Outdoor ceremony setup at a luxury Barcelona wedding venue

How to ask guests to pay for their accommodation: 


🔹 Clearly state in your invitations that guests must cover their lodging. 

🔹 Create a wedding website with travel information and accommodation notes. 

🔹 Personally reach out to close guests to explain the situation. 

🔹 Arrange a group rate at a hotel, informing guests they need to book and pay for their own rooms. 

🔹 Include a welcome letter with travel details in your invitations. 

🔹 Add an FAQ section on your website addressing accommodation costs. 

🔹 Mention the accommodation situation during pre-wedding events. 

🔹 Be honest about budget constraints and thank guests for their understanding. 

In any communication, be honest about your budget constraints and express appreciation for their understanding regarding accommodation costs. Combining these options can help convey the message respectfully while ensuring your guests feel informed and appreciated.
