OUTDOOR WEDDING DECORATIONS

Outdoor Wedding Decoration Ideas
Wedding arches offer a focal point and make great outside wedding decorations. You can buy a relatively simple white, metal wedding arch at major craft stores for between $20 and $40. Be sure to look into the wedding arch fees if you're having a destination wedding. An alternative to the traditional arch is a balloon arch. Balloon arches can be amazingly elegant, with understated balloons that look like pearls and a soft tulle base.

Outdoor Wedding Reception Decoration
The beauty of the ocean or a forest needs little embellishment. Let the location speak for itself when planning an outdoor wedding. Décor should be simple. Complement the surroundings; don't compete with them. For example, if the site is near a rose garden, complement with rose centerpieces and outdoor wedding candles. If the site is full of shrubs, use simple greenery in your décor.

Outdoor Wedding Ceremony Decorations
With careful planning your vision can be a reality. Many locations are able to accommodate your ceremony and reception at the same site, whether you hold your wedding in the park, on the beach, or in your backyard. To create the perfect atmosphere you may want to include chair decorations, topiaries, columns, aisle bows and ceremony arch, which when carefully placed can turn any location into a unique setting.

Outdoor Wedding Décor
When it comes to rousing wedding-day wonder, not many sites can rival the great outdoors, and the options are infinite: the drama of a rock-strewn sea shore, a perfumed and romantic botanical garden, and even the sentimental familiarity of your own backyard. You should also look into the outdoor wedding packages California has to offer. The four most popular outdoor wedding settings are:

Botanical gardens
Home sweet home
The seaside
National parks

Décor for Outside Wedding
There's no place like home for your wedding. To decorate, decide what features make your home special. Is it the enormous house? An expansive lawn? A stunning lake view? Strut your home's stuff and add special accents, but don't over-decorate. Bear in mind that for an evening event, lighting is crucial both for safety and atmosphere, so you may want to hire a professional lighting designer.
