Your Favorite Reception Venue?

Pirate & 60s Bride, on March 7, 2019 at 7:53 PM Posted in Wedding Reception 0 41

Is your wedding reception at a unique venue, or have you been a guest at one? Tell us or post a pic! Couples have so many creative options. An unusual venue doesn't need much decor. And what a showstopper. I would love to attend a wedding at any of the following venues:

aquariumYour Favorite Reception Venue? 1

tree houseYour Favorite Reception Venue? 2

ship or river cruiseYour Favorite Reception Venue? 3

haunted castleYour Favorite Reception Venue? 4

fancy library Your Favorite Reception Venue? 5


What about you? Where would you love to attend a wedding, or are you celebrating yours at an non-conventional venue?

    We looked at the Denver Museum of Science and the Denver Zoo. Ultimately we decided on something a bit more traditional (and cheaper 😛)

    We looked at a conservatory, zoo, science museum, art museum, and fancy library. They were too small, had bad catering, and/or were too expensive. So we ended up in a cabin in the woods Smiley smile

    Oh, we also looked at a history center, brewery, and the college we both attended! Same problems as the other ones. Haha

    Wow, none of those worked out??? Shucks. Oh, but a cabin the the woods sounds romantic. And what a gorgeous spot for photos.

    What?! Your college would have been cool, especially if they have a pretty campus. Can I ask what their venue fee was? Never thought about a college before!

    I don’t have any pictures of the indoor water park on hand but it’s pretty cool.

    I think attending a wedding at a museum or zoo or planetarium would be really neat! My best friend is getting married at a place called Sixty State place in Upstate NY. It used to be an old bank, it still has the big old vault door. I can't upload any pics but it looks like its gonna be really neat and beautiful.

    I think so too! A bride got here posted her planetarium wedding pics and they were super cool.

    Ok, is this the place? An old bank in NY would be rad.

    Epic!!! Have your photographer take some wide-angled photos too (with and without you both in the frame). How amazing to have a gorgeous landscape canvas or print like this in your home... and the special meaning behind it. Wow.

    Yep, that's it!

    I never knew there were so many different places that could be considered for a wedding venue. I have seen so many different, unique, and cool venues on this forum. Smiley smile

    Dang! That's awesome. Your friend's bank wedding reminds me of our Vegas trip last summer. We went to the Mob Museum and THEY do weddings. Talk about fun photo opps!

    We almost had ours at a haunted hotel that was very castle-ish! We decided not to because a lot of our family would have a hard time getting there as it would be a simi destination wedding but dang was it a cool place!

    Oh my goodness, the aquarium & tree house venues would be AMAZING! I have not been to a super unique wedding venue, but those would be so cool.

    Hawthorne Hotel in Salem Massachusetts.
    It is haunted, historical and breathtaking. I’m so excited.
