5 Reasons to Hire a Weekend Wedding Venue
Planning your wedding should be an exciting and fun-filled affair. Choosing your colours, your venue, invitations, décor, food and the list goes on, but often all this effort is only for one day that flies by in the blink of an eye. This is the very reason why weekend getaway wedding venues have become so popular. Bridal couples want their celebration to go on for as long as possible, so a weekend destination wedding venue seems like the perfect solution. Here are some more reasons why hiring a wedding venue for an entire weekend makes sense.
1. More time
Speaking to Newlyweds you will often hear them say that they wished they had more time. Time to talk to their guests, take it all in, dance, mingle and just enjoy their special day. Hiring a weekend wedding venue can provide just that. You will have the entire weekend to chat to your guests, enjoy the scenery and really relish in the special time. Although it will also probably flit past incredibly quickly at least you will have a bit more TIME.
2. Guests can relax
Choosing a destination wedding venue means that your guests have ample time to arrive and depart. They therefore won’t be battling traffic and struggling to get to your wedding on time. This in itself creates a relaxed atmosphere and means that your guests will probably enjoy themselves more. At a destination wedding venue they are able to really have a holiday and enjoy some time off.
3. You are more relaxed
As the bridal couple you often have to squeeze photos, speeches, dinner, dancing and cutting the cake all into a very short space of time. With a destination wedding venue you are able to space this out a little more, making your schedule more relaxed. This will also allow you more time to spend with your guests. Any last minute changes can be done the day before in order to allow you ample time to getting ready on the day of the wedding.

4. Exclusive use
Most destination wedding venues offer exclusive use of the venue for a single bridal couple and their guests. For a weekend destination wedding this means that you and your guests can use all the facilities at your leisure, something which often isn’t available at wedding venues hired for the day. Some wedding venues in fact have a few weddings taking place on their property, which may not be ideal for you.
5. A prolonged special day
Most Newlyweds wish that their special day had gone on forever. Although a destination wedding isn’t forever, it is at least a little longer than most. More memories can be created, more special moments are lived and more fun is had.
Once you have on a destination wedding venue it’s time to decide which wedding venue will be the best option for your requirements, ideas and theme and choose your dream wedding venue.
