Hosting a Roanoke Island wedding, judging by the number of people doing it these days and what they are saying, is a pretty nice thing to do. You can see why too.
First, Roanoke Island is a truly beautiful place. Islands on the Outer Banks have a lot of visual appeal. Roanoke Island, with the gardens and the marsh and the lovely waterfront town and the gorgeous sunsets on the sound, makes for a spectacular setting. You can do a Manteo, NC, wedding at a quaint bed and breakfast or in one of the elegant wedding venues or outside at the waterfront gazebo or on the Town grounds or at the Roanoke Marshes Lighthouse. Roanoke Island weddings (in other words, events outside the Town of Manteo limits) can be located at the Elizabethan Gardens, the NC Aquarium, a Wanchese venue with sweeping views of the marshes or at one of the local churches.
There are a few other reasons that Manteo weddings are popular. The small town environment brings out the best in people. It’s personal and intimate and relaxed here. And people seem to feel at home. Somehow, a Manteo wedding feels like a world away from what you’re used to yet still like you’re in a familiar place where everyone is nice to you.
Another reason is that the Roanoke Island wedding facilities are well-placed and picture-perfect. Guests can stay at different B&Bs or hotels and be within walking distance of each other. Many of the wedding facilities — churches, reception sites, restaurants — are also within walking distance or a short drive, so everything is kept simple and safe. And there is always plenty for guests to do when they come from out of town. People are generally pretty happy with the idea of getting to spend a few days vacationing when they come for your Outer Banks wedding.
