Selecting A Suitable Wedding Venue San Antonio

By Maryanne Goff


Couples who are getting married have a variety of options when choosing a suitable wedding venue San Antonio. While many will choose to have a traditional ceremony in a church or chapel, others will opt for something out of the ordinary to make their special day truly memorable. Regardless of where they decide to hold the ceremony, it is important to start the search as soon as possible to make sure they can book the date they want before the schedule is full.

Most of the upscale resorts and hotels in town can accommodate ceremonies regardless of the number of guests. Event specialists can arrange to transform a ballroom or banquet room using themed decorations and specialty lighting. Places such as La Cantera Hill Country Resort, the Westin Riverwalk, and The Sheraton Gunter can also provide rooms for guests and even a special deal on a honeymoon suite for the happy couple.

For an outdoor ceremony, couples can consider one of the area's ranch resorts. From rustic to romantic, facility planners can coordinate every aspect of any event, including seating, catering, lighting, and flowers. Options include the Marquardt Ranch, Red Corral Ranch, and Rio Cibolo Ranch, where the bride has the option of arriving in a horse drawn carriage.

Outdoor events can be tricky because the weather plays a role. In case of bad weather, the venue should have a backup plan to move the celebration indoors. Couples should ask about this option before booking a date and paying a deposit.

The Majestic & Empire Theaters and the McNay Art Museum can accommodate those couples who are into the arts. The museum has outdoor and indoor facilities and offers furniture rental and specialty lighting. Stunning grounds and beautiful architecture provide the ideal locations for special photographs to add to the wedding album.

Among the most creative options is the San Antonio Zoo. The facility's party planners will put together a fun event that will entertain guests of all ages. The couple can get married on the spectacular balcony overlooking the African habitat resort. Afterwards, guests can dine, dance, and mingle in front of the various animal exhibits.

Historic Sunset Station offers indoor and outdoor settings for any size ceremony. Built in 1902, the depot is a National Historic Landmark restored to its original state with stained glass windows and vaulted ceilings. Couples can say, "I do" in the church or in one of the depot's scenic courtyards.

Additional outdoor venues include area outdoor gardens, plantations, and wineries. Whatever they choose, the location should have special meaning to the couple. All venues offer various packages depending on the crowd size.

Brides who choose a wedding venue San Antonio with an event planner on staff can relax and leave the details to the experts. They will take care of everything eliminating the need to work with multiple vendors and deal with complicated schedules and logistics. Many can even provide assistance with finding accommodations for guests attending from out of town.
