Was checking out what accommodation is available for the night before/ night of and night after the wedding in Perth for the wedding next year.
Thought I was silly for looking already.
The place I wanted for the night before is already booked full for that time frame.
Hmm a little odd I thought so I started poking around and alot of places don't have any reservations available on that weekend.
Then it dawned on me....We are getting married on a long weekend which is also the 1st weekend of school holidays and the AFL grand final weekend to boot.
So in a couple of weeks I will have the $ to reserve a place or places.
Now to decide what to do.
FH wants to spend our 1st 2 nights as newlyweds in this gorgeous B&B BUT I think it will be like staying at your parents place. Kinda wierd.
Has anyone else done/doing this??
I have looked into some self contained apartments. Some with 2 bedrooms.
I am considering something like this to stay in with my girls the night before and then with FH the next 2 nights.
These are an affordable option for us, have more privacy but not so romantic.
Although we can make it so.
We can't really afford some of the Speciallty Hotels (with spas and pools and honeymoon suites etc). We can afford some of the mid range places but really do have to get in quick on those.
The other problems I have is accommodation places usually don't let you check in till 1-2pm.
How do we go about checking in on the wedding day if we go to one??
Do we check in between ceremony and reception?? Do we check in after reception?? We get married at 2pm/reception at 5pm.
Aaaah I didn't think there were so many things to think about when it comes to finding a place to sleep (or not

)
Sorry it's a bit long.
