Guest accommodation:Don't
forget the humble guest. Many have come along way to celebrate with you and some
will rely totally on you to suggest a place to stay, hopefully we will make this
task a little easier. The things to consider when suggesting guest accommodation
are: Delegate
someone to go view the accommodations. If you have time, go yourself.
Remember
that your guests will have different expectations, suggest low, medium and luxury
accommodations for them to choose from.
Accommodation
places are often happy to hold a certain number of rooms for a period of time
whilst your invitations go out, create a RSVP to the accommodation places and
your guests can then book within that time period.
If
you block book, your guests may be located in the same area of the motel, that
way they can share things they have forgotten, get to know each other and organise
taxi's to cut costs.
You
may have to look at a couple of accommodation places depending on the amount of
out of town guests you have coming.
Try
to pick locations close to the reception venue to cut transport costs for guests.
Check
what time your guests will be able to get into their rooms and what time is checkout?
Are
there other facilities close by eg: hairdressers, makeup, shops for those forgotten
items?
Once
you have selected the accommodations, DON'T get involved. you have to much else
to do, delegate the accommodations to the groom.
