To Be or Not To Be

The main event of an outdoor wedding is none other than Mother Nature. And she is not always in a friendly mood! Your outdoor wedding may always be threatened by a chance of rain, strong winds, or heat. If you are determined to have an outdoor wedding during the summer, try offering guests parasols or fans as a wedding favor. Always have a backup plan, regarding the weather, to play it safe. Check out a local wedding tent rental company for your safety plan. A beautiful clear tent with cafe lighting may be your dream wedding come true. If the heat got you down, try renting from a portable air vendor. I Said Yes! has tons of preferred rental vendors for you to explore. Some outdoor wedding venues may have restrictions, so make sure you speak with your vendor at the meeting. 

The details were so important to Hailee and Mike because they wanted to be able to re-live their beautiful day every time they go back to their wedding album. One of the much-needed details was the restroom trailer, which was provided by Luxe Flush. The trailer was stationed in the backyard of the family property with the tented reception space as well. Hailee and Mike danced on a cloud to “Heaven” by Jason Aldean which matched their hashtag perfectly #oncloudcarvalho. The first dances had everyone in tears. Hailee and Mike LOVE cake pops so instead of a traditional cake topper, they went with cute little bride and groom cake pops and fed them to each other when it was time to cut the cake.

This rustic wedding set a beautiful scene for the happy couple to get married. The bride wore a lace and floral patterned dress with a short trail. Her veil framed the couples attire well. In contrast, to her white, lacey wedding dress, the groom wore a traditional black suit. The suit was paired with a white rose boutonniere to compliment the bride’s bouquet. The groomsmen matched the grooms attire, while the bridesmaids wore different fabrics in a nude color palate. For all of those reasons, the bridal parties attire contrasted beautifully against the outdoor scenery and the indoor, rustic feel.  

Instead of something blue, how about red? We love these beautiful red shoes that our bride picked out. Additionally, it matched beautifully with her floral and was such a fun additional pop of color. The Save the Date and Invitation suite from Shutterfly matched Venue 1902’s aesthetic and the pop of red form their “B” was seal tied everything together perfectly. The groom also wore Star Wars socks and had a quote from Yoda on his tie clip saying “Do or do not, there is no try.”

An unconventional and fun twist was brought in to replace the traditional wedding cake. As you can see, the macaron tower was not only a statement piece at the reception, but also added a splash of color. Additionally, the A-line wedding dress allowed for beautiful movement to be captured in the photos. Admittedly, the bride’s natural make-up and hair highlighted her beauty, and complimented the dress style.

Following their first look, the couple exchanged wedding vows in the Mayan Chapel of this historic wedding venue. Kate and Ryan were married by wedding officiant Katherine T. Imundi.

Further, the chapel was accented with beautiful floral pieces by Atmospheres Floral and Décor.  Correspondingly pairing with the colors of the bridal bouquet.

Unquestionably an outdoor chapel wedding is not complete without live wedding entertainment. For this reason, Harpist Christine MacPhail filled the ceremony with elegant harp music. Moreover the music set the stage for Kate, as she was escorted down the aisle by her father.
