How to pick an ideal wedding venue Hotel for your big day - By: Felicity Lightbody

When it comes to planning a wedding, next to the dress, nothing is more important than the venue. The venue can help set the whole mood of the wedding. A smaller setting such as a small church can make a wedding feel more intimate while a destination wedding venue can set a culture theme.

When planning a large wedding, brides often look at hotels for the reception and sometimes the wedding as well. The use of a hotel can offer one stop planning for the bride and groom to be as well as providing accommodations for their guests. While searching for wedding venues & hotels it is important to keep in mind a few key points; the amount of money you would like to spend, the style of the wedding, the cost to your guests (if they plan on staying overnight) and any extras that you may be looking for such as an open bar. Most hotels offer a wedding package if they have the available space but it is crucial to find out if the space is indoors, outdoors or possibly both.

A bride planning for an outdoor wedding and reception takes the chance of getting rained on so you may want to be sure that the venue can be accommodating for the unexpected. The location of the hotel is also important if planning an outdoor wedding. The perfect atmosphere can set the mood for entire wedding. For example a couple hoping for a tropical feel would most likely choose a hotel on the beach but, in order to get the entire feeling, it would be best to have the ceremony as close to the water as possible with the breeze and the smell of the ocean air. A bride that is looking for a more ornate and regal wedding would most likely look for an older hotel with lavish decor and over scaled rooms.

After choosing the appropriate wedding venues hotels for your desired atmosphere, the next step is to discuss the decor and catering options. Most venues provide this service as a part of the wedding package but if not, be sure to ask if they will allow an outside decorator and/or caterer to come in. Another option available to most couples would be a wedding planner. They can coordinate the entire wedding including ordering the flowers, limos and food as well as coordinating the dress fittings and assuring that everything goes smoothly, taking much of the stress off of the bride and groom to be.

Finally, it is always best to take a look at the rooms that your guests will be staying in. Comfort is important and a bride always wants to make sure that her friends and family feel at home. A quick check of the bed linens and towels can give the excited couple a glimpse of the hotel amenities offered to their guests. Once everything has been decided on, the happy couple can relax and look forward to when the big day arrives!
