VENUES: Indoor

Last week I mentioned why I love outdoor weddings. This week, I want to focus on why I love indoor weddings. To be perfectly honest, I wanted an indoor wedding, my husband wanted an outdoor wedding, and at the end of the day, we ended up outdoors. Our wedding was perfect, and I think regardless of indoors or outdoors, it would have still been perfect. With that said, let's look at all the reasons to consider an indoor venue.
Why do I love indoor venues? Let me count the ways...
AIR CONDITIONING - Seriously, if you're a sweaty mess like me, air conditioning is everything. In addition to air conditioning to manage the heat, an indoor venue also keeps you safe from rain, wind, sun, and anything else Mother Nature throws at you on your wedding day.
THE EASE - Being at an indoor venue, like a hotel, gives you so much that's included in your menu price. So many items that you wouldn't normally think about, like air conditioning, bathrooms, a roof over your head, lighting, plates, forks, napkins, tables, chairs, and so much more. All of these things are including in your venue and food pricing... without having to hire any additional vendors!
LATE NIGHT PARTYING - One of the biggest perks of having an indoor wedding is the ability to dance and party later than an outdoor venue. Because a ballroom is enclosed, indoor venues will let you continue your party long after an outdoor venue has to stop. If you want a late night party, indoor venues are the only way to go.
Indoor weddings, outdoor weddings - they both have a place in my heart. There's no right answer, but we encourage you to look at both options so you pick what's right for you.
