San Diego Weddings

Weddings. Ever since two of my coworkers got engaged, our office has been buzzing nonstop about invitations, bridal dresses, honeymoons, and the like. And with good reason, because there’s a lot to think about before the Big Day.
Whether you’re a local to San Diego who’s tying the knot in your (figurative) backyard or you’re planning a destination wedding on a beautiful, secluded beach, we’ve rounded up some resources from around the web to help you plan your wedding.
Accommodations: Booking a hotel or B & B for your wedding party and family members is one of the first steps in planning a wedding, especially if you or your fiancé have a large family. MySanDiegoWedding has a directory of Bed & Breakfasts, Hotels, and Retreats so you can find the perfect place for all your guests to stay.
Reception sites: Another key component to any wedding is finding the right place for the reception. The number of guests, the budget, and your personal style preferences are all important considerations. For instance, Balboa Park offers a beautiful setting for a traditional wedding or reception, either indoors or out. For a more unusual setting, you might consider a reception aboard a ship overlooking San Diego Bay. Sign On San Diego offers a more complete directory of possible wedding reception locations.
Honeymoon: After all the confetti and cake, you and your new spouse can look forward to relaxing together on an unforgettable vacation. I like the idea of registering for your honeymoon instead of housewares, because let’s face it, glassware can break, but memories of a luxurious getaway to some sunny, exotic locale are forever. To find out your honeymooner profile, you could take this quiz. Then you can register for that once-in-a-lifetime trip you and the SO been dreaming of.
One last thing… If you’re still searching for the perfect dress, then you might want to check out the Wedding Party Bridal Show on Sunday, March 30 at the Manchester Grand Hyatt in Downtown San Diego.
