~ Six Ideas for NonTraditional Intimate Weddings ~

by Marie R. Furgeson

An Island Wedding - Pick an island! Any island. Invite your most intimate friends and family members and fly to the island of your choice. Prepare to have your ceremony on one of the many beautiful beaches. At sunset you can create a romantic setting which will be great for your pictures. Afterwards, the reception can be held in the function room at the hotel of your choice or outdoors if you prefer. Dance under the stars to the Island music. Be sure to find out the legality of your wedding certificate. If you are an American citizen, you will probably need to record your marriage license to your local town hall.

 

Cruise to Nowhere - Look online for a cruise to nowhere that provides the necessities of a wedding function. Imagine being out in the middle of the ocean under the blue skies exchanging your wedding vows with your loved one. The reception can be in their function room on the boat following the ceremony. Be sure to find out the legality of your wedding certificate.

 

Las Vegas - Vegas weddings can be spontaneous. Or they can be planned well in advance. And, they come in all different packages. Imagine getting married on the gondolas at the Venetian Hotel or on top of the bridge at the Mandalay Bay Hotel. There are so many choices to choose from and they are all so unique! How about in front of the Bellagio with the Water Show behind you? And, the reception can take place anywhere in Vegas that you want it to be. What a great choice for some of you.

 

Rent a Yard - Some vacation homes have the prettiest yards. What a great place to have a ceremony. Go to your favorite rental website for example http://www.howtorentvacationhomes.com and book a vacation home for your wedding party. Make sure you are honest with the owners. You will need to tell them how many people will be attending and exactly what your plans will be.

 

Boat Wedding - Do you or someone you know own a boat? Ask them if you could hire a Justice of The Piece and have a small intimate wedding out on the lake. Start the ceremony at early sunset for a beautiful back drop setting. Especially nice for the wedding pictures!

 

Rent out a Ski Chalet. - Looking for a winter wedding. Go to a ski resort and exchange your vows on the top of the mountain. The reception can take place on the Mountain in their Function Room. Lots of ski resorts can accommodate your requests. Just call the mountain of your choice and let them know your plans. They will let you know whether or not they can meet your needs.
