Why Do People Use Hotels for Wedding Venues?
Hotels are an evergreen popular choice for wedding venues - just check out our National Wedding Survey! We found that hotel wedding venues were the most popular place to tie the knot in 2022, and with so many benefits we can understand why.
Hannah Jeal, Assistant Director of Events at Andaz Liverpool Street shares some reasons why couples opt for hotel wedding venues: "First and foremost, you and your guests will be able to enjoy the convenience of coming back to guest rooms just upstairs rather than having to tackle public transportation at the end of the night. This will be very appreciated by those of your guests that like a drink or two!
"This is also a great opportunity to spend more time with your guests, whether that’s in the days running up to the wedding, or the morning after if you’re not heading straight to your honeymoon. Often, hotels will provide the option of a wedding suite in packages, meaning more quality time with your party as you get ready for the big celebration!
"Another fantastic advantage is that everything is all in one place. Why struggle with getting everyone from one location to another when it can all be in the same building? Many hotels, like Andaz London, will have venues that are licensed for wedding ceremonies, alongside spaces that are better for receptions.
"You don’t have to worry about travel delays or the weather getting in the way of your big day, as it’ll more than likely be the case of moving into a room next door. And with your guest room upstairs, there’s nothing stopping you from freshening up and having a breather with your loved one before the party begins.
"Finally, once the special day has been and gone, you’ve got a brilliant anniversary destination to keep coming back to, where you can relive the magic of it all as much as you please.”
If you’ve still not found the wedding venue of your dreams, you might like to consider something a little more rustic. Take a look at our pick of the best barn wedding venues in the country.
