My Dream Wedding Venue
I started my discussion with my parents and my fiancé of what I was hoping to find in a wedding venue (Santosh just wants us to be married to him it doesn’t matter where) for our Indian wedding in MA. I started the venue search months ago, before he officially put a ring on it. In the end, I contacted/emailed and/or visited 85 various venues in 5 different states for our Indian wedding. That list does not include the 40 or so venues that friends and family recommended or suggested. The search was time consuming; looking for an outdoor venue with an indoor option for 600 people in Rhode Island- does not exist. Unless you have money to burn, but with my numbers, it is not possible. I ran into many venues that would not allow outside catering and with my numbers the $$$$$$ was insane if I were to use their non-Indian caterers!
I did not want to give up, but time was passing by and I needed to lock something down. I’m sure many of you can relate, but all people want to know is, “Did you lock down a date? Do you have a venue?” the pressure was mounting. So after looking at farms, fields, museums, warehouses, vineyards, parks and many other venues, I started looking at the last place I ever thought I would: hotels. Yes, ladies, I am getting married in a hotel after searching for months with family and friends for my perfect outdoor setting. Ultimately, an outdoor wedding for 600 people with an indoor option and a hotel for guest nearby was too much to ask for. We locked down our wedding venue and it is a hotel. Where was the best place you’ve been for an Indian wedding in MA?
If you are looking for the cheap accommodation options, hostels and halls
are the perfect inexpensive places for guests to suit their budgets.
