Short Vows: Selecting A Venue For A Wedding On Short Notice

Blog

Lots of brides and grooms plan their wedding for at least six months to a year. Other times, getting the show on the road as quickly as possible is the name of the game. If you are in the second segment, you will need to look for a wedding venue as your first order of business. The issue is that venues tend to book well in advance for weddings, which will make this task the most difficult. Some tips for selecting a wedding venue on short notice will make your search a little bit easier.  

Search beautiful hotels

Hotels are often booked for weddings, however, the good thing about a hotel is that they may have more than one room. Penthouses suites or top floor restaurants can sometimes be used in order to host weddings and a reception in the same place. Call around to your favorite hotels in your favorite areas. They may have a room that you can use for your wedding on short notice and a reception space to boot. 

Find a nice park

Being married in the midst of a burst of roses is one of the best memories that you can have at your wedding. For this reason, you will want to look at parks that are open to the public. A park with a lot of blooming flowers and hedges to keep your wedding private is the perfect place to book. Depending on the proposed length of your ceremony, you can book the park and sit out chairs without too much muss and fuss. Renting time in a park is often inexpensive and easy if it is during the dry season. 

Pick a friend with a wonderful house or backyard

If your wedding is going to be simple with mostly family and friends, you should consider using one of your friends home's for the wedding. If you know a friend or family member that owns a mansion or a large estate, this would be the perfect place to hold your ceremony. Offer to have their house professional cleaned before and after the event, plus hire staff to do all of the decorating and serving. You can also offer them champagne from the ceremony and a fee to use the house in order to sweeten the pot. A friend or family home is often easy to procure and the wedding will also be a more intimate affair.
