VENUES Sleep Easy 19608 views
If wedding guests are travelling from far and wide for your big day, look into accommodation options. Remember to offer suggestions for all budgets, from B&B to five-star luxury. At the budget end, we love the funky nitenite hotels.
Call it the credit crunch, bur Mintel predict that the budget hotel sector is set to rise by 38 per cent over the next five years. Good news for wedding guests who want more splash for their cash than a B&B with too much chintz and restricting curfew hours. 
Leading the way for a new budget hotel group called nitenite, the recently-opened nitenite Birmingham (0845 8909099) has 104 boutique-style rooms in the heart of the city, close to the uber-cool shopping mall, Mailbox. Rates start at £44.95 for a double room with a 42" plasma TV, en-suite power shower and Egyptian cotton bed linen. Funky natural decor is created with high quality furnishings in leather and cherrywood.
If your guests are comfortable with the idea of a luxury yacht cabin with no sea views (none of the rooms have windows!), nitenite Birmingham is a stylish bolthole for after-the-wedding celebrations - that won't cost the earth. On the morning after, guests can head to the Cafe Bar for breakfast or check out the brunchtime scene on Brindleyplace, Broad Street and The Mailbox.

The venue will decorate the tables with flowers and arrange your place cards.
