Savannah Wedding Venue Costs & Fees

Savannah's squares and parks offer a clear ceremony-rental schedule, but nonresident prices vary by season. Security and a separate reception can matter more than the application fee.

How to compare your options

For an out-of-town couple, changing the month can lower the ceremony rental without changing the park. However, that difference should not drive the entire decision until you compare hotel and reception quotes for both dates. Use the four-hour reservation as a vendor-access plan, with a written arrival and removal schedule, rather than assuming four hours of guest celebration.

Questions for your Savannah venue

  • Is our date affected by a festival, parade or park restriction?
  • How is security arranged and billed?
  • Does our setup and breakdown fit inside the reserved block?

Ask for one written total

Have the venue separate rent, required services, food and beverage minimums, service charges, tax and deposits. Confirm which payments reduce the final balance and which are extra. Request the cancellation, weather and overtime terms with the quote.

If coordination is included or required, compare its scope with a wedding coordinator or day-of coordinator before hiring additional help.
