A Lovely Outdoor Wedding

On a beautiful porch

What's more memorable and charming than an outdoor wedding on a beautiful porch? Our friends, David and Laura, were married on this beautiful porch on the evening of July 5th, 1997. Their wedding was very fun and relaxed!

Laura and David's wonderful wedding

Their wedding vows were exchanged on the steps of the porch. Here you can see wonderful photos from that special day.

Laura and David's reception was a big picnic with picnic baskets on the tables filled with wine and fruit.

They had fried chicken, corn on the cob, watermelon - all the fixings you'd expect on the 4th of July. Kids were given Mason jars to catch lightening bugs. What a sweet memory.

Enjoy these pictures of their wedding ceremony and the wonderful stone porch where they exchanged their wedding vows. Their porch wedding was so charming and memorable.

We thank Laura and David for sharing their beautiful memories and photographs with us for everyone to see! What a charming location for a wedding - on the porch of a good friend!

Outdoor Wedding Tips

Alternative Plans

Have a back-up plan. It's always a good idea to plan you wedding near a facility that can handle the same amount of people attending. A porch wedding is ideal as everyone can slip inside in case it rains. Tents can be also be used but make sure they are sturdy enough to withstand moderate winds. Place tents strategically so as to allow water to run out of the tent - not into it!

Plan for Comfort

Have large outdoor fans available to keep air moving and your guests comfortable. Provide cover from the sun. Have plenty of water, iced tea, and other cold drinks available. If outdoors in colder weather have portable heaters and lap blankets available.
