Having an outdoor marriage is a great way to celebrate that important moment in your life in a different way, whether you are ecologically aware, or a nature enthusiast, a lover of beaches, or even if you just want to say your vows under a clear sky, an outdoor wedding will be something to remember.
Notwithstanding, there are lots of pitfalls that you need to take into account if you want to get married outdoors. Many things can happen differently to your plan, so toy need to be as prepared as possible.
1) Your guest's comfort should be one of your foremost thoughts. Consider the weather, for instance. If your wedding is going to be in the winter, make sure that extra blankets are available if anyone is cold. In the summer, make sure that there is plenty of shade, and in all seasons, put up a windbreaker if the area is windy. And make sure that everyone is adequately seated, and especially so elderly people.
2) Have plenty of drinks available close to where everyone will be congregating to avoid discomfort and dehydration. Cold water is paramount, and hot drinks will be much appreciated in chilly weather. And of course, fruity drinks for the young ones and some bottles of champagne or sparkling wine for the adults are always welcome.
3) Getting wed outside means that thanks to the natural beauty of the surroundings, you will probably not have to decorate much, but some added pizzazz is always welcome. Extra flower bouquets are a good idea, and something to act a sda backdrop to the ceremony also helps to draw focus.
4) Dedicate special attention to the nose and sound situation. All the guests want to hear the ceremony unfolding, so heavy surf or some other background noise are unwelcome. Use a microphone and loudspeakers if necessary.
5) Do something against insects, if there is little wind in the area. Especially so at sunset. Repelling candles are great, and giving guests lotions to drive away the critters is also a possibility.
6) Check that you have all the permits necessary to hold the wedding in the chosen outdoor location, and make sure that you are not breaking any rules with matters such as waste disposal, vehicle parking or photography.
7) Have an alternative. The weather may turn sour, so you need to be able to hold the ceremony indoors if necessary. If you are in a somewhat built-up area you should have a hall available nearby, while if you are celebrating in a faraway place it makes a lot of sense to erect a big party tent, for all occurrences.
