The Essential Wedding Hotel Checklist | Wedding Checklists

After a long day of celebrating your wedding day, you’ll want a nearby place for you and your guests to rest! Setting up a wedding room block at a hotel close to your venue helps out-of-town guests find accommodations, and makes transportation that much more seamless.
