Swan and dolphin venue question.

[Astephens207]

Lease excuse me if this has been addressed before. I was wondering for the swan brides could you tell me a little about the venues. What I'm searching for is how did the bride walk up to the wedding. (Hope that makes sense). Does the bride make a grand entrance? Does the groom see her walking up a sidewalk ECT. Just wanting to know how everything will be done since I won't see how everything works until the day of the wedding and it may help in my venue decision.

Definitely check out our Swan and Dolphin thread at the top of this board - loads of pictures there and helpful info.

The 3 most popular ceremony venues are Crescent Terrace, the beach, and a small but lovely courtyard type venue with a great fountain in the middle.

The bride does make a grand entrance and can be "hidden" from the groom up until a certain point - like all ceremonies.

We also have a Facebook group and you can see lots of real weddings there. Let me know if you'd like to be added. Don't hesitate to ask any other questions!

Thank you yes please add me to Facebook. I'd love to see pictures of everyone's wedding there. We are thinking the terrace or the beach. I know they said the beach is a more public area so I'm wondering just how public is it? If we are going in June is there gonna be people swimming lol.. I don't think that would make a pretty backdrop for a wedding lol.

We had our ceremony at Crescent Terrace and our cocktail hour at the Swan Courtyard. I found both venues to be very private.

I waited in an empty closed restaurant (Il Mulino I think?) before I made my "grand entrance." We walked down a beautiful pathway to the ceremony alter.

We were there during a higher crowd vacation time (the week before Christmas). If anyone was watching from their hotel rooms, we didn't notice. Our wedding planner and her assistants were great about making sure no one was walking through or crashing our ceremony and cocktail hour.

Crescent Terrace had a gorgeous backdrop. Beautiful trees and the waterway with the boats going by-so peaceful and pretty
