20 | Sacramento, CA

Sacramento has all of the great weather of San Francisco, but way cheaper.

With the legendary vices of Bourbon Street, the cheap drinks, and the 24-hour nightlife, it's no wonder New Orleans tops the list of The 50 Hardest Partying Cities in the U.S. But its classy jazz scene, dreamy lantern-lit alleyways, and world-class dining also makes it the perfect place for romance.

17 | Denver, CO

It's certainly not the cheapest on the list, thanks to the fact that Denver is a world-class ski destination, but at least that makes it easy to get to! Once you arrive, there's no shortage of cozy hotels nestled among snow-capped mountains and hillside restaurants with fireside dining that offer awesome wedding packages, which is why it scored so high on the list for "facilities and services."

15 | Houston, TX

Did you know that Houston is home to a house adorned with a staggering 50,000 beer cans, which are used to line the roof and walls? It's one of the best roadside attraction in America, but it's just one of the many attractions in this cosmopolitan wonderland.

14 | Tucson, AZ

Don't let the hot weather scare you; home to the University of Arizona, Tuscon is basically a college town wrapped inside a city, which is why it's both cheap and a major party town.

Washington has the most event planners per 100,000 residents, 103, which is 17.2 times more than in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, the city with the fewest at 6. And in addition to being famous for some of the best coffee in the country, this city is known for its incredible craft beer.

11 | Austin, TX

Austin has become pretty popular among coastal millennials over the last few years, thanks in large part to its eclectic live music scene. But it's also got a surprising amount of luxury hotels, and the Lake Austin spa is one of the 15 Most Luxurious Spas in America.

9 | New York, NY

Even though New York still has one of the highest average wedding costs in the country ($88,176 for Manhattan) you can't really beat New York. And if you want to get hitched in the vicinity, Westchester is almost half the cost ($45,709). Not only that, but Yonkers, has the most photographers per 100,000 residents, 183, which is 36.6 times more than in Laredo, Texas, the city with the fewest at 5.

8 | Chicago, IL

Chicago is basically a compact, cheaper version of New York. It's got an incredible theater, literature, and jazz scene, not to mention it's Barack Obama's hometown. The El train makes it super easy to get around, and it doesn't get much more romantic than walking by the river and watching the amber lights of street lamps shimmering in the water below and reflecting off of the glass skyscrapers above.

Its Art Institute has one of the largest collections of impressionist art in the world, and its zoo (which is totally free) is a joy for kids and families. No wonder it scored so high in Wallet Hub's ranking of activities and attractions!

7 | San Francisco, CA

San Francisco has the most musicians per 100,000 residents, 22, which is 66.7 times more than in Anchorage, Alaska, the city with the fewest at 0.33. No wonder it ranked number one in the Facilities and Services rank in the study!

5 | Miami, FL

Chic and sleek, Miami is home to some of the best hotels in America, and the nightclub scene has been immortalized in rap and hip hop tracks. It might be one of the more expensive locales on this list, but if you want your wedding to be the party of a lifetime, there's no better place.

4 | Los Angeles, CA

In addition to having some of the most churches per capita, LA has no shortage of incredible restaurants, tourist hot spots, and swanky hotels. No wonder it ranked number one on the Wallet Hub study for "Activities and Attractions."

Getting married in Vegas; sounds like a cliché, right? But when you consider the insane amount of hotel and dining options, the capital of drunken marriages starts to look pretty damn good. Not to mention, the very name itself is synonymous with a good time.

1 | Orlando, FL

El Paso, Texas, scored the lowest average cost (at $13,513, it's 3.2 times lower than in Bridgeport, Connecticut, the city with the highest average cost, at $43,165), but its inconvenient location and lack of resources means it didn't make the cut for the top 20. Of the ones that did, Orlando had the lowest average cost, at around $18,797. On top of that, you've got loads of resorts, sunny beaches, and the magical kingdom that is Walt Disney World, which offers a plethora of affordable wedding packages sure to delight both kids and adults.
