Few marriage ceremony arrangements are as pleasant as the ones providing for an outdoor wedding ceremony, or possibly for marriage that is conducted entirely outside. But before tying the knot this way, there are definite pros and cons to consider.

Several reasons could speak against outdoor marriage. For instance, if you are not fan of the unexpected, you are better off with a traditional indoor wedding. The outdoors are a fickle place, and lots can go differently than expected if you hold a ceremony with a lot of guests. Do if you or your spouse doesn’t like surprises, better to avoid getting married outdoors.

Specifically, if you would consider the wedding to be ruined by a spell of bad weather, better to do everything inside. The weather can turn even in the best of seasons. The alternative, of course, is to have an indoor plan B, even if it’s just a big ceremony tent.

While a good wedding organizer can work wonders, outdoor marriage will still place extra stress on you, and will force you to make extra decisions, sometimes at the last minute. Don’t get wed outside if you would rather not have to handle this on the day of your nuptials.
