Once you have selected the location, you then need to decide on the site of your reunion.

The possibilities are endless whether it be an old homestead, somewhere close to home or a national park. When deciding on the location and/or site for your family reunion, you should consider:

• Distance
  Most of your relatives will not be willing to travel long distances for a short reunion, therefore selecting a location close to where the majority of your family members reside is your best option. Longer or one time reunions do warrant more elaborate locations such as a resort or cruise.


• Convenience
  If there are numerous travelling relatives, then you should choose a location close to the airport. This will be most convenient and easy to get to, otherwise people may be less inclined to attend.


• Accessibility
  Location must accommodate wheelchairs for elderly relatives and strollers for young children. You want to make sure everyone will be comfortable and safe.


• Affordability
  You must make sure that the location you choose fits into your budget. Try to obtain group discounts and packaged deals.


• Accommodations
  You need to make sure that you choose a location with nearby and affordable entertainment, hotels and restaurants.


• Features and Activities
  Which activities you want to do or attractions you want to see should be considered prior to selecting. Where your reunion is held should be nearby the entertainment or activities planned.
