A discussion about bridal shower venues

Who doesn’t want to hear how to keep costs down when renting wedding venues?  Very few out there are rich enough where cost is not a major factor when planning a wedding.  Most of us are feverishly looking for affordable wedding venues, inexpensive wedding venues, or downright cheap wedding venues.

And we won’t even mention the cost of reception venues, which is like doubling the cost of everything.

Hopefully, this article will help.  We plan on giving you the greatest secret to keeping costs down when renting wedding venues or, for that matter, reception venues. We are Tarrant Events Center, serving the Greater Fort Worth Metro area with a quality, inexpensive option for all manner of events. Call us at 817-996-3636 for more information and to arrange for a tour of our event center.

But now, we want to share that secret with you!

The wedding venues reality all too common

The reality, for many in the past, and many in the future, is going into debt when it comes time to plan and pay for a wedding and reception.  The wedding venues are expensive, often between $1,000-$10,000, and reception venues are in the same price neighborhood.  Then tack on the cost of a caterer, decorations, entertainment, set-up and take-down fees, and surprise surcharges tacked on by the venue management, and is it any wonder that people dread planning a wedding?

Worse yet, with some wedding venues, you don’t really have an option. Many will require you to use their caterer to prepare and serve food. Many will require that they provide the decorations. And many require that you choose entertainment from a list they provide you.  And you can count on the prices of those secondary costs to be inflated.

We are happy to report that it does not have to be that way, and we know that for a fact because we run Tarrant Events Center a different, more affordable way.

Welcome to the world of DYI weddings

When we built Tarrant Events Center, our purpose was to create a multi-use facility which was flexible in design so that it could accommodate any type of event.  One day is might be a convention center. The next day is might hold a wedding, and the next a banquet hall.

Our design allows us to do that. We have ten floor plans for clients to choose from. We have a movable stage. We have over an acre of landscaped grounds, allowing clients the flexibility to hold indoor and outdoor events.

And we don’t charge a thing for food, decorating, or entertainment, because we have nothing to do with any of that. All we do is rent out a space.  Our clients have the freedom to arrange for catering, arrange for decorations, arrange for entertainment, or provide those things themselves with DYI flair.

And great amounts of money are saved by doing it our way!

Imagine holding a wedding and a reception at the same venue.  Imagine cooking the food yourself and then keeping it in our finishing kitchen until it is needed. Imagine coming in early to decorate.  Imagine finding your own discount entertainment. All of these things cost copious amounts of money, and all equal savings when you adopt a DYI attitude and find an event center like Tarrant Events Center.

A final word about Tarrant Events Center

We are locally owned and operated, meaning we are Texas born and raised, Texas dollars remaining in Texas communities, neighbors helping neighbors.  If you want more than a cookie-cutter wedding venue, which cost an arm and a leg, go somewhere else. If you want flexibility which will save you money, call us at Tarrant Events Center.
