Are you preparing to get married? This will be a very exciting, albeit nerve-wracking experience for you! The better you prepare to say “I do” to the apple of your eye, the less nervous and stressed you will feel during the build-up to the big day. With so many wedding reception venues in Chicago to choose from it can be tough finding one that suits your needs because, at this time, you will need to think about location, amenities, food, and entertainment, among many other things. Nowadays, many modern brides are blending traditional with contemporary. Learn how by reading up on the traits of some modern reception venues and how it could make your day extra special.
Hotel and Golf Resorts
Do your friends and family members enjoy playing a round of golf in their spare time? If so this would be the perfect opportunity to host your big day at a hotel and golf resort. These resorts will be set on plenty of lush green land and nestled among towering trees, creating the perfect backdrop for wedding photographs. Typically, hotel and golf resorts will also offer guests access to amenities like swimming pools, jacuzzis, and treatment rooms. A modern bride will be able to enjoy the full pampering experience with this option but expect to pay slightly more for luxury extras.
Renovated Barns
Old, rustic barns set amongst miles of the countryside will offer a peaceful setting for a wedding. Renovated barns will maintain most of their original features, like wooden beams and brickwork facades. However, they will also blend modern features and if you host your wedding inside one, chances are you can choose from several preferred catering suppliers. A bonus is that there will likely be outdoor activities taking place nearby, such as wilderness walks, archery, and horseriding.
Picturesque Estates
An alternative to the above two modern wedding venues is to host your special affair at a picturesque estate. There are lots of estate owners out there who will rent out their buildings and surrounding land for weddings. A long-remembered wedding can be enjoyed at an estate that is only accessible to you and guests. Most estate owners will also understand that guests might require accommodation afterward, and so will offer rooms for rent on a nightly basis. This option also gives you a good opportunity to handpick your vendors and entertainers.
At Alpine Banquets, you can just your wedding reception in style and choose from an extensive beverage and dining selection.
