In this episode of the Your Wedding Unlimited podcast, Abby Lynch breaks down one of the most important (but often confusing!) parts of wedding planning - your venue contract.
Your wedding venue is usually your biggest booking, and with that comes a lot of fine print. Abby explains what to look out for, the common hidden costs couples miss, and how to make sure your contract truly protects you. From access times and setup arrangements to catering policies, minimum spends, and decor restrictions, this episode helps you feel confident and in control before you sign on the dotted line.
Whether you’re planning a countryside barn wedding, a modern city celebration, or a coastal marquee, this is essential listening for any couple booking a wedding venue in the UK.
