Outdoor ceremony worries

Where did you ladies get ready or where do you plan to get ready for your outdoor ceremony? We plan to marry on the Blue Bridge downtown GR, but I'm not sure where I should get ready. Also... how do I keep myself hidden from the groom until it's time to make my grand entrance? Any tips?

Re: Outdoor ceremony worries

  • We are having an outdoor ceremony as well (Spring Grove Park, Hudsonville) and we are getting ready at someone's home nearby. We had also thought about getting ready at the hotel we are staying in the night before. If you have relatives or close friends who live nearby that would be a great option!!

    Some friends of mine had the groom wear a tie over his eyes until the bride was ready, or a blindfold would work too. He could also stand with his back to the direction you are facing & the minister could tell him when to turn. Lots of options!
