Which beautiful venues in and around the Metro can you book for your wedding?

Looking for the right wedding catering services for your upcoming marriage might be a straightforward affair. But even if you already have a catering service and a concept in mind, how can you make it happen without the right venue?
Just because you have an outstanding program or exciting food to serve doesn’t mean that you can overlook the area where your wedding reception will take place. The perfect wedding venue can actually have a huge impact on the overall nuptial event, so don’t take any of its elements for granted. Your choice of venue could significantly affect the program or the decoration. The right location could also play on the emotions of both the newly-weds and their guests. Lastly, your guests are going to scrutinize the area they are in. They are going to ask questions such as “Does it fit the theme?” or “Is it worth the accommodation?”
When talking about the best catering in Manila, there’s going to be a lot of options; same with deciding on a venue. Here are five of the most appealing wedding venues you can find in and around the Metro:
The Versailles Palace
Location: Almanza Dos, Las Piñas, Greater Manila
If you want to feel the vibe of a royal French court, Versailles Palace in Almanza Dos is the perfect place to celebrate your love and marriage. Inspired by the world heritage site located in France (from which the venue also takes its name), the Versailles Palace already sparks the notion of a luxurious wedding.
From a distance, you could already spot the poolside, the trellis, and a gazebo which calls for its outdoor ambiance, especially during sunset where you could see the reflection of the surroundings on the pool. The veranda is just one of their locations for hosting events. It can be divided into three areas or you can rent it as a whole. Should you decide to book their grand ballroom, then the veranda can serve as an area for cocktails and conversations. There are waiting areas where your guests could pass the time while waiting for the program to start.
No matter where you look, you will feel a sense of royalty and the treatment of a princess/prince when you decide to book your wedding venue at The Versailles Palace.
