What to Know About Planning a Wedding at a Country Club

Golf and country clubs are probably the most turnkey and easy venues to host an event at. They literally exist for events and have everything needed to successfully put on a wedding. Country clubs are perfect for couples who want to just pick an all-inclusive package and show up on the big day.  

Booking considerations

There are a couple important things to consider when having your wedding in a backyard:

❤️ Country clubs often have a closed vendor list, meaning you usually have to book vendors off of their vetted list of local businesses.

❤️ It's very common to have a strict noise ordinance, so country clubs are not the best option if you plan on dancing the night away. 

❤️ Golf club members usually have a lot of rights to the club and you will often see golfers on the green during your party.
