Conclusion

So whether your dream wedding includes a romantic ceremony in front of a rugged desert vista filled with cacti or an upscale soiree in a Victorian mansion, one of the venues on this list just might be the perfect fit for you!

 

Tucson Provides a Wide Variety in Wedding Venues

Deciding where to host your wedding is a very important part of planning your wedding. This decision is likely to influence the cost you pay for your wedding, the wedding vendors you use, and your day’s outcome. If you are thinking about getting married in Tucson, you will have a nice selection of places to choose from, all the way from traditional to quirky. With these many options, you should be able to find a venue that suits you perfectly.

 

Venues with a Western Vibe

If you’re thinking about donning your cowboy boots on your wedding day or just love the western vibe, you will love the Oasis at Wild Horse Ranch. The venue is surrounded by lush desert and features a rich history and captivating beauty. It has many different indoor and outdoor facilities that you can use to host your wedding. Wedding packages are available from $60 to $148 per person and can be customized to suit your budget and style.  

 

Venue with an Urban Flair

If you are looking for an urban space, consider The Carriage House. Located downtown, this beautiful venue features a high ceiling, brick walls, beautiful wooden dark floors, and exquisite light fixtures. It is the perfect blend of old and new and can accommodate both a ceremony and reception and is very affordable, with the ceremony site available for $1000 and the reception site for $500.  

 

Nature Venues

Outdoor weddings are very popular in Tucson as they take advantage of the scenic beauty and the beautiful weather that Tucson has to offer, especially during fall and spring.  Nature-loving couples may want to check out the Tucson Botanical Garden with its lush garden and enchanting indoor and outdoor venues that will help to make your day truly magical. The rental fee for the garden ranges from $2000-$2900.

Catalina State Park is another venue providing amazing natural beauty. You will also love how affordable the rental of the park is, costing less than $250 once you leave the venue clean and tidy.  The Wedding Report 2022 issue states that couples in Tucson spent an average of $30,438 that year to host their wedding. With affordable venue options like this, your cost is likely to be a lot lower as the venue cost accounts for a significant portion of the venue cost.

 

Unique Venues

If you are looking for venues with a unique touch, the Reid Park Zoo is a good place to start. Its amazing collection of diverse animals serve as an exotic backdrop for this momentous occasion in your life. They have a wide variety of outdoor venues that will be just perfect for you and your guests to enjoy with the vibrant and lush landscape. For an average of 100 persons, rental of the venue will be about $6,000-$10,000. Outdoor venues will be great for the fall when temperatures in the 70s and 80s are felt. 

Winter is also mild with temperatures in the 60s and serves best for early morning weddings when the time is warmer. 

 

Resorts and Hotels

Resorts, inns, and hotels are also available to host guests and often allow you to have your ceremony and reception in one place. These locations are also available for block reservation, even if your wedding will be held elsewhere.  Lodge on the Desert is one such location that will happily accommodate your guests and wedding proceedings. With its manicured lawn, secluded pathways, majestic palms, and Catalina Mountains for a backdrop, the perfect setting for a romantic wedding is created. For a guest number of 50, this venue can be rented starting at $2,106.

 

Summers in Tucson are hot and dry, and so while most weddings tend not to occur at this time, if you decide to go ahead with a summer wedding in Tucson, you may want to consider an indoor wedding. And as you can see, there are wedding options available to accomplish this. Whatever your style, taste, or budget, Tucson has a venue perfectly suited for you.
