Top 3 Reasons For My Outdoor Wedding

On August 24, 2013, my husband and I were married in a beautiful outdoor ceremony.  It's been two months now and I have no regrets about my decision to have an outdoor wedding.  Not only did it save us money, but the pictures turned out amazing.

Here are my top three reasons for having an outdoor wedding:

1.  The scenery.  Who doesn't want a beautiful scenery for their special occasion?  I know I did.  The main reason I chose our location was the scenery.  The outdoors has so much to offer.  Our location consisted of a cabin, a pond, and views that were priceless.


2.  Lots of room.  With a wedding outdoors, guests are free to roam as they mingle before and after the wedding.  They also have the option of standing if they don't want to be crowded in the seating area.  Hay bales were used for seating at my wedding and the guests seemed to love them.  Several of my guests chose to stand just to have a better view.  

3.  Less decorations.  No need to waste money on tons of decorations that will be thrown away.  At an outdoor wedding you can use flowers, trees, water, rocks, etc. as your decor at no cost.  This was my main idea when wedding planning, any where I could save a dollar.


What's your opinion on an outdoor wedding?  Are any of your reasons for an outdoor wedding the same as mine?
