Criteria for Evaluating an Accommodation for your Wedding Party

Proximity to your Wedding Venue

There are many wedding venues spread out across Prince Edward County and the Quinte Region, so a sometimes important consideration is finding an accommodation that is relatively close to your venue. Unless you have found a wedding venue that offers accommodations (which exist in Prince Edward County) you will likely need to commute some distance via vehicle in order to get to the venue, so depending on how much you prioritize the other criteria below this one might become more or less of a priority.

How Many Guests Can Be Accommodated?

Since wedding parties are sometimes over 10 people there is only a small number of accommodations that can safely and comfortably accommodate these groups. When you are planning on booking an accommodation make sure you are looking at the number of bedrooms and number of bathrooms so make sure that you will have enough space for the pre and post activities that come with having a wedding. If you reach out directly to accommodation providers in Prince Edward County you will be able to determine the exact number of guests that their accommodation can hold, and may come with discounts for the stay. 

Budget

Obviously budget will usually be high up on the list when people are trying to book large group accommodations. Keep in mind that many large group accommodations will have the option to allow you to book directly instead of through an OTA (Online Travel Agent) like Airbnb or VRBO. The benefit of booking directly usually comes in the form of savings for the guest, since Airbnb charges an additional 14-15% for guests booking through their software. If your accommodation provider is savvy enough and has the software in place (like Fancie’s PEC!) you will be able to see availability and pricing in real-time without having to email the accommodation provider. Of course, if you have any specific questions about the accommodation before booking you should definitely reach out to the provider to make sure you understand what you are getting and what the total cost will be.

Is There Enough Room for a Rehearsal Dinner?

One of the benefits of booking a large accommodation that has the space for large groups is that there is likely a lot of space on the property and within the home to host pre-wedding events like a Rehearsal Dinner. This will help in your overall planning of your wedding festivities by being able to consolidate the accommodation and rehearsal dinner all under one roof. 

Unique Amenities + Optional Upgrades 

When considering a large group accommodation for your wedding party you will want to make sure that it checks off all of the boxes (and then some) when it comes to the amenities provided. How many bathrooms are there? Are linens provided? Are there mini fridges in each room for drinks and storage? Is there a waterfront? Sunset views? Free parking? Individually controlled HVAC systems for each suite? Is there a suite for the bride and groom to enjoy after the wedding? There are many different amenities that you should expect when planning the perfect wedding weekend, so make sure that you know what you are getting with your stay!

It is also valuable to work with an accommodation provider that will be able to offer value-added upgrades to make sure your wedding prep at the accommodation is as stress-free and fun! Mimosa bar anyone? Family-style breakfast to make sure everyone is fueled for the long evening festivities? See if your accommodation provider will be able to help customize your weekend so that you can have an unforgettable wedding weekend experience.

Privacy for the Bridesmaids and Groomsmen

Will the large group accommodation be able to give both the bride and the groom their own space on the day of the wedding? To be able to split the house and have one side be for the girls and the other be for the guys is super valuable (but sometimes not an easy feat). It will be important to understand the layout of the home in order to confirm if you will be able to section off the home properly for the day-of preparations for the Bride and Groom.
