29 Sep 3 Reasons To Have Your Wedding In A Hotel
As fans of this blog, we know you’ll remember Chanel & Stevo’s epic beach wedding back in 2020…and, well, if you’re not going to get married on the beach like them, then we’d recommend choosing a hotel as your wedding location. Many hotels offer their beautiful spaces to couples looking to tie the knot. With well manicured grounds, accessible locations, and experienced staff, hotels make for a fantastic place to hold your wedding. You can often benefit from package deals, and the reassurance that the staff are well-rehearsed when it comes to executing seamless wedding days.
Here are a few more reasons why you should have your wedding in a hotel.
Wedding Packages
Some of the top priorities on your wedding to-do list are securing a venue, booking accommodation, and planning your decor, but when you opt for a hotel wedding, these often come as one complete package. From cakes and dinnerware to venue decorations, most hotels will be able to supply all of this for you, saving you time and stress.
What’s more, you’ll have the benefit of working with the same team to plan your wedding ceremony and reception. Many hotels have regular DJs or bands that know the venue well and have streamlined their performances to fit, making for an effortless and well-practiced experience on your special day.
Similarly, hotels have great, pre-built relationships with local photographers who know all the best spots of your venue, understand the lighting and have plenty of experience in getting the best snaps of the grounds. This can save a great deal of stress, as you’ll naturally form a bond with staff that will understand exactly what you’re looking for in all elements of your wedding. Plus, it means you don’t have to search out suppliers yourself.
Side note: if you are interested in outsourcing your own photographer or videographer for your wedding day, make sure you add Chanel & Stevo to your shortlist.
Accommodation On Site
Hotels are typically easily accessible, with great travel links and convenient locations – perfect if you’re inviting guests from near and far. When compiling your guest list, you’ll naturally want to ensure that your venue is close to suitable accommodation for your loved ones.
With a hotel wedding, all of your accommodations are on-site or nearby, so no one will have to fret over arranging a taxi after the reception. Plus, you can all meet in the morning for a hearty breakfast and reminisce over the brilliant day before. Overall, the continuity of seeing the same fantastic staff over the course of your stay is a lovely personal touch that you get when booking a hotel wedding.

Catering
A good hotel prides itself on its first-class customer service, so you can be sure that you and your guests will enjoy a friendly and professional experience throughout your stay from check-in and table and bar service, all the way to housekeeping. With highly trained and efficient waiting staff and experienced chefs, you can expect a smooth and consistent wedding.
A big bonus of a hotel wedding is that the chefs are already on site, so you won’t have to pay to bring in external caterers. You’ll likely be able to choose from a variety of set menus for your wedding reception, so be sure to discuss your preferences with your planner.
Book In Advance
Great hotels are highly sought after wedding venues, so be sure to start your search in good time before your preferred wedding date. Looking at potential venues around 12-18 months in advance is a good starting point, as this gives you plenty of time to fine tune all of the details and for your guests to book in, but you might find that some venues can also accept bookings closer to the time. It’s always worth reaching out to your venue and asking about your date, as they’ll likely do all that they can to accommodate your needs.
