When you are looking for a location to host your wedding, what are you looking for? I have started to come up with a list of ideas for where ours could be hosted, but it is hard the small town I live in. I am having to come up with unique ideas.
Church/Synagogue/Religious House
Depending on your religious affiliation, this is the most obvious choice for most couples. This option is one of the most affordable and if you are having your wedding near a major holiday, it is likely the venue will already be decorated for you. It is still expected that a donation will be made to the organization and the officiant may want you to go through counseling or have other criteria before you can use their building.
Wedding Chapel
We have a couple wedding chapels near my city that I have considered for our wedding and reception. The best thing about these venues is they tend to have packages that include almost everything you are going to need from flower to table linens and sometimes even the cake and dj. The down side to this is they may limit the vendors you can choose from and the options of what you can do at your wedding.
Park
One of my best friends was married this past summer at a local park. It was a very pretty spot just in front of a waterfall with plenty of flowers planted all around it.
Unfortunately, since it was a public location she was not able to exclusively rent the location, so there were a few un-invited guests who stopped to observe her vows. She was so happy she didn't mind letting the world be a part of her wedding though.
Farm/Field
As I have been flipping through many pinterest postings, there seems to be a huge trend of rustic weddings. These are very popular in my area and there are several farms that are starting to offer wedding services. If outdoor, hay bale, wildflower type weddings are your thing, this could be a great option.
