If you're trying to be adventurous and standout from traditional wedding venues, take a look at these great ideas for a wedding venue!
1. On the Water
Having a wedding on a lake, beach, river bank, dockside restaurant, even on a ferry boat, is a great way to create a splash among your guest. Having a wedding on the water makes for a great dramatic back drop and one you will never forget. Keep weddings on water simple, make an arch out of wood and branches found locally, use nature to create decorations such as flowers and small shrubs to make topiaries. String lights to give it some flare.
2. City Hall
Taking a trip to city hall doesn't mean your wedding has to be all business anymore. Having a wedding at city hall can be intimate and low key. This is a low stress option that doesn't require a lot of planning, or a big budget. Take your budget and use it to plan a party afterwards such as a dinner, or rent a venue to have a big celebration with your family and friends.
3. Unique Building
Try having your wedding in a special building that means something to you and your significant other. Having your special day in a building that has a lot of history is a great way to make history of your own. Some good venue ideas might be a museum, barn, historical house, government building. A lot of places may surprise you when it comes to budget, since they may be able to supply you with rental discounts and some may even supply seating and other supplies. Having your wedding in a place like this adds character, especially when the venue you pick might have nice marble floors or old stained glass windows.
4. In A Park Or Garden
Having your wedding in a garden or park is a great venue to add some whimsical flare to your wedding day. A lot of gardens and parks have covered space for weather. Gardens and parks can be budget friendly. Try decorating with simple things such as linen table cloths, mason jars with candles on tables and lining walk ways, putting lanterns in trees and adding flowers, found locally can give your wedding a romantic feeling. Use shades of white with accents for a nice simple, vintage feel. If your budget allows, hire a band for an even bigger bang.
5. At A Winery
If you're looking for an out of the ordinary destination wedding, having your wedding at a vineyard may be the place for you! Vineyard weddings are becoming very popular for couple who want an outdoor wedding. Vineyards often have spectacular views which are nice for setting up a reception, saying your vows, and picture opportunities. The day before your wedding you can hold a wine tasting for guest. Supplies such as linens, table ware, tables, chairs are usually provided.
