Are you tired of traditional weddings full of clichés? Do you want your special day to be unique? The recipe for a successful "dream wedding" is a complex one.
The first, and perhaps most important question is, where will the event take place? Every area has well-known locations for weddings: event halls, restaurants, cultural centers. They usually offer 5-6 fixed menus and standard decor, making weddings feel uniform. You can hire a talented decorator, but even they are somewhat "tied down." They can enhance the look of the venue to an acceptable level, but can’t perform miracles. Popular venues are generally booked years in advance. Don’t want to wait that long? The best solution might be to host your wedding outdoors, under an event tent in nature. However, this is not the right choice for everyone. How will you know if it's suitable for you? If your answer to the following points is "yes," then the answer is clear: contact us as soon as possible to schedule a personal consultation.
1. You don’t like traditional ballroom weddings
If you've read this far, your answer is likely a big YES. You should know that ballroom weddings can be a cheaper option, especially if you're planning a large wedding. In addition to renting the tent and event furniture, you’ll also need to rent a suitable outdoor venue. If you expect many guests who will need accommodation, an ideal solution would be to set up the African tent in the courtyard of a guesthouse or campsite. Many guests are willing to camp so they can enjoy the festivities without worry. A restaurant with a large garden could also be a viable option for an outdoor wedding with a beautiful African tent. This way, you wouldn’t need to hire catering services. In both of these cases, the cost of renting the venue could be reduced to zero. Another cost-effective option is to hire a chef to cook on-site. A menu of carefully prepared dishes grilled or cooked in a cauldron can be of exceptional quality.
2. You dream of a personalized wedding
No two outdoor weddings are ever the same. Even if the location is the same, there are endless possibilities for setting up African tents or classic aluminum-frame ones. Not to mention the unique atmosphere nature provides in different seasons. An early summer outdoor wedding and an autumn one will be completely different, with entirely different colors. It’s no wonder that outdoor ceremonies and weddings with rented tents are becoming increasingly popular. The ideal time for a party under an African tent outdoors is mid-summer, during the hot season. Our stretch tents, made with high-quality UV-protective fabric, provide deep shade similar to that of walnut tree leaves. If the event tent is made from lower-quality material, prepare for the heat. If you’re planning an outdoor wedding, don’t skimp on the quality of the rented African tent.
3. It’s important that children feel good
More and more often, couples already have children at the time of marriage, or they bring them from a previous relationship. If this applies to you, you’ll surely be thinking about the little ones. At a crowded indoor wedding, children would have to stay disciplined and restrained throughout the event. However, with an outdoor wedding under a rented tent, children can run around and have fun freely. They could even have a small designated play area. This way, the outdoor wedding becomes much more enjoyable for adults too, doesn’t it?
4. You love nature
If you enjoy hiking, outdoor sports in any weather, you probably wouldn’t feel comfortable in elegant attire at your own wedding. An outdoor ceremony in the middle of the forest might suit you better. Don’t get me wrong, an outdoor wedding can be just as elegant as a ballroom one. If the rented African tent doesn’t have a full floor installed, it’s a good idea to inform your guests in advance. In such cases, narrow high heels are uncomfortable, as they can easily sink into the ground. The cost of renting a floor can be comparable to the price per square meter for renting the African tent itself. Therefore, it’s worth looking for a location with a small terrace or paved area where guests can dance comfortably. But even on bare ground, people can dance joyfully!
The positive effects of nature will certainly be felt at an outdoor wedding. It helps you live each moment with joy. Let nature be your church!
