In today’s economy, many soon-to-be wed couples are looking for a unique and memorable, yet budget friendly, place to hold their wedding. Boyne City wedding might offer a nice place for people to stay if they are attending a castle wedding in the beautiful resort town of Charlevoix, Michigan – a 40 minute drive from Boyne City. However, there are limited attractions and event sites in Boyne City for weddings.
A castle wedding in Charlevoix, Michigan boasts many Michigan Gardens with different themes such as a rose garden, unique European gardens or a Japanese flower and topiary garden among many others in the courtyard surrounding the castle which lends itself to countless exclusive photo opportunities. There is also a beautiful indoor chapel that can accommodate small to very large wedding parties in addition to other places within the castle a bride and groom might choose as a special place to say their wedding vows.
There are a number of bridal suites within the castle in addition to large rooms for a wedding reception to be held after the wedding. Many brides and grooms choose various themes for their castle weddings – which are not limited to the fairy tale Prince and Princess but could be anything the couple’s imagination can dream up. One couple had a circus themed wedding including clowns and for the reception, cookies made out of a castle cookie cutter instead of cupcakes or individual small cakes which seem to be all the rage these days.
If the couple to be wed does not live in Michigan, then they would call this a destination wedding and should send the invitations at least two to three months in advance of the wedding date in order to give everyone an opportunity to make arrangements for travel and hotel accommodations. Additionally, a couple should not get their hopes up that everyone will be able to attend a destination wedding far from their home because many people cannot take off work or have the means to cover travel expenses at this time.
A couple that has a wedding planned in a Michigan Castle should plan to videotape the events and take lots of photographs for those who cannot attend and for their own personal album to help keep the memory of that beautiful day alive forever.
