Step 2: Planning Your Wedding- The Ceremony Location

Posted by: Bridal Admin on March 9, 2009 at 2:02PM PST

The Ceremony Location

You know the "who," "what," "why" and probably the "when." But in regard to your wedding, there is no more important "where" than the site of your ceremony.

This facility is the place where you will make those lifelong promises to love and to cherish. In your pictures you will forever be standing in that spot, wearing the most beautiful dress, with your husband lovingly gazing at you, and your friends and family fondly observing.

Here are some ideas to guide you toward picking the perfect site for your ceremony:

- If you want to get married in a place of worship, you should pick one to which you feel connected. That could be where you currently attend services or the place you went during childhood. It could be somewhere you’ve never been but have admired from afar.

- An outdoor wedding can be beautiful. Whether under a gazebo, at a park, or in a field, an outdoor wedding seems to come with Mother Nature’s seal of approval. Be careful to consider seasonal weather factors. Certain times of year are more prone to inclement weather than others.

- In a museum or gallery, your wedding will be surrounded by beautiful objects. You can choose sites that display works that match your personal preferences, whether you enjoy the modern, classical, naturalistic or abstract.

- A wedding at home gives you the opportunity to recite your vows in a place that is near and dear to your heart. Though it will require that you have enough room to accommodate your guest list, a home wedding will definitely have a personal touch that no other location offers.

Your officiant can help you determine your options regarding ceremony sites. There are some site restrictions if you are having a religious ceremony.

I have several years of experience from running an outdoor wedding venue and could add much more to this blog. Here are some vital points I always pass on to people:
1. Always ask about hidden fees.
2. Ask if yours will be the only weddding for that day.
3. Ask if the venue has a back up plan in case THEY have to cancel on you.
4. Ask if the rehearsal day is included.
