With two beautiful ballrooms NOOR isn’t considered an outdoor event space, but did you know NOOR also has two breathtaking outdoor wedding venues? The combination allows both wedding ceremonies and wedding receptions to take place in the same location, removing travel headaches from wedding plans and allowing more dedicated time for celebrating. Couples often elect to have an outdoor wedding ceremony followed by an indoor reception here at NOOR, and sometimes couples who love the great outdoors decide to go outdoor for both.

The level of “alternative” varies and doesn’t necessarily mean every aspect of the wedding strays from the traditional. Some of our couples just love to thread their own individuality through their weddings without it being a full blown alternative affair. Others like to go all out and make their wedding completely different and unexpected in every way. Trends are definitely flowing towards couples including more of themselves and their particular tastes in….
