Footing the bill for out of town wedding guests overnight accommodations and flights isn’t your responsibility, however you can make the stay more enjoyable for them. Taking the time to secure a discount on a block of rooms will do 2 things:

1. Saves your guests time money and stress. Booking a hotel in an unfamiliar city takes time to research and causes stress. Reserving a block or rooms with reduce anxiety and generally means your guests receive a discount from the standard price.
2. Allows your friends and relatives to stay close to each other for the duration of the wedding. Weddings are a great chance to spend quality time with people you love and staying in the same hotels allows them to capitalize on every extra minute.

Many couples prefer to stay in a hotel on their wedding night. Depending on how many guests book a room, often the couple gets the honeymoon suite at a discounted rate or for free!

Here are a few questions to ask when deciding what hotel to recommend to your guests:

1. How far are you from my reception site?
2. Do you offer any transportation services?
3. Do you have any special accommodations?
4. Do you offer a honeymoon suite with the room block?

In the end your guests will appreciate your willingness to make their trip great!
