Where to Wed

Updated: Oct 30

Venue Options


There are many gorgeous locations to consider when choosing where you want to have your wedding ceremony. Some important factors to keep in mind are:

  • Time and date - many venues restrict elopement and small wedding pricing to weekdays or morning hours

  • Number of guests - most venues have rules regarding how many people can be included

  • Budget

  • While many of these venues will allow pets on a leash, there are some restrictions. Ask for more information if you plan on including Fido in your wedding party!

With these thoughts in mind, here are our favorite venues sorted by price.
