When you’re starting to plan the details of your wedding, one of the first and one of the biggest decisions you will find yourself is making is around where to have your big celebration to take place. It may be tempting to pick a non-traditional space, like a barn, a bare warehouse or even just a space on a secluded beach. But if you’re looking for something a bit more organized, where you can have people on the grounds to help you out, you may want to consider picking a resort to have you wedding take place at. Here are 4 benefits of getting married at a resort.

 

1. Guests Can Stay and Play

A major benefit of a resort is that guests can walk out of their hotel room and walk right into your wedding. It keeps guests organized when it comes to planning where they should stay for your wedding and it also gives your guests no excuse to be late to your wedding.

 

2. You Won’t Have to Plan Itineraries

When you have out of town guests flying in for your wedding, you may want to plan them out a day-by-day schedule of things to do, whether it’s local restaurants or tourist attractions for them to check out. At a resort, there are usually activities for them to spend the day doing, whether it’s the pool, spa or a round of golf. There’s also usually staff on hand that can help you guests decide where to go and what to see based on their personal interests.

 

3. Skip out on Travel

Since you can plan the party where you and your guests are staying, you won’t have to shell out extra cash for a party bus or transportation to take your guests to and from your wedding. That’ll save you a couple hundred dollars.

 

4. Select Special Packages

Most resorts will have wedding packages that you can chose from. That way, you don’t have to take on the added stress of finding a cater or figuring out where to rent your tables and chairs from
