Create a Beautiful (and Functional!) Entry<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Welcome your guests properly by creating a beautiful and functional entry to your venue. When guests arrive, they should be able to find your event easily, check-in, place their gifts, hang their coats, and then move into the venue. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A wedding floor plan will help you see any potential traffic jams \u2013 for example, if you place the bar too near the entry, you can end up with a crowd near the front door.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also include a few thoughtful touches near the entrance, such as a greeting table with a guest book or framed photo of the couple for guests to sign. If the weather calls for it, add a coat rack or coat check nearby. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A dedicated gift table is a must-have \u2014 include a card box or small basket to collect cards. If you have assigned seating, place a table for name cards near the entrance, clearly marked and easy to find. These details make the arrival feel organized and welcoming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/04111334\/2D-3D-wedding-floor-plan.jpg\" alt=\"2D and 3D wedding floor plans\" class=\"wp-image-4823\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/04111334\/2D-3D-wedding-floor-plan.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/04111334\/2D-3D-wedding-floor-plan-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/04111334\/2D-3D-wedding-floor-plan-150x113.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Use 2D and 3D wedding floor plans to visualize and communicate the layout of your wedding venue clearly.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"movement\">3. Allow for Movement and Flow<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The ability to move around an event comfortably is key to its success. Make sure your guests flow easily between the tables and to the dance floor and bar. Use your wedding floor plan to check the distance between tables and the wall or other tables.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Think through all the ways people will move through the room. Keep in mind that wait staff needs to be able to circulate to and from the kitchen as well. Consider where guests are likely to gather and place distinct areas accordingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141926\/wedding-venue-layout.jpg\" alt=\"wedding venue layout\" class=\"wp-image-10322\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141926\/wedding-venue-layout.jpg 800w, https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141926\/wedding-venue-layout-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141926\/wedding-venue-layout-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141926\/wedding-venue-layout-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"dancefloor\">4. Locate the Dance Floor<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Use your wedding floor plan to find the perfect place for your dance floor. Many brides and grooms place the dance floor in the center of the room, particularly if the dance floor will play several roles in the celebration. Will you be throwing the bouquet from the dance floor? Will you cut the cake there? Answers to these questions can help you determine the best location for your dance floor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"721\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141939\/wedding-floor-plan-software.jpg\" alt=\"wedding floor plan software\" class=\"wp-image-10332\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141939\/wedding-floor-plan-software.jpg 721w, https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141939\/wedding-floor-plan-software-300x250.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141939\/wedding-floor-plan-software-150x125.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 721px) 100vw, 721px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Try to position the tables around the dance floor so that everyone has a good view and easy access to the floor. Also, consider the size of the dance floor \u2013 not too big so that it looks empty \u2013 but not too small so that guests can\u2019t fit. Consult a&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/americanpartyrentals.com\/resources\/dance-floor-chart\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">dance floor sizing chart<\/a>&nbsp;to determine the best size and then specify that on your wedding floor plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t<div class=\"t2-factbox wp-block-t2-factbox\" id=\"t2-factbox\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"t2-factbox__content\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"t2-factbox__blocks t2-factbox__inner-container is-layout-flow\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\n<p>\ud83d\udca1<strong>Dance floor size<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To estimate size, plan about 4.5 sq ft (0.4 m\u00b2) per dancer. For instance, if you have 100 guests and expect half to dance at once, you\u2019ll need around 225 sq ft (21 m\u00b2), roughly a 15\u2019 x 15\u2019 floor. Adjust based on your guest list and how energetic you expect the dancing to be.<\/p>\n\n\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\n<p>When choosing where to locate the DJ, in the corner is not always best. Will your DJ also be an MC for your event? If so, it may make more sense to position them close to the dance floor so that they can see the action. Also, think about loudspeaker placement to make sure not to place any of your guests where it may be too loud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/04112941\/RoomSketcher-3D-Photo-Wedding-Wedding-Venue-Table-Seating-Layout.jpg\" alt=\"RoomSketcher 3D Photo Wedding Venue Table Seating Layout\" class=\"wp-image-4834\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/04112941\/RoomSketcher-3D-Photo-Wedding-Wedding-Venue-Table-Seating-Layout.jpg 800w, https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/04112941\/RoomSketcher-3D-Photo-Wedding-Wedding-Venue-Table-Seating-Layout-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/04112941\/RoomSketcher-3D-Photo-Wedding-Wedding-Venue-Table-Seating-Layout-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/04112941\/RoomSketcher-3D-Photo-Wedding-Wedding-Venue-Table-Seating-Layout-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Arrange your seating so that everyone has a view and ease of access to the dance floor, bar and service areas.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>Place the dance floor and stage first<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The bride and groom are the center of attention \u2014 and rightfully so \u2014 but the dance floor, along with the stage for the DJ or band, is the center of the party, so prioritize its location. Once you\u2019ve determined its location, you can place tables so every guest feels part of the festivities.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"tables\">5. Consider Table Arrangements<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>How you arrange your reception tables is just as important as determining how to seat your guests. Thoughtfully locate your tables to give all your guests good visibility and access.