So, we wanted to share it with you as you gather all of the critical information you need to begin the arduous – but fun – process of wedding planning.

1. Choose a Non-Saturday, Off-Season Date

But our guests are out of town! We hear this all of the time. Most reservations occur over a year out, so guests have plenty of time to make arrangements to be there. In our experience, it doesn’t matter which day of the week you choose… they’ll be there! We promise.

By choosing a date in the off-season, you can save lots of money. Off-season is subjective by location, but in general, these are December through February wedding dates. For instance, the difference between February 27 and March 7 is over $1,000 off at THE SPRINGS.

2. Choose a Venue With a Full-Day Rental

It’s a treat to have the entire venue to yourself for the entire day. At THE SPRINGS, you can relax and savor your wedding day. Enjoy our bridal and groom dressing suite and get ready onsite. Take pictures throughout the day and anticipate your guest arrival. No rushing through the reception, take it all in!
