Options for wedding guest lodging
A: Out-of-state weddings sometimes prove a logistical nightmare for the bride and those planning the wedding. Of particular concern is finding suitable lodging for guests. While in days past, it was mostly up to the visitor to make and plan travel arrangements, there is a rising trend to include hotel recommendations as an added thoughtfulness to guests and prevents a lot of headache for everyone. If you expect many guests, one of the best questions you can ask the hotel management is whether they would be willing to reserve a block or rooms at a reduced rate. It may be worth a discount to have a significant number of rooms booked at once. Next, ask which rooms are best for families with children. Families may want ground level rooms, adjoining rooms, or a room near certain amenities. If you anticipate any visitors with mobility issues, ask what rooms are most accessible and have the closest parking. Consider things like the location of elevators and other amenities like ice machines. Some guests may want to enjoy some quiet time and extend their stay. Ask about the advantages of each hotel over another, even if you think you know. Chances are good that they will have something special to offer such as shuttle service or gym facilities, as well as have detailed knowledge of area points of interest. Offerings such as a complimentary breakfast can be a real time saver to visitors who are unfamiliar with the city’s restaurant offerings. Asking good questions will yield great results and assure that your guests have a wonderful stay.
