Our venue is less than a 10min drive from our home. Several people told us that we should spend our wedding night in a hotel, since it makes it 'more special'. There's a pretty fancy one close by that has room rates starting at $250. I just feel like that's money that could be spent better somewhere else, besides the fact that I just sleep better at home.
What did you do? If you stayed at home, did you do something special? I was thinking about paying somebody to clean our house during the day and buying new linen that we would use the first time that night.