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Decide whether you prefer a sweetheart table for two or a long head (King\u2019s) table that seats the wedding party or family. A head table often sits at one end of the room with a view of the dance floor and guests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For guest tables, consider the pros and cons of each shape: round tables encourage conversation and are classic, rectangular tables fit more people in tight spaces, and square tables give extra space for centerpieces and d\u00e9cor. You can even mix shapes for a dynamic layout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Try out different table arrangements in your floor plan tool and aim for balance and symmetry. A U-shaped setup is common, with the head table at the top and the dance floor in the center for easy access.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141930\/wedding-reception-layout.jpg\" alt=\"wedding reception layout\" class=\"wp-image-10323\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141930\/wedding-reception-layout.jpg 800w, https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141930\/wedding-reception-layout-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141930\/wedding-reception-layout-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141930\/wedding-reception-layout-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n<ul class=\"t2-link-list has-1-items has-auto-columns wp-block-t2-link-list\">\n\t<li class=\"t2-link-list-item wp-block-t2-link-list-item\">\n\t\t<a\n\t\t\thref=\"https:\/\/www.roomsketcher.com\/floor-plan-gallery\/events\/wedding-floor-plans\/\"\n\t\t\tclass=\"t2-link-list-item__link t2-link-list__icon--left\"\n\t\t\trel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\t\t>\n\t\t\t<span class=\"t2-link-list-item__icon\"><span class=\"t2-link-list-item__icon-box\"><\/span><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" height=\"24\" width=\"24\" class=\"t2-icon t2-icon-rs_external\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><path stroke=\"#007B8C\" stroke-width=\"2\" d=\"M7.59822 7.37346H16.4764M16.3764 6.37346V16.1516M16.3764 7.37346L6.12334 17.6265\" \/><\/svg><\/span>\t\t\t<div class=\"t2-link-list-item__content\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<span id=\"link-list-item-text\" class=\"t2-link-list-item__text\">\n\t\t\t\t\tExplore wedding floor plan examples\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/li>\n\t\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"guests\">6. Cater to Specific Guest Seating Needs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Do you have grandparents or other older guests? Are there small babies who may need a quiet area or a separate kids' room? Perhaps you have a guest in a wheel chair? By creating a floor plan for your wedding, you can note where you want to seat any special guests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"plan\">7. Communicate Your Plan Clearly<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A 2D wedding floor plan is a great way to make sure you have clear communication with your partner, wedding planner, the venue, and any vendors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Use your floor plan to talk through ideas with your fianc\u00e9, provide clear direction for a wedding planner, get a better quote from venue staff, and avoid misunderstandings on setup. Your wedding floor plans can include dimensions, a legend, and custom descriptions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/04113056\/RoomSketcher-2D-Floor-Plan-Wedding-Venue-Layout.jpg\" alt=\"RoomSketcher 2D Floor Plan Wedding Venue Layout\" class=\"wp-image-4837\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/04113056\/RoomSketcher-2D-Floor-Plan-Wedding-Venue-Layout.jpg 800w, https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/04113056\/RoomSketcher-2D-Floor-Plan-Wedding-Venue-Layout-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/04113056\/RoomSketcher-2D-Floor-Plan-Wedding-Venue-Layout-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/04113056\/RoomSketcher-2D-Floor-Plan-Wedding-Venue-Layout-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Locate Check-in and Gift Tables close to the entrance and the bar at an opposite corner to draw guests into the venue.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"zones\">8. Zones You Need to Consider When Laying Out Your Wedding Floor Plan<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether you\u2019re hosting your reception at a country club, hotel ballroom, banquet hall, vineyard, rustic barn, or under a tent on a family property, be sure to include the following zones in your wedding floor plan and be strategic in their placement. Doing so serves double duty: you\u2019ll be able to showcase your venue while ensuring the comfort and enjoyment of your guests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The bar<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Depending on the size of your celebration, you may want more than one bar to avoid congestion as guests queue up for refreshments. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.brides.com\/story\/how-to-plan-your-wedding-reception-layout\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Brides magazine<\/a> recommends one bar with two bartenders for every 100 guests, so if you\u2019re expecting 150 guests, plan for two bars and three bartenders. Place one bar near the dance floor to keep revelers hydrated and the other a little further away from the action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141937\/wedding-floor-plan-designer.jpg\" alt=\"wedding floor plan designer\" class=\"wp-image-10330\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141937\/wedding-floor-plan-designer.jpg 800w, https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141937\/wedding-floor-plan-designer-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141937\/wedding-floor-plan-designer-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141937\/wedding-floor-plan-designer-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If your event is large, consider setting up two or more bars in opposite corners of the room to spread out traffic. You can add a few cocktail tables nearby so guests have a place to set down drinks and chat. For cocktail-style receptions, rely mainly on high tables and bar stools with a few regular tables reserved for older guests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cocktail hour <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The party portion of the day starts with cocktail hour, a welcome invitation for guests to mingle and enjoy a signature cocktail and hors d\u2019oeuvres while the bride and groom take photos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Planning to have cocktail hour in the same space as the reception? Scatter high tables with stools around the space so guests have a place to sit or set their drinks and snacks while chatting. Add some tables for food stations, all of which can be quickly cleared away when dinner begins.

