Summer is Perfect for A Do-It-Yourself Wedding

You are over the moon about your upcoming wedding to the love of your life. You’ve decided to keep it simple and cut down on costs. A big, overblown affair isn’t your style. There is no time like summer to plan a wedding that you can put on by yourself. You and your fiancé will appreciate the occasion even more when you tailor this unforgettable moment to suit you. Turn your backyard into your venue and you’re already halfway there to a wedding that is perfect for you.

Rent Tables, Chairs, and Tents
You will want to be prepared for bad weather. After you rent your chairs and tables, look into tents as well. You may need to take cover if the rain is falling down. Recruit friends and family to help you with set up. Check out party supply stores and discount stores for paper products. There is no reason to spend a fortune. You can still have attractive decorations without breaking the bank.

Plan Your Menu
You have several options when it comes to food. You can cater your own affair or you can supply the food. If you opt to do it yourself, pool your resources. Talk with those who are close to you and ask them to bring a dish. Prepare and freeze foods ahead of time. Make it as easy as possible on yourself. You want to be able to enjoy this day and not worry about everyone having enough to eat. If you can’t afford to hire a caterer, you could ask family members to be in charge of refilling dishes and bringing out more options once the wedding is underway.

Set Up a Dessert Bar
Instead of cake, consider individual servings for dessert. Pudding cups, cupcakes, and gelato are always popular. You’ll discover a comprehensive selection of ice cream spoons and more at Gelato Products. When the temperature starts to rise in the summer, you will want to give your guests something cool and refreshing. A punch bowl, fruit salad, and smoothies will keep everyone happy. You can rent a snow cone machine for a touch of fun. Put someone in charge of serving your cold treats and enjoy yourself. It will give you plenty of time to celebrate the moment you have been waiting for all of your life.
