====Bastok====
;Metalworks: (10 Guests, 20,000 Gil)
The first location is the pride of Bastok and the birthplace of much of our advanced technology, the Metalworks. Chief Engineer Cid has generously allowed the small room enshrined with a statue of the Goddess to be used for wedding ceremonies.
While certainly not the most spacious location for your special day, for a small ceremony with only those closest to you, it is unsurpassed. The memories created in the flickering candlelight of the altar will last a lifetime.
;Port Bastok: (36 Guests, 80,000 Gil)
This corner of the wharf faces the Dalha River where it empties into the sea. Airships and the drawbridge provide a continuous change of scenery that will keep wedding guests entertained.
