The traditional setting for a wedding ceremony is the bride's place of worship. However, you should select a site that reflects your personalities and will make your day memorable. If tradition is your style, that's great; but don't feel pressured to conform if your personal style is something more contemporary or unique.

Other venues you can consider include:

• The Great Outdoors - outdoor weddings can be beautiful and supply many of their own decorations. Keep in mind that they can also bring their own set of headaches, such as bad weather, unpredictable temperature and insect and critter worries.
• Old Homes, Museums or Historical Sites - These settings can make beautiful backdrops for ceremonies. Time of day is something to be considered when choosing these venues. You'll want to visit the site during the time you plan to have the ceremony so that the lighting and furnishings look the same as they will on your special day.
• Hotels and Resorts - These venues are great because they can be all encompassing. The ceremony and reception can happen in one place to alleviate the hassles of transportation. Keep in mind that if the hotel or resort is large, another event could take place at the same time as yours.
• Your Dream Venue - Don't be afraid to do what you want, however unique and unconventional it may be. Are you a theatre buff? Get married on the stage of a grand theatre.

No matter where you prefer to tie the knot, make your reservation as soon as possible. And take into account a rental fee or donation for the use of the venue.
