Starting a wedding venue is exciting, but the reality of running one can look very different than expected. From becoming the plumber and maintenance person to building systems that actually allow a venue to grow, the journey requires more than just loving weddings. In this episode of the Venue Nest Podcast, hosts Ashley Shepherd and Kelsey Smith sit down with Braden, a Venue Nest partner and multi-venue operator, to talk about his journey from real estate investing to scaling wedding venues. Braden shares the challenges of starting from scratch, creating systems, hiring the right venue directors, managing managers, and finding the balance between collaboration and competition in the venue industry. He also explains how those experiences helped shape Venue Nest into a platform built for venue owners and operators. 00:00 The Reality of Venue Ownership 02:13 Braden's Entry into the Wedding Industry 05:58 Hiring the First Venue Director 07:44 Advice for Overwhelmed New Owners 09:43 The Search for the Right Software 11:05 The Creation of Venue Nest 14:38 What Separates Venue Nest 16:00 The Challenges of Managing Managers 20:08 Outro Join our free community! https://live.venuenest.com/signup Follow Us Instagram https://www.instagram.com/venuenest Facebook https://www.facebook.com/venuenest YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@VenueNest TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@venue.nest Website https://www.venuenest.com/ Venue Nest Podcast https://www.venuenest.com/podcast
