Outdoor weddings are unique, fun and unforgettable. However, if you want yours to be perfect, you should make sure to pay attention to certain details that are specific to this type of wedding. Here are some of the most important tips to keep in mind if you want a fabulous outdoor wedding:
- Location makes the difference. Choosing a beautiful location for your outdoor wedding can make all the difference in the world. There are a lot of venues that offer outdoor reception options, but if you are running on a tighter budget or if you want your Big Day to be even more unique, there are other types of locations you can use as well. Vineyards, national parks and beaches are perfect for weddings and they will definitely add a truly original touch to your décor.
- Don’t forget about the backup plan. Regardless of the exact location of your wedding, keep in mind that weather can be unpredictable. For your own peace of mind and for the success of your wedding, you should make sure to have a backup plan (an indoor venue or a wedding tent, for example).
- Make sure your guests are comfortable. If you want everyone to feel amazing at your wedding, you should think of ways to make them feel really comfortable. Provide them with comfy seating, cooling options, paper fans, water, transportation to/from the location, delicious food and drinks and all the other “tools” to be sure they truly enjoy themselves. Also, don’t forget to inform them of the attire they should wear.
- Last, but definitely not least, invest in spectacular lighting. If you plan on having an evening/night reception, having beautiful lighting will definitely pay off. You don’t have to spend a lot of money on it, but it will look gorgeous once the night sets in and it will allow you to shoot some fabulous photos too. Moreover, it will be the perfect complement to the natural landscape around you as well!
