Choosing an indoor or outdoor wedding is one of the first big decisions an engaged couple makes when planning their wedding day. Once you narrow down the location, you’ll need to choose a venue. Don’t forget to consider potential weather challenges, your ideal guest count, and those special details that truly personalize your big day.
Indoor
Here are some of the benefits of an indoor wedding; the weather is never an issue, you can schedule it for any time of the year, guests are often more comfortable and everyone has easy access to restrooms. There are fewer distractions and increased privacy. You control the lighting and you can decorate the space however you wish. You won’t need to worry about bugs or animals and an indoor venue can help you meet a fixed wedding budget, as there are fewer costs associated with it.
Outdoor
However, there’s no limit to how many guests you invite to an outdoor wedding, as there are no space limitations. If decorating isn’t really your thing, an outdoor venue means fewer decorations. It can often mean a less formal event, which suits many lovebirds perfectly. Outdoor weddings are also more kid-friendly and can be personalized to a much greater degree. You can save money and maximize all the lovely benefits of natural lighting.
Your preferred season affects your decision – not only in the venue but also in what you will wear and if your wedding will occur inside or outside. Many couples decide on an outdoor wedding like this couple did, and here are some reasons why.
- Wedding Photos – Being surrounded by nature is peaceful and beautiful.
- Natural lighting puts more light on the subject of the photo and delivers richer details.
- Minimal Decor – You don’t need as many decorations when you have scenic beauty.
- Accommodating Large Parties – Plenty of room many guests
