A backyard wedding is so much fun and great to plan. You can really be creative when planning your backyard wedding. You need to make sure you are careful when you plan so that you don't run into problems.
If you don't want to plan the backyard wedding yourself, you can always hire a wedding planner. Wedding planners plan backyard weddings all the time so they know what to be careful with and what you need to have so your wedding will be perfect.
If you plan to prepare your backyard wedding yourself, here are some tips you can use.
You will want to be careful of the date you choose when you plan to have a backyard wedding. Rain and wind can cause problems, so you will want to plan your wedding accordingly. Of course, the weather is unpredictable so you will need to make sure you have a back up plan just in case.
The first thing you need to be very clear about when you are planning your backyard wedding is the number of people you invite. You are limited on the space and the number of chairs you can have, so you don't want to invite too many guests and not have enough chairs. The worst thing you can do is have your guests stand during the ceremony.
When you are planning your backyard wedding, you will want to rent a tent so your guests will have shade. In the summer, it can be very hot and the clothes you and your guests will be wearing can make it even hotter. So the tent will help shade them from the sun and get some relief as well.
Decorating is minimal when you have a backyard wedding. You will have chairs for your guests so you won't have pews to decorate. You may not be able to have a candelabra so that will be another expense you won't have. Flowers are another thing you won't have too many of since you will be outside.
The dresses your bridesmaids wear will also need to go with the atmosphere. You may consider spaghetti strap or strapless dresses to help keep them cooler with the warm temps. It's a little more difficult with the men since they will need to wear a tux. You can help by eliminating the vest that goes under the jacket and have them wear short sleeve shirts rather than long sleeve ones.
You will also need to be careful with your cake, drinks, and food for your reception. Most brides who plan backyard weddings plan for the reception at the same location. This will save you money because you won't have the rental expense of a reception hall, but you have to be careful with the food. You don't want it to go bad before your guests get a chance to eat it. You will want to keep it refrigerated for as long as possible.
Planning backyard weddings can be so much fun. They are so beautiful and you have many more options that you may not be able to do in a church. There are things you have to be careful with, but in the long run you will be so happy that you chose to have your wedding outside. Backyard weddings can also save you money because you won't have too much decorating to do, you won't have the cost of renting a hall for the reception, and you won't have the cost of the church. Planning a backyard wedding is the way to go!
