Custom Gazebo Perfect for Outdoor Wedding

The holiday season and the dawn of a New Year always spur one of the most exciting announcements of all – engagements! Now that wedding season is finally rolling around, it’s time to start considering the possibility of an outdoor wedding ceremony and/or reception under a custom made gazebo.

There are many benefits to an outdoor gazebo wedding:

  1. The average wedding can cost upwards of $20,000 just for a few hours of festivities. You can save a bundle with a quaint but still beautiful backyard event and put the money you saved towards an extravagant honeymoon!
  2. Gazebos are very easy to personalize with the same decorations and accessories you would use in a church, ball room or other common wedding venue.
  3. A nicely decorated gazebo will serve as the focal point to a backyard, so it’s guaranteed that all eyes will be on the bride (and groom) throughout the entire ceremony.
  4. Even you choose not to use a gazebo for the actual ceremony; it’ll still serve as a comfy sitting area for guests to enjoy during intermission or the outdoor reception.
  5. After the wedding, your custom gazebo can be used for any other outdoor event or even just as a relaxing spot right outside your home!
