Weddings are a special occasion in every groom and bride’s life. While a perfect location can make it all the more special and memorable for them. It impacts the celebration, rituals and comfort of the guests, so an ideal occasion can add more charm to any wedding. Moreover, it’s not just about accommodating the guest, but rather creating the perfect ambience that reflects your style. Since there are so many options to choose from, it is important to know that a venue can make or break the event.
Every couple has something different in mind for a beautiful and unique venue as per their different needs. This backdrop of the memorable day is further decked up by decorators or event planners to create the atmosphere of your dream wedding. The biggest confusion in this quest can be choosing between an indoor or outdoor wedding venue. But, understanding the needs of your wedding style can enable you to get an answer. Two important considers for choosing a location are:
- Climate– Climate can be a big factor when deciding the date and venue of a wedding. For instance, an outdoor wedding in spring can be a good idea to enjoy the summer breeze. Although, for extreme summers indoors can do. On the other hand, indoors is ideal for the cooler months to stay cosy during the celebrations.
- Budget– Above all the other things, it is necessary to make sure that a venue fits your budget. If you choose an outdoor venue there can be a need for a few tents to tackle rainy situations or make some shade for the food counters which will involve extra costs. So, you must keep your budget at the core for choosing a venue. If an indoor venue is at a hotel or luxury resort, it will be more expensive than an outdoor venue.
Both the indoor and outdoor venues have their pros and cons and we have curated them to help you make a decision.
Indoor Venues
Better Control– An indoor venue helps to ensure better control of the decoration, climate and celebrations. For instance, lights can easily be placed in an indoor venue as per need than in the outdoor one. Also, it can help to avoid interference of sudden and nasty changes in the environment.
Limited views– Like an outdoor venue, you cannot expect good towering views from an indoor view. Even you cannot enjoy the charm of a star-filled sky at night wedding celebrations. Rather, the event might stay unaffected by the hour of the day.
Easy decorations– Most of indoor venues are already furnished and require a little touch of your selected decor. Also, they already have a stage, tables, chairs and decked-up ceilings. So, it saves extra time and effort consumed in the decoration part.
Photography issues– An issue that you might come across in indoor venues is that you won’t get a natural background for pictures. Either a photo background has to be prepared or additional lights need to be put up for it.
No sound interference– Often the people living near the venue complain about loud late-night music that can hamper the celebrations. But, in an indoor venue, you might not have such issues and there will be no sound interference from streets or traffic noise in the venue.
Outdoor Venue
Bugs– Naturally, you might face intervention by mosquitoes, ants, flies and bugs easily in an outdoor venue. They are particularly more numerous during the summer and rainy season which can be irritable for the guests.
More Decor– Another important aspect is the decor. Outdoor venues are not furnished and don’t have chairs, stages or tables that need to be placed. Also, a shed or tent with additional lights needs to be placed. So, there is a need for more decor in an outdoor space than in an indoor one.
Extra electric outlets– Since, you won’t find an electric outlet in an outdoor venue, they need to be extended or separately placed to use lights, DJ or other electronic equipment used in a wedding. For this, a special electrician needs to be arranged who shall look after these arrangements.
Noise– There is no doubt that an outdoor venue will have additional noises like traffic, nearby crowds, busy streets etc. This cannot be controlled and interfere with the music or DJ that can become irritable at the wedding.
Better views– The best part about outdoor venues is that the occasion can be enjoyed in an open atmosphere with better natural views of the sky. Also, this makes a better and more natural background for good photography.
