The summer’s here and we’re celebrating all things outdoors with a look into al fresco wedding days. Blessed with some of the UK’s most beautiful countryside here in Sussex, local wedding venues offer some truly wonderful green settings for you to make the most of. Although staring at the totally blank canvas of an empty marquee or field may be slightly overwhelming at first, arm yourself with inspiration aplenty and you’ll soon be able to build the open-air day of your dreams. So, we asked the county’s suppliers from all areas of wedding expertise to lend us their exciting ideas with top tips to get you started out on the right foot.

“Use your colour scheme and fabrics to reflect the season and nature around you. Incorporate it into statement decoration pieces like balloon structures and arches which make great focal points.” – Chloe Potter, Co-ordination Event Hire

“Couples are often concerned about keeping guests entertained during that tricky period between ceremony and the all-important food. Outdoor games are very popular and entertain young and old alike.” – Sally Gallis, Luna And The Lane
“Some parts of an outside venue will have a license for a legal marriage, but if you opt for a celebrant-led ceremony you’ll have a mind-blowing choice of places to tie the knot – underneath your favourite tree, by a lake, at a theme park, or on the beach to name just a few.” – Merie Brown, Orange Rose Ceremonies

“A chill out space is a fab addition and allows for a bit of downtime to chat and unwind. Think blankets and cushions, hay bales around a firepit, or plush sofas and side tables.” – Sally Gallis, Luna And The Lane “Consider incorporating your surroundings into your styling and don’t be afraid to go big and bold.” – Sara Ellis, To Have and To Hire Events

“Trestle tables and wooden furniture work great in the outdoors, lending a natural feel to the environment. Also, think carefully about lighting such as fairylights and festoon lighting.” – Chloe Potter, Co-ordination Event Hire
