With the popularity of Idaho outdoor weddings increasing, there are several things every bride should consider. Many brides’ parents, grandparents or other family members may have a yard that is beautiful enough for a wedding, but be sure to ask yourself these questions before making that decision.
- Where will everyone park? Established outdoor Idaho Wedding Venues come with parking for your guests because weddings are their business.
- Are family members comfortable with having the wedding party, etc. in their home for changing into wedding attire? Do carpets need to be cleaned? Rooms cleaned for the wedding party? Bathrooms readied for extra people? Extra yard work done?
- What about tables and chairs, tents, portable outdoor restrooms for your guests? And who will set it up and tear it down afterwards? Many established outdoor venues include some of this, it not all, in their price. Some venues even have areas for dancing or dance floors so you do not have to rent one.
- Insurance- be sure you have enough coverage to cover someone getting hurt accidentally or a child falling in a water feature or pool. A rider on your homeowners policy would be a good thing when you have a wedding at your own home.
Before choosing where to have your outdoor wedding, consider all the rental fees and work involved getting the location ready verses the cost to have your wedding at an established Idaho Wedding Venue. This is your day, make it as relaxing and stress free as possible for you and your family. Let the professionals make that happen!
