Ideas for wedding locations

Weddings to some couples are more personal than bustling social events. It's understandable if a couple consider of having a celebration in a place that has personal meaning to them. This might provoke unpleasant reaction from family members or friends, but at the end of the day, everyone will join in and accept the couple's choice.

Here are some places I have heard or read as wedding celebration sites :

* Museum
Fond of history and artifacts? Museum is the best place to be. You can actually wear old fashioned gowns and suits. In the pictures it would look as if the wedding is done in the 1900s or even earlier! Then you can tell your friends, you are actually immortal ...

* Zoo and marine land
I love animals too! It would be fun, you'll have animals make noises on top of the wedding band!
Just make sure the lions, boas and polar bears are far away, or at least fed...

* Inside a pyramid
Just avoid the traps that Pharaoh's slaves had installed, ok? They still work!

* Outside a pyramid
There must be a lot of guests eerrr tourists congratulating you... and make sure it is a tent, so sand and sandstorm can't ruin your day.

* Airport
Hmm... security will have a hectic day if you choose this place. Just make sure you don't have any terrorist, terrorist wanna-be, criminal or criminal wanna-be in your list of invitation. I know it's hard to predict what other people will do, but try your best!

* Cinema
Hah that's a good one. You might get a discount for buying movie tickets, beers and popcorns for above 50 people. Must be fun to have ceremony and watch a movie with just the very people you want to watch it with. No kicking at the back of the seat, no one stands up (and keep standing up...), no loud noises or kids fighting (no guarantee on this, though)

* Greenhouse
Well this is nice. I wouldn't mind getting married in a big green house. As long as there is enough space for everybody (and the plants). It wouldn't need much decoration either. Just the plants and us! Hopefully nobody slams the door on their way in or out... hic!

* Pub and bar
Beer and alcohol lovers should know this by now. They might have met there anyway, so why not celebrate it in the same place?

* University or school hall
I would imagine it's cheaper to get married there in terms of hall rent. Long time lovers may find it just the right place to have the reception, since they practically meet in school anyway.

* On a tour
Almost like an elope, getting married while going on a tour is not a bad idea. You would celebrate it with everyone on the same tour group. How cool is that? Plus it's wedding and honeymoon in a package!

* Someone else's house and backyard
Err.. I hope you at least know the owner. Or at least you know they don't have some exotic pets like boas or tarantulas lurking somewhere.

* Shopping mall
Should be fun for girls. Shopping before wedding, then shop again after ! It is convenient in a way. There are practically a lot of things you can do in the mall. Playing games, get manicure, spa, pedicure, massage, haircut, nail polish, buying lingeries, checking out newest gadgets and get some food off the food counters! Sounds like a full day activity already...

* Rain forest
Marrying a botanist? Where is better place to marry than the rain forest? Get a cabin booked and take survival lesson. You might spend your honeymoon in the forest, who knows what animal you will meet. At least you would have survived something at the end of the day!

I have some ideas playing in my mind as I am writing this. But these ideas are just crazy I think they will apply to my own wedding anniversary or if we ever re-do our wedding. I'll keep it for myself :)
