A wedding in Prague: the complete guide

A wedding in Prague has one big advantage: easy access to venues, suppliers, hotels, transport and services. At the same time it comes with city complications: parking, tourist crowds, transfers, higher prices at some venues and more pressure on an exact schedule.

Prague works best for couples who want an elegant city day, good access for guests and a wide choice of suppliers. You need to plan the logistics in more detail than at a self-contained countryside venue.

Choosing a venue in Prague

• Prague venues range from hotels and restaurants to historic halls, gardens, villas and industrial spaces. When choosing, think not only about beauty but also about parking, public transport, noise limits, when the music has to end and nearby accommodation.

• At city venues, ask whether you can have the ceremony and the meal in one place. Every transfer in Prague adds a risk of delay.

Transport and accommodation

• Give guests clear instructions: the address, parking, the nearest public transport stop, a taxi pick-up point, recommended hotels and the arrival time. If the ceremony is in the centre, expect tourists and limited parking.

• For guests from abroad or from Moravia, it's worth recommending accommodation close to the evening part. Getting around the city at night is easier than from countryside venues, but guests must know where they're going.

Photos in Prague

• Prague offers beautiful locations, but the popular spots are often crowded. The photographer should know alternatives, the times with good light and places where you can shoot quickly without stress.

• Don't overload the schedule with photo shoots in five locations. Two realistic places and buffer time for the transfer are better.

Budget and suppliers

• Prague can be more expensive for the venue, parking, accommodation and some premium services. On the other hand, there's a wide choice of suppliers, so comparing offers can be easier.

• A coordinator often pays off at a Prague wedding if you have several venues, guests from abroad or a more complicated schedule.
