With new government regulations here in full force this year (and for the foreseeable), it\u2019s probably best we take wedding celebrations outside. In response to this, we\u2019ve decided to put a checklist of pretty much everything you need to know about Irish outdoor weddings.<\/p>\n
Don\u2019t worry, there\u2019s plenty to find on Pinterest! From DIY tutorials to ingenious tips on having a perfect ceremony and of course amazing Etsy finds, there is little that can\u2019t be found on Pinterest. And for wedding venue inspiration, check out the new outdoor section<\/a> of our site!<\/p>\n Sounds obvious, but it\u2019s important to consider. Will your guests be able to get around in heels during the ceremony? Will they be able to hear you as you say \u2018I do\u2019? Do you have an alternative for them if it rains? Is there a clear sign for where they can use restrooms? It\u2019s important to consider all your options and possibilities, which brings us to the next point\u2026<\/p>\n Finding someone who knows what they are doing is invaluable here. It may be a part of a venue\u2019s wedding team that have worked in outdoor receptions before or it may even be a wedding planner. Either way, this person will have the know-how to source what you will need to make the reception go off without a hitch.<\/p>\n One rule any good wedding must obey is to make your guests feel at home. This is especially true for an outdoor affair! You should try to cater to all types of possible weather conditions; supply brollies and shawls for drizzle or sunnies and fans for warmer weather. Cushioned chairs also work well regardless of weather as uncovered chairs can get very hot in warmth or absolutely freezing in a strong breeze. And if you are in a wooded area, bring insect repellent. It\u2019s also vital that you always have a Plan B \u2013 a marquee or some shelter just in case!<\/p>\n A huge trend in ceremonies across the UK and Ireland, we love the idea of designing your day with some indoor d\u00e9cor. You can get as creative as you like here with lamps, cushions or even couches! The outdoors is your room, so can really take your theme up a level and play up to it.<\/p>\nBe Practical<\/strong><\/h2>\n