When laying out your wedding floor plan, remember that the wait staff needs to be able to circulate to and from the kitchen. Place guest tables away from kitchen doors and noisy server stations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141935\/wedding-seating-planning-tool.jpg\" alt=\"wedding seating planning tool\" class=\"wp-image-10328\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141935\/wedding-seating-planning-tool.jpg 800w, https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141935\/wedding-seating-planning-tool-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141935\/wedding-seating-planning-tool-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141935\/wedding-seating-planning-tool-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cake table <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A wedding cake is sometimes displayed on its own table. Often it takes center stage on a dessert table that\u2019s decorated with linens, greenery, and florals and offers a tempting variety of cakes and other decadent treats. Raised platters and cupcake towers add depth and dimension to an otherwise flat table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s common to place the dessert table along a side or end of the reception room so guests can serve themselves without getting in the way of fellow guests as they mingle and make their way to and from the dance floor. Consider placing a pretty backdrop on the wall behind the table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141933\/floor-plan-wedding-venue.jpg\" alt=\"floor plans for wedding venues\" class=\"wp-image-10326\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141933\/floor-plan-wedding-venue.jpg 800w, https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141933\/floor-plan-wedding-venue-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141933\/floor-plan-wedding-venue-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141933\/floor-plan-wedding-venue-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dance floor<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Brides and grooms want their guests to have fun, and a packed dance floor is a sure sign of mission accomplished, underscoring the importance of placing it in a central location. Guests may feel disconnected from the festivities if tucked in a corner or at the end of a hall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you\u2019ve decided on a location, use your wedding floor plan to position the tables so guests can enjoy the main attractions, including newlywed and wedding party entrances, toasts to the happy couple, and the first dance. The size of the dance floor is also essential: too large, and it will look empty even if many of your guests are dancing; too small, and guests won\u2019t have space to bust a move or break out a conga line!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141934\/wedding-floor-plan-template.jpg\" alt=\"wedding floor plan template with dance floor\" class=\"wp-image-10327\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141934\/wedding-floor-plan-template.jpg 800w, https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141934\/wedding-floor-plan-template-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141934\/wedding-floor-plan-template-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141934\/wedding-floor-plan-template-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bathrooms<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If hosting your reception in a typical event space, consider creating personalized signs pointing guests to the bathrooms.

When placing them on your wedding floor plan, make sure they\u2019re not in full view of guests or anywhere near food and beverages. At the same time, ensure they\u2019re not too far from the tent and that the path is well-lit and covered in the event of inclement weather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gift table\/area <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Wedding etiquette recommends guests send gifts directly to your home before the wedding day, but some guests may prefer to present their card or gift in person. When placing the gift table, it should be visible in the main event space \u2013 not the lobby or too close to an exit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Add a card box and wedding guest book. Decorate the table with signs to greet guests and personalize it with framed photos, perhaps of the bride and groom over the years or loved ones unable to attend the celebration but not forgotten. Don\u2019t forget to plan how to get the gifts home once the festivities wrap up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141932\/wedding-floor-plan-app.jpg\" alt=\"wedding floor plan app\" class=\"wp-image-10325\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141932\/wedding-floor-plan-app.jpg 800w, https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141932\/wedding-floor-plan-app-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141932\/wedding-floor-plan-app-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/wpmedia.roomsketcher.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17141932\/wedding-floor-plan-app-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"3D\">9.

Locate these close to the event tent, but out of the line of site for photos. Don\u2019t forget the WCs.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Create two versions of your wedding floor plan \u2013 one scenario for good weather and one scenario in case it rains. Having a plan for both situations will help you keep your event organized and running smoothly no matter what.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.roomsketcher.com\/blog\/virtual-staging-software\/\">Staging<\/a> an outdoor wedding can be just as labor-intensive, if not more, than holding one indoors.
