When the weather is amenable, outdoor events are great for parties, receptions, and more. However, there are extra factors to consider in outdoor event design. Here are a few details to keep in mind so you can ensure your guests have a fun and comfortable experience.

A Guide to Putting Together Successful Outdoor Events

1. Know the Curfew Where You're Partying

If you choose an exterior venue in proximity to a residential area, you may be subject to a curfew or noise ordinance after a certain time. Doing a bit of research during event planning ensures you and your guests remain in full compliance with the local laws and rules. If a certain venue has an earlier curfew than is preferable, you can look for an alternative venue in a more isolated area.

2. Plan for Unexpected Bad Weather

Good event design is always accompanied by a check of the weather forecast to help you choose the perfect day for the party. However, a reliable covering for guests will make a huge difference in the event of an unexpected storm front. It also ensures guests are protected from too much sun exposure. Coverings can be made from canvas, wood, or many other attractive materials, depending on your preferences. 

3.  Make Sure Guests Are Fully Accommodated

In addition to an exterior covering, make sure there is ample seating for all guests. Have guests RSVP to invitations as early as possible so you can reserve the right number of tables and chairs for your event. Consider reserving a few extras if you're allowing people to bring a plus one. It's better to have extra furniture than to have guests standing around because there aren't enough places to sit.
