My wedding date is August 20th, 2011. I cannot decide between 2 reception sites. The one reception site requires it to be outside in a tent with the walls/windows. I know that this would protect me from a lot of wind and rain BUT, WI weather is unpredictable (especially in the northern areas) and I just fear that it will be a chilly, rainy, wet, thunderstorm warning kind of night. I don't want to worry about the worst but I feel like I have to plan for the worst. Will these tents do a pretty good job of keeping things dry for my guests? If it does rain, will my guests' shoes/feet be soaked even in the tent because the ground will get wet. Anyone else planning and outdoor reception? If so, how do you get past or decide on whether or not to have it in a tent or at a building? Thanks for anyone's input!
