1. Weather Conditions

2. Venue Selection
The venue you choose will set the tone for your outdoor wedding. There are many stunning outdoor venues to choose from, such as gardens, beaches, parks, or even a backyard. It’s important to visit the venue beforehand to assess the space and ensure it meets your expectations for size, accessibility, and amenities like washrooms and electricity. Also, consider the atmosphere, view, and privacy, as well as any restrictions.
3. Permits
Depending on the location, you may need to obtain permits for your outdoor wedding. When choosing a public space for your marriage, find out if the place has been licensed by the Attorney General to officiate marriages on its ground. If you rent a space for your wedding and it is not registered, then its invalid. Ask questions. Always questions when renting a space for your ceremony.
4. Electricity
Electricity is crucial for every wedding ceremony. It is needed at the venue to power lighting, sound systems, and others. Even if a venue has electricity, you may also need a standby generator in case things don’t go as planned.
5. Guest Comfort
Outdoor weddings often require extra attention to guest comfort. Be mindful of seating arrangements and essential amenities. Are there adequate washrooms available at the venue? Are they are easily accessible for all guests, including those with mobility challenges? Portable restroom rentals can be a great solution for venues without built-in facilities.
