Outdoor wedding receptions offer greater
flexibility for you and your guests, when it
comes to finding choice locations. However, they
can present some added challenges, because you
are outside.

1. Discuss what electrical needs your DJ will
require.
Many outdoor locations have access to electricity
and just requires running long extension cords.

Other more remote areas may not have this type of
access, so you will need to ask the vendor if
they supply generators or if you need to rent
them to ensure you have plenty of power to
accommodate all of your electrical needs, not
just for your DJ, but also any lighting.

2. Plan for rain and hope for sunshine!
Everyone, who plans an outdoor wedding desires
perfect weather on their special day.
Unfortunately, predicting if it will be sunny,
cloudy, or rainy on your wedding day, is
difficult to do,

considering the actual date is several months or
longer away. Consider renting huge party tents
with side flaps, or arrange for an indoor
location to move the reception to in the event of
rain.

3. Provide your DJ with a covered outdoor area.
Even if you decide to risk not getting a party
tent, it is still highly recommended to have a
covered area where you DJ can set up their
equipment and perform.

Plus the added shade will help protect their
equipment and keep them cool on those warmer
summer days!

4. Rent a portable dance floor.
Unless you are using an outdoor area that already
has sufficient space for a dance area on a firm
surface, you will want to consider having one set
up for your reception.

Portable dance floors can be set up under party
tents, too, so even if it rains your guests can
still dance the night away.

5. Have the DJ and dance floor near the reception
area.
If you place the DJ and dance floor in a separate
tent or far away from the main reception area,
your guests are not going to be as inclined to
dance and have fun.

A great option is to have the DJ and dance floor
near the area where guests enter the reception
area, so they can play music as your guests
arrive and keep them entertained until dinner is
served.
