Getting married in Orlando is an amazing experience for so many reasons. As a city with so many reasons to visit, Orlando provides the perfect location for that dream destination wedding, especially if you are a Disney World or Universal Studios buff.
Getting married in Disney World comes with its own set of stipulations, such as that you and your significant other must stay at a Disney resort in order to be able to marry in the park. There is a public gazebo in the park where Disney World weddings are held. Having your wedding in Universal Studios is easy to do because they have three venues where you can hold a wedding:
• Hard Rock Hotel
• Loews Portofino Bay Hotel
• Loews Royal Pacific Resort
For a low key wedding, you can get married at one of the many beautiful Orlando beaches or in one of the spacious parks. Though if you plan a destination wedding for the outdoors, avoid having a wedding reception during these months (April, May, June, July, August), as that is the time of year that it rains the most in Orlando (almost every afternoon). The average temperature during the summer ranges from a low of 72 to a high of 91, however the humidity is unbearable in a suit or dress for an outdoor wedding reception. If your ceremony is outside and reception is inside, no problem. Just make sure your venue has a backup ceremony location in case of rain.
One really compelling reason for having your wedding in Orlando is that there is so much for your guests to see and do while they are there. When it comes time to plan that last hurrah for both the bride and the groom, let your wedding party know that there are plenty of spas to take advantage of as well as plenty of sporting events taking place around Orlando. They will have no problem throwing you an unforgettable bachelor and bachelorette party.
As the hosts of a destination wedding it is the job of you and your significant other to provide accommodations for guests while they are in town. If renting a block of hotel rooms isn’t in the budget, consider the more affordable alternative of renting one or more villas for your guests to stay in. There are many spacious villas in Orlando to choose from and you can even rent villas that come complete with a laundry service and a maid. It is also easy and affordable to have groceries delivered to the villa so that your guests will be well taken care of. Having all of your guests stay in villas will also make it easier to transport them to and from the site of your wedding ceremony and reception.
For everything from flowers to the dress to a wedding cake to the DJ, making wedding plans in Orlando is always easy and convenient. You will be able to get beautiful flowers that are in season on your wedding date and shop at some high end bridal stores. There are highly skilled and experienced bakeries in Orlando and hiring a DJ to get the party started couldn’t be easier.
With many reasons to have a destination wedding in Orlando it is hard to come up with a good reason why you shouldn’t get married here.
