Tips For A Hassle Free Outdoor Wedding Reception In A
Garden
An outdoor wedding reception can basically help save you some expense. The cost of renting an
entire ballroom of function room can be really expensive compared to renting an open field or area with veritably
flat grounds. Other options for an outdoor wedding location are botanical gardens and butterfly parks.
There are drawbacks to planning an outdoor wedding reception and these drawbacks are what we should tackle.
The Weather Must Be Considered When Planning A Outdoor Wedding
Reception
One of the most unpredictable aspects of an outdoor wedding reception is the weather. Even
consulting the local weather bureau cannot guarantee perfect weather all the time. The local weather bureau can
provide a guide for what to expect on your outdoor wedding reception. Heavy rains can be expected if there is
evidence of rain clouds in the horizon so you might want to rent a marquee or a tent to provide shelter for you and
your guests when the need arises.
Other options to an outdoor wedding reception is to have it earlier in the day; a brunch
reception or lunch compared to dinner when it is more likely to rain when the day is colder. If you cannot have the
earlier wedding reception, provide a tent for shelter especially when the local weather channel forecasts
rains.
Other threats to marring your outdoor wedding reception are sudden gusts of wind and too much
bright sunlight. Gusts of wind can sweep away table napkins, table cloth and even clothes. It may be best to keep
an eye on the table napkins when there are gusts of wind during the outdoor wedding reception. The table cloth can
be pinned down to the table legs to avoid it flapping around too much and to have the plates weigh it down on top.
The problem of flapping clothes can be amended by using materials which are heavy enough not to be easily lifted by
the wind when it acts up.
Other things that may need your attention when the wind acts up are place cards, disposable
plastic or paper cups, centerpieces and chair covers. The wind can not only blow away some of your outdoor wedding
reception items but it can also blow in unwanted things such as natural smells of nearby farms and trash cans (if
there are any), as well as dust.
Local Animals And Bugs To Be Considered When Planning A
Outdoor Wedding Reception
An outdoor wedding reception can attract not only people but also animals and insects drawn by
the smell of food. Bug spray can help alleviate some of the insect problems while vigilant helpers can aid in
keeping away local animals that may wonder around the outdoor wedding reception area. It may be best to warn guests
not to wear excessive flower based perfumes and scent because some bees can be drawn to the scent of these and may
plague the guests.
