Sacramento Hotel Weddings & Receptions
"When I look at you, I can feel it. I look at you and I'm home."
-Dory, Finding Nemo
Planning your wedding event for a hotel is another popular option for Sacramento brides. Hotels offer many advantages to couples. Most obvious is that hotels come complete with lodging for some or all of your guests. This means that there is no need to worry about your guests getting home safely after your event. Guests can simply just walk to their hotel rooms. It also means that typically a hotel wedding doesn’t require a lot of traveling for your guests. When and if traveling would be required your guest could easily be transported by shuttle. Either large or small shuttles could transport guests conveniently as all of your guests would be in one location.
Convenience is really the name of the game for hotel weddings. Couples could easily choose to have some sort of small after-party at a hotel as many hotel bars stay open quite late. Another benefit to hotels is that they used to constantly handling large groups of people. This is a huge advantage as a hotel’s staff typically is experienced in handling all of the needs of a large group. An example of this is that food is easily served and when served it is usually served on time and hot. Hotels typically have more than one ballroom to handle different size events.
Most hotels have some sort of courtyard that is often already decorated for an event such as a wedding ceremony. This means that a gazebo or altar is usually already a permanent structure on the property. Hotels also have their own chairs and linen again simplifying each couple’s wedding day planning process.
A final consideration for many couples booking hotels for their wedding day is that hotels can be found at almost every price point. Hotels can be found for the cost-conscious couple to those couples wanting and willing to pay for the most exclusive event Sacramento has to offer. Giving so much convenience to couples it becomes clear why so many couples choose to plan their wedding event at a hotel.
