5 Tips on Choosing Wedding Accommodations for Your Guests

Guest accommodations for your wedding

Guest accommodations for your wedding

If you’ll be having your wedding in a place that is not close to a lot of your guests then this article will be useful for you.  It becomes your responsibility to research accommodations and if possible, book en masse for you and your guests. When doing your research, the following are some important details that you should pay attention to.

·  The Location

The distance from the accommodation to your wedding venue and reception venue should not be too far. The closer, the better. Narrow your search by choosing accommodations around your venue. You can also talk to us about vendors that can handle the transportation of you and your guests.

·  The Budget

Some of your guests may be ready to spend big when it comes to hotel accommodations and some may not. Booking as a group is one way to get the best rates and you can also get rooms with a variety of prices thrown in when you book room blocks.

·  The Size

If the number of guests you’re expecting from out of town is much, go for hotels. Smaller inns and bed and breakfasts will do for fewer guests.

·  The Amenities

Cable TV, internet access and parking are must-haves when it comes to booking for your wedding accommodations. A swimming pool and room service are also great additions if they are available.

·  The Welcome Bag

If you plan on distributing a welcome bag for your guests, don’t forget to ask if your accommodation will hand them out as your guests’ check-in or you’ll have to do it yourself.
