# 51 Ideas for Your Outdoor Wedding ...

Although the result seems simplistic compared to a church/venue wedding, there are definitely some challenges in planning an outdoor wedding. Churches and venues come with seating for example! Mother Nature is magical but readymade wedding seating is not among her incredible creations. Then of course, there's the weather! Control over that? Fat chance! Now you're probably thinking I'm trying to put you off outdoor weddings. Far from it. I think they are wonderful and I've got tons of ideas here to show that you can overcome the challenges and have a magical day to remember. Ideas for warm and cold weather weddings included.
