Accommodations

�

With today’s global society your wedding or event is likely to have a large number of out of town guests. As a good host you will want to make sure that you have done the homework and found lovely places for your guests' stay. Often the easiest thing to do is to book a block of hotel rooms in at least two different hotels.

Advanced blocking will not only insure that your favorite Sarasota and Bradenton hotels will have accommodations for your guests but may also get them a reduced rate. You will want to select hotels at different price points so your guests have both a luxury and budget friendly choice.

If you know that a large part of your guest list will need overnight accommodations it is the wise bride that checks with the local Convention and Visitors Bureau before setting the date. They can give you all the information on any major conventions, sports or social events that may affect the availability of the goods and services you need for your event. For instance, during the height of the tourist season you may find rooms sold out and at a higher rate.
