Arranging Overnight Accommodation For Your Wedding Guests
Guest accommodation is the one aspect of your wedding that will test your preparedness
ability and pulling it off successfully will definitely earn you bonus points. As a couple you're obviously under no obligation to provide board for your guests, but if you wanna leave your guests with pleasant memories of your special day then it's worth the effort.
Since guests attending your wedding are already incurring expenses, you may have to consider providing lodging for them. It's better if you choose more than one location, one expensive and one not then give your guests a choice. It's even better if your guests stay together in one location that suits their particular needs. If possible present them with options that blend with their comfort, is convenient and will help them remember the wedding. "Avoid planning your wedding on holiday weekend" this is a caution often given to couples by hotel owners.
The reason for this is that on holidays such as Columbus Day, Memorial Day or Labor Day, couples will experience minimum stay policies at majority of hotels, this is because such dates are always in high demand and are always classified as the bread and butter of such business establishments and asking them to break the rules could cause them some serious problems. Lodging owners know that your guests will incur additional expenses besides board. For destination weddings most guests prefer that they be booked for only one night only, especially if they're footing their own expenses.
If you believe your guests are interested in a luxurious venue, looking at the local hotel(s), which may offer a pool, exercise room, in-room TV, fax and modem services, as well as other amenities, may be a good choice. Despite the fact that they may be pricey, hotels often offer discounts when you block a number of rooms. The hotel, in most cases, will ask for your credit card number to hold rooms at a reduced rate. You will need to direct your guests to ask for the rooms being held under your name. If your budget allows, you may consider subsidizing the guest room fees.
If you wish to truly indulge a small number of guests (perhaps just you and your immediate family, or you and your bridal party), consider is a self-contained retreat that offers hotel-quality amenities. These "pearls" may be a bit more difficult to find, but they do exist and may offer everything from sauna, steam room, hot tubs and pool to high-speed Internet access. Hearty, homemade country breakfasts, large common spaces and beautiful grounds are often a part of the package. Expensive, but so chic and so special.
Young couples, couples with children, singles and other guests may appreciate a lower-cost location, so you may wish to reserve rooms in a reasonably priced venue, or in one or more local Bed and Breakfasts.
Pay close attention to the details of your guests lodging because this is one way of showing them that you care and appreciate their efforts; doing will be help them remember your wedding in positive light for many years to come.
