Why You Should Get Married In Your Hometown

List of Perks with a Hometown Marriage:


Connections

The good thing about getting married in your hometown is that you know the ins and outs of the area, giving you a lot of connections. Your vendors are most likely someone you know through the grapevine. You will have family or friends who have used your photographer, videographer, event planner, caterer, cake baker, dj/band, etc. This means you can easily hear about the quality of service each one provided.

Comfort

Familiarity is a benefit. Knowing your surroundings will make you less stressed, allowing you to enjoy the little perks of having your wedding in the hometown you grew up in. You can get dressed in your childhood bedroom, or you can walk down the aisle in the same spot you played hide-and-seek in. Throughout the day, you will be reminded of the past and look forward to the future.

Convenience

Family and friends will have an easier (and faster!) time RSVP'ing. A lot of your guests won't need to spend too much money on travel costs. Also, you'll be able to better accommodate out-of-towners since you'll know exactly which hotels to book a block of rooms at.

Traditions

After you tie the knot, you and your guests can take part in a few traditions that you have learned to love. For example, like playing board games or eating your favorite barbecue. These bonding activities will invoke special memories that you hold near and dear to your heart.

Revisit

One of the best perks of getting married in your hometown is that you can always revisit your venue, or even have your annual wedding anniversary at the same place you got married.
