A Couple's Guide To 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.

One thing that many couples do is decide on a theme or feel for your wedding. This will help you choose venues, clothing, musicians and other service providers from among the many choices that Nova Scotia has to offer. A wedding in the Maritimes can range from a rustic, country celebration to a sleek and polished urban affair in the heart of Halifax.

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.

Keep in mind that Halifax and other locations in Nova Scotia can be quite popular with tourists. During the summer months, you may find that restaurants, event spaces and other locations may book up quickly and cost more than they do during the fall, winter and spring.

Of course, planning your wedding when you don't live in the area can be difficult. If you are going to be traveling to Nova Scotia for your celebration but do not live there regularly, you may want to consider hiring a planner who is located in the province. This will allow you to have someone local who can meet with service providers, help you choose a venue and even narrow down service providers so that your celebration has the feel and look you want it to have.
