So you — or your soon-to-be spouse — did the thing and finally put a ring on it. Once you’ve celebrated and shared the news with everyone, it’s time to scope out your wedding venue. The process of finding the perfect place can be daunting. There are so many site visits, so little time — and don’t even get started on the prices! But there’s a better way than scouring Google for the ideal spot, and chances are that your wedding planner doesn’t even know about this key resource yet.
Check out Peerspace — like an Airbnb for wedding venues, as well as other types of events spaces — and find a breathtaking location. Individual and corporate hosts in your local area will rent out their restaurant, rooftop terrace, estate, outdoor garden, or any space they own by the hour, and you can make it your wedding venue. The process of wedding planning can be overwhelming and, on occasion, a little lonely. It doesn’t have to be, however.
Take a break from writing in your planner and scrolling through Pinterest by switching it up. Listen to these entertaining — and, most importantly, illuminating — wedding podcasts while on your morning and evening commutes, and you’ll become an expert in all the ins and outs of wedding planning and etiquette. Enjoy!
