plans Wedding Planning Collective

    • How To

Hey, folks! It's Kate here, welcoming you back to another episode of the Wedding Planning Collective Podcast. Today, I'm shaking things up a bit. Typically, I start my episodes with questions I frequently hear, but today, let's dive into a topic often overlooked in wedding planning: layouts or floor plans.

Starting with the basics, I break down why having a well-thought-out wedding layout is crucial. It's not the most glamorous aspect of planning, but it can save you from chaos on your big day. We discuss the necessity of having both ceremony and reception layouts, debunking the myth that ceremony layouts are always unnecessary.

Moving on, I delve into who typically handles these layouts and explore the pros and cons of venue assistance versus DIY. While venue coordinators can be a huge help, they often come with limitations on revisions and timing.

We also touch on the practicalities of creating your own layout, including free tools like Aisle Planner, Social Tables, and All Seated. Understanding dimensions, guest flow, and space allocation are key components we delve into, ensuring your layout is both functional and elegant.

Lastly, I provide a comprehensive list of elements to consider when crafting your layout, from seating arrangements to vendor stations, ensuring no detail is overlooked.

And hey, I'd love to hear from you! Have you started your layout process yet? Head over to the Wedding Planning Collective Facebook Group and share your experience.
