It’s no secret that Utah’s iconic mountains and epic red rock make the state a hotspot for destination weddings. But behind the magic of those shots is a lot to consider for the big day. Couples have the daunting task of turning an outdoor location into the perfect wedding venue. Luckily, there are many companies, from event planners to rentals specialists that are there to help brides cover the basics of an outdoor destination wedding. Today, Diamond Rentals breaks down a list of outdoor wedding essentials, to make sure you don’t miss a thing on your big day!

Five Wedding Essentials:

Tents & Canopies

Let’s face it, Utah’s weather can be unpredictable at best. If you’re looking at taking advantage of those pristine sceneries, you’re going to want to have some insurance against the elements. Tents can provide a nice roof over your heads, or if you’re looking for full coverage, you can add walls as well. Weddings in the heat of summer or the dead of winter don’t have to be indoors either, as A/C and Heating units can be used to keep the entire tent a comfortable temperature.

Chairs & Tables

Each event has its own style, and furniture is the perfect way to showcase that style. Are you going for a nice, rustic, look? Some wooden crossback chairs and a farmhouse table will blend in perfectly. Or maybe you’re going for a modern look, in which case the metallic or chiavari chairs might be what you need. Diamond Event and Tent has dozens of options, so there is bound to be the perfect seating arrangement to fit your mood!

Linens

Linens offer a two-fold benefit to a wedding: they bring a huge burst of color to your reception, and they make cleanup a snap! White tablecloths are always a classic, but there is a veritable rainbow of possibilities that you can choose from! Try getting some solid-color tablecloths in your wedding colors, or you could make a bold statement with stripes and patterns. The tables are one of the biggest parts of a reception, and so it is really worth going the extra mile with them. Then when the party is done and the guests are gone, they can just be tossed in a bag and returned, which means no one has to stay late scrubbing down the tables.

Serving Equipment

Dishes can make or break the class level of a wedding dinner. You would be shocked how a little bit of color or pattern on your flatware can elevate your table settings. Try letting go of your plain, standard flatware and see exactly the difference it can make.

Flooring

No party is complete without a little room to boogie. Portable dance floors and stages are a great addition to your reception, both to keep the party going and to keep anything (or anyone) from sinking into the ground.
