This photo features recycled pallets beautifully dressed in a bold tablecloth to create a cosy outdoor vibe. www.my lovebirdswedding.com www.ade n priestphotography.co.uk Ruby says: Another aspect to consider is lighting; you can create beautiful zones and walkways within a large area using cleverly placed festoon lighting on shepherd hooks. You will require electricity for this, so hiring a generator is vital! You can be creative when it comes to catering choices; there are an abundance of amazing food trucks and outdoor catering options to explore – don’t forget a bar! www.thee nglishweddingcompany.co.uk https://sam a nthahook.co.uk Hayley says: Hiring trestle tables and charivari chairs can transform an outdoor space into a stunning dining and reception area. Dressing tables with soft chiffon table runners can create a beautiful starting point for your décor. Adding charger plates instantly lifts the table and creates a luxurious feel in relaxed surroundings. Ruby says: There’s something so indescribably magical about an outdoor wedding, whether it’s in your garden or in front of a stately home. When planning an outdoor wedding in the UK, the most important thing to consider is hiring a wedding planner and have a backup plan in case of bad weather! Depending on your theme, you might want to use kilim rugs and large cushions or velvet sofas and coffee tables for a more refined look. If your wedding is in autumn or winter, create cosy seating areas around a firepit with warm blankets, sparklers and marshmallows! www.thev intagehousethatcould.co.uk https://kath rynltaylor.com MEET THE SUPPLIERS Katie Sutton | The Vintage House That Could www.thevintagehousethatcould.co.uk Hayley Belcher | The English Wedding Co www.theenglishweddingcompany.co.uk Ruby Adds | Love Birds, Weddings & Events www.mylovebirdswedding.com www.mylovebirdswedding.com www.ade n priestphotography.co.uk Katie says: Ensuring your guests can see and hear the ceremony is so important; make sure the chairs are laid out correctly and create a walkway with rugs to help the space feel cosier.
