6 Quick Ideas to Diversify Revenue at Your Wedding Venue

The Venue Podcast

Wedding venues should diversify their revenue streams to maximize earning potential. Here are six additional revenue stream ideas for your wedding venue:

1. In-house bar: Offering a bar service at your wedding venue can generate considerable revenue. This revenue option has many responsibilities and additional liabilities, which must be considered. There are numerous ways to run a successful bar; as mentioned, it can provide a massive return.
2. Accommodations: Consider adding onsite lodging to your wedding venue. Onsite lodging can be anything from cabins and cottages to tiny homes and rooms for guests to stay overnight.
3. Farm store: Consider opening a farm store if your wedding venue is rural or on a farm/ranch. Examples of things you can consider selling are retail goods, cottage products, anything that is small-batch, custom-branded gear, the list goes on.
4. Wedding planning: Offering wedding planning services can be a great way to generate additional revenue. Most venues require, at minimum, that their couples hire Day of Coordination. Bringing this in-house is easy and effective at creating extra income, not to mention the benefits of marketing this inclusion.
5. Decor rentals: Many couples seek unique decor to make their weddings stand out. You can offer decor rentals at your venue, including everything from centerpieces to lighting to furniture.
6. High-ticket Events: You can host educational conferences and workshops at your venue. This can range from industry-specific conferences to personal development workshops. Events generate high ticket sales and add another revenue stream for your wedding venue.
