How to have a destination wedding without going to a tropical island

From Nicolette Burns, Wedding Sales Manager, at the Atkinson Resort & Country Club

Your wedding should be more than just an event, it should be an experience. You want to choose a facility or location that is dynamic and more than just a function hall. Seek out properties that offer amenities such as hotel rooms, onsite ceremony locations, restaurants and indoor/outdoor activities. This offers you not only convenience and ease of planning, but the ability to accommodate the needs of your guests. It's very appealing to your attendees when they find out they are going to an all-encompassing property.

Choosing a venue where you can have your rehearsal, rehearsal dinner, ceremony, reception and more allows wedding plans to flow seamlessly. There is cost saving opportunities as well. Some properties offer discounts when you have multiple wedding-related events. At Atkinson Resort & Country Club we offer discounts applicable to rehearsal dinners, post-wedding brunches and even golf too!

Having accommodations at your wedding venue makes is really enjoyable for you as a couple. Your first night as husband and wife you can simply walk to your hotel suite and relax. The wedding party and family also enjoy not having to leave, and truly enjoy the hospitality of the property.

You don't have to go to an Island or Ski Resort for a destination wedding experience. There are multiple options and locations right in the immediate area that offer the "get-a-way" feel without having to hop a plane, train or endure a long road trip. We are proud to say that Atkinson Resort and County Club is one of the properties. We consider it an honor to host your special day, and will ensure that it is an incredible dream-come-true experience.
