Outdoor venues provide a beautiful, relaxing atmosphere for your wedding ceremony and/or reception. In fact, more and more spring and summertime weddings are held outside than ever before. However, many brides (and grooms!) worry about what to do in case of rain or other adverse weather. Weddings tents are considered the best alternative to preparing for such scenarios. Interestingly, many worry whether a tent will detract from the open, inviting outdoor atmosphere, but tents actually create a more formal, cozy setting while still maintaining that “open” feel.

Always Keep Your Guests in Mind
It is always important to keep your guests in mind when planning an outdoor wedding. If you are planning one, make sure to invest in a nice wedding tent over the ceremony location for those sitting outside to shade them from the hot sun or even rain. You can also place fans strategically around to help keep guests cool. By the end of the night, you will probably find that those sitting outside will love the atmosphere and environment and will remember the wedding for years! In fact, don’t be surprised if people started unexpectedly migrating outside under the tent after dinner. Although you may have a gorgeous indoor venue for the reception, the outdoor space can be more enjoyable due to the smell of the flowers, the open, freeing feel, and the cool, shaded area under the tent.
Anticipate Problems
Wedding tents also enable you to prevent any potential weather issues. They are designed to be rain and weather resistant. Also, if you plan on serving any drinks outside (or plan on having an ice sculpture!), a tent will help keep the area cool to prevent the ice from melting quickly – and not to mention will keep your guests cool. Setting up multiple tents may create an even more enjoyable atmosphere as guests can move freely from tent to tent, or choose to mingle outside in the sun.
Create the Setting They’ll Never Forget
Based on information from people who have used these tents, most of them would never suggest holding an outdoor wedding without a wedding tent. You want your guests to remember your wedding as the best they’ve ever experienced, not the one they’ll remember complaining about for years to come.
