Outdoor weddings are well-suited for wedding music, either live or recorded. Popular live wedding music options often include cellists, string quartets, or acoustic guitar players, which don't require major equipment amplification and have a timeless, romantic quality. For recorded music, options abound. Your outdoor wedding venue may have its own outdoor sound system already—you should ask them! Likewise, if you're hiring a DJ, they may be able to provide their own outdoor-ready sound equipment. For most weddings, a simple rentable speaker should provide enough volume, which can even just be plugged into an iPhone in a pinch. Power can be provided via a rented portable battery or simply by running extension cords from the nearest building.
If you search for outdoor wedding planning checklists online, you'll find some good ones! If you have one, your wedding planner will likely have their own custom checklist that they use throughout the wedding season, too. Ultimately, the best outdoor wedding planning checklist is the one you customize to suit your own wedding, so we recommend digging into multiple sources and using them as a basis for crafting your own personalized checklist.
Peerspace lets you search specifically for stunning outdoor wedding venues near you, and you'll find that they're often way cheaper than renting a wedding venue through traditional means. Most couples report that their wedding venue is the biggest of their wedding expenses, and if you've started looking at venues yet, that probably won't surprise you—the prices are often shockingly high. The outdoor wedding venues listed on Peerspace also include unique, offbeat options that go far beyond your run-of-the-mill wedding venues. When you start thinking outside of the box and getting more creative with your plans, opportunities for saving money on your wedding budget abound.
Decorating for an outdoor wedding should complement the natural beauty of your stunning outdoor wedding venue. And if you search online, you'll find a ton of decoration ideas out there, from rustic DIY wedding decoration ideas to generally dazzling outdoor party ideas that can be applied to weddings. It helps to organize your decorating strategy into categories, like table decorations (centerpieces and place settings), lights (think string lights, candles, and lamps), set pieces, and seating. Accentuate the natural beauty of the outdoors with floral arrangements, and think of ways to decorate that double as ways to make guests more comfortable—like canvas umbrellas that provide shade.
