Choosing the location for your wedding venue is a huge first step in any wedding preparations. This is one of the biggest choices you will have to make for your wedding. However, what follows are seemingly smaller choices—like choosing your entertainment, your cake, your wedding dress, and so much more—that can make it hard not to get overwhelmed.
Being in the tri-state area, it can seem like there are more wedding service providers than one could ever research or discover. Here are some suggestions on how to find exactly what you’re looking for in a vendor.
- Ask Us: Having hosted 100s of different types of weddings, we have compiled quite the list of local companies to help realize your wedding day theme. You can visit our site (this will link to the vendors page) to see a selection of some of our preferred vendors. Or by talking to us directly and getting to learn the exact theme of your wedding, we can draw on our experience to suggest a vendor you might have otherwise never heard of!
- Wedding Sites: As any web-savvy bride-to-be knows, there are seemingly an infinite number of wedding how-to sites, which often have their own lists of recommended vendors. While larger, national sites like TheKnot.com are great sources for getting ideas for your wedding, it also helps to look into local wedding sites that focus on the New Jersey area to get a better idea of the options in the immediate area. One great site that we’re huge fans of is MyWedding.com!
- Friends and Family: As it’s very likely that either someone in your extended family or circle of friends has gotten married in the past year, this is a great place to start in finding vendors that match your taste. After all, your friends and family know you extremely well and can suggest vendors that are ideal for your big day.
While it can be initially daunting to plan your wedding and make the many choices that come along with choosing different vendors, there are plenty of resources right in front of you to help you make your wedding day everything you dreamed about. Often, we find that the most successful weddings selected their vendors through a combination of our suggestions, online research, and recommendations from friends and family. With all of these great resources, we at Nanina’s will make sure you find the vendors that are right for you!
