Looking to host a small wedding in NYC? Fav venue booked? There is another option that allows you to wed on your preferred date *and* still have a beautiful, scenic backdrop. What could it be, you’re wondering? An Airbnb. When you want to tie the knot in style, this is the way to go. Browse through some of the best Airbnb wedding venues in NYC and the Hudson Valley.
HOW TO PICK AN AIRBNB
There are some rules and regulations regarding the guest count as well as the location of the Airbnb, but there are so many amazing and unique places to choose from.
Here are some important things to consider before you book your stay:
-How many guests are you expecting?
-Will there be a reception?
-If there is a reception, is it OK to set up tents, bring in outside vendors, possibly make temporary changes to the property, etc.
Aside from those important questions, this is a great opportunity to get married in your DREAM location without the hefty price-tag of an on-location hotel or wedding venue. You can get married on the beach in a chic oceanside home, or be a stone’s throw away from the mountains. Whatever you fancy, there’s a place for you.
Here is a list of some of my favorites on Airbnb’s website.
