360° virtual tours been a significant help to wedding venues for some time now and we are expecting to see a huge increase in the use of these videos over the next weeks and months. With the current lockdown and social distancing regulations in place, now is the perfect opportunity for wedding venues to have their 360° wedding venue tours created.

The Big Day 360's cutting edge virtual tours allow movement to any position in the venue with amazing viewing options such as the "dolls house perspective" which shows the entire space on the screen.

This allows clients to view your venue 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, from anywhere in the world. Not only helping potential couples to gain confidence in booking your venue, but avoiding the need for them to leave their homes unnecessarily during the pandemic. When they do come for a final show-round, they will already be confident in their choice.

Top Features of a 360° Virtual Tour

  • Once recorded, your 360° venue tour can be shown anywhere online, including on your Guides for Brides listing, your website and on social media.
  • The tours are mobile-friendly, which equates to well over half of the traffic online.
  • By adding "hotspots" you can present the viewer with videos, photos, written descriptions and links to webpages that are relevant to that particular area of the tour.
  • You can showcase your recommended suppliers by featuring elements of their work in your tour and identifying them in the hotspots.
  • The tour allows very accurate measurements to be taken of anything on the screen. An ideal tool for your clients when planning their event or for suppliers who need accurate venue measurements.
  • You can also capture great quality 2D images from the tours.
