Question from a Bride and Groom . .

What are some of the first things that we need to do if we are having an outdoor wedding next spring at a family member's home?

Response . .

Determine how many guests you plan to invite, the formaility of your wedding, and the time of the event so when you meet with service providers or vendors you will be able to answer several questions.  Determine if there is enough "flat land" for a tent or canopy.  Determine how many bathrooms are in the house and how many you will need to rent (two bathrooms serves 35 guests).  Determine if any outside maintenance is needed (painting, trimming shrubbery, updating outdoor furniture, replacing torn or broken items, etc).  Determine where you plan to park the cars and what other parking areas are available if you do not have enough room to park all the cars expected.  Determine if all of your guests will fit in the house if it is impossible to have the ceremony and/or reception outside due to heavy rain or a severe storm.
