Local Wedding Destinations
If you are planning a local wedding for ceremony, reception or both, below are some venue selections. Be sure to visit our preferred vendors below to get matching favors for your local destination.
Restaurants/Hotels $$$$: Restaurants and hotels are a popular choice because they can be easily accessible after the ceremony as parking is good. It may have sentimental value as it could be a place he proposed or where you had your first date. You should ask about pricing for a private room or if it is a non peak time, perhaps the whole restaurant. Pricing options depend on the catering choice, chicken and fish being the least expensive and steaks being the most expensive. Generally there are room charges but some venues may not charge if there the minimum food requirement is met.**consider transportation after the ceremony to ensure no one gets lost, make sure directions are in the invitation and at the ceremony**
Parks $: Most parks offer rental areas for a nominal charge. This is a fabulous option as you can be cost effective and provide for a sentimental and personalized setting. Make sure to find areas for rest room conveniences, water and catering areas. **You may not know what else is happening that day, please check to see what else is scheduled. If there is a baseball game, there may be competing noise or crowds**
Theaters/Performance Halls $$$: This is an elegant choice as you can feel like a celebrity and may fit your wedding theme. You can cater and have his/her photo show displayed as a Hollywood scene. **Check out to see what other venues are occurring the same night. You may not want to compete with other noise or crowds**
Museum/Library $$: This is an elegant choice because you offer your guest some history and sophistication. Rentals are varying and you will have to find catering.
Beach (if you have accessibility)$: A very popular choice as it sets the romantic theme and mood. You will have to coordinate the details for the ceremony and reception. Some cities require permits for alcohol, some do not allow. Since most beaches are open to the public, it is often very busy and the dates may be limiting.
