Choose Wedding Venues
That are Right for You

 

The right wedding venues can really set the mood for your event -- it is the stage where your wedding will play out.

To narrow your search for great wedding locations, start thinking about venues that relate to your wedding's theme or season.

If your theme is “Spring” consider spaces where guests can see plants in bloom, like a glassed-in room in a hotel that opens up to a garden, or put a tent on your lawn and plant flowers so they’ll be in bloom by the wedding.

 

For a winter event, choose a romantic wedding location with a large stone or brick fireplace.

For a summer wedding, choose outdoor wedding locations near water - fountains, pool, river, lake, or beach.

Have a masquerade themed wedding in the ballroom of a historic home or building (or find a room in a historic city building that looks like a ballroom).

Throw a twenties theme wedding reception in a restaurant or dinner theater that resembles a speakeasy.

Work a global theme for an at-home wedding by using pillows, hanging lamps or lanterns, floor lanterns, wall hangings, textiles and other decorations, indoors or out, to really tie it all together.

Your reception venue choice sets your event apart from other weddings. It is the opportunity to make your wedding very unique, if that’s what you desire.

Consider unique wedding locations like a rooftop deck on a city building or a waterside warehouse, or the beautiful old historic city courthouse in your hometown.

Choose an unusual wedding venue like a local air & space museum or an iconic roadside attraction – just use your imagination!

 

 

Choose Romantic Wedding Locations that are Personal

Choose a wedding venue that has meaning to you and your fiancé. For example:

  • Have the wedding in that lovely historic town or village where you spent a weekend together and had a wonderful time
  • Have your ceremony in the park in front of the bench where you and your fiancé were sitting and talking when you first realized it was love
  • For a truly romantic wedding location, have your reception in the courtyard at the restaurant where you went on your first date, or where the proposal took place
  • Make your wedding ceremony location under the big old tree you played under as a child, and then a lovely reception under a tent in the backyard with a view of the pasture and the rolling hills
  • Rent one or several lake houses where you vacationed as a child and have the wedding at one of the houses or down by the water
