What To Consider When Planning Nova Scotia Weddings

By Patricia Lewis


Maritime Canada is a beautiful region that has both wild, open spaces and large, urban areas. It is no wonder why so many couples plan Nova Scotia weddings even if they were not born and raised in the province. If you are thinking about getting married in the province here are a few things that can make the planning process easier.

One thing to think about is what your budget is going to be. Some venues and locations can be quite expensive so knowing how much you have to spend before you start your planning can be a good idea. It can also be helpful if you know roughly how much of your budget you want to allocate to different elements of your celebration so that you can keep your spending on target.

It is a good idea to determine what kind of celebration you want to have. Do you want to have a chic, urban celebration in a luxurious setting? If so you might want to look at booking event space at the new Halifax Convention Center. This can allow you to celebrate while overlooking the downtown core. This space can be quite large so it may not be the best choice for someone who wants an intimate celebration.

While you may like the idea of getting married in a church and having a reception at an event space, you might want to think about tying the knot at a resort instead. This may make the planning process easier and make it possible for out of town guests to find a place to stay. A resort will be able to cater your dinner and many of them will have beautiful spots on the grounds for your ceremony to take place.

One thing that is wonderful about Nova Scotia is that there are so many unique venues where you can tie the knot. If you are interested in an alternative site for your nuptials, you may want to look at one of the local restaurants. There are also theaters, breweries and even a tall ship that you can book as a venue. Just remember to plan early and research your options to make sure it is what you really want for your celebration.

Many couples who are having guests come from out of town may want to plan activities that their guests can take part in. If you are getting married in Halifax itself, you may want to plan events that are centered around the city or can be experienced on short day trips. History buffs may love a visit to Lunenburg while animal lovers may want to take a day trip to Oaklawn Farm Zoo.

Some people are amazed at how busy the city gets during tourist season. It is a popular stop for many cruises and the province draws international guests as well as visitors from across Canada. You do need to be aware of this when you are planning your wedding. If you want to wed during the spring or summer it is a good idea to book early and expect that pricing will be higher during high season. This is something to keep in mind if you are working with a tight budget.

If you are living outside of the province and you want help planning your wedding, a wedding planner can be a huge help. A resort may have a planner on staff that will help you coordinate your celebration. You will be able to tie the knot in a beautiful setting and create memories that will last you and your spouse a lifetime.
