We have those relatives and friends that should share in the fun like everyone else. So, how do you choose a venue that fosters an inclusive celebration?
Why Accessibility Matters
Everyone deserves to celebrate comfortably and participate fully in your special day. Creating an accessible environment demonstrates respect and inclusivity for all guests.
Also, by removing physical barriers, you can embrace loved ones with diverse needs, enriching your celebration with their presence. Maybe you have that lighthearted uncle on a wheelchair whose jokes will keep the mood jolly, or that cousin with a big heart whose presence means the world.

● Restrooms: Are accessible restrooms available, with grab bars, lowered sinks, and adequate space for maneuvering?
● Parking: Are designated accessible parking spaces close to the venue entrance?
● Seating: Are there dedicated spaces for guests with wheelchairs or limited mobility? Is there flexible seating with removable chairs for those who need more space?
● Flooring: Is the flooring level and free of obstacles like stairs or uneven surfaces?
● Sensory considerations: Can lighting be adjusted for guests with light sensitivity? Is there a quiet space for those who need sensory breaks?
Beyond Physical Accessibility
● Communication: Provide information about venue accessibility on your wedding website and invitations. Consider offering translated materials or large print options.
● Assistive technology: If needed, inquire about the availability of hearing aids, assistive listening devices, or amplified sound systems.
● Vendor selection: Choose vendors who understand and cater to diverse needs, from photographers offering accessible poses to caterers providing dietary options.
Remember
Even small changes can make a big difference for your guests with disabilities. Talk to your venue coordinator, vendors, and guests to ensure their needs are met.
By creating an inclusive space, you’re sending a message of love and acceptance that resonates long after the celebration ends. So, go forth, lovebirds, and make your wedding a haven of inclusivity, joy, and lasting memories for all!
