Choosing the right wedding venue is not always an easy thing. What may first suggest itself as the picture-perfect location may be fraught with too many impracticalities, while, conversely, the most practical option can lack that special touch which lends the ceremony the right amount of romance or magic. These are only two of the primary considerations.
Even in Singapore, where a limited land area reduces the options that are to be found in most other major world metropolises, there is wide variety of choice when it comes to both style of venue and practical necessity. One of the great qualities of Singapore is that it has elevated the art of combining spectacular venues with just about every convenience, both in situ and in terms of access for all guests and participating services.
It is a country of rich heritage as much as it is one of the 21st century's most progressive hubs of cosmopolitan living. Its hotels range from the striking monoliths of contemporary design to those which offer historical prestige from the colonial period, each supplying exceptional facilities, services and the warm hospitality for which the island-nation is known. Despite the intrinsic beauty and exoticism of the country, it is perhaps the fact that couples can have the best of everything they require with the least amount of hassle that makes it all the more attractive.
Couples looking to hold their wedding and reception in the same place will have many excellent venues to choose from. Whether you seek the tropical romance and island beauty of one of the resorts on the smaller islands, or the chic urban sophistication of an exclusive top floor in a luxury hotel, you'll find more than one place offering unique qualities, great views and excellent services.
Unless you're living or working in Singapore, to have your wedding away from home generally means that fewer guests will be on your list. While this may be a problem for some, it has many advantages. The venue which you choose will not have to be as capacious as it might otherwise have to be, opening up the options even further. If your chosen venue is part of a resort or establishment offering accommodation, there will be fewer guests who require lodging, and so all who do attend will be more likely to have the most desirable kind of trip.
They can potentially all be located within easy reach of venues for both the ceremony and the reception. The greater degree of personal attention that is granted a smaller group of people, along with the more salubrious accommodation arrangements, makes for a generally better trip for all concerned.
Aside from the luxury hotels and resorts which remain an ever popular choice from romantic weddings of every kind, Singapore also has some lovely independent venues which perfectly dispose to an exotic and unforgettable ceremony. Both the world-famous bird sanctuary and the botanic gardens supply natural beauty in abundance. A nation of diverse pleasures and magnificent sights, there are many lovely locations to hold both ceremony and reception. One of the advantages of removing the ceremony and reception from the large luxury establishments is to increase your options and perhaps find that place which is simply perfect.
One of the disadvantages is that it might prove more troublesome for the participating services. Although the moment when the newlyweds step into their iconic transport, whatever it may be, is perhaps worth ensuring that the reception is not in walking distance. Be sure to research all possibilities, after all Singapore has many exciting venues. You may even find yourself exchanging vows on a luxury cruise vessel.
