Hi everyone! We are looking at a September 8, 2013 wedding date and we really want to have our ceremony outside. The problem is, the venue charges an additional $350 for chair setup (in addition to the $300 just for a 45 minute ceremony). The coordinator told me I can avoid the $350 fee by setting up my own chairs, but isn't a rental company going to cost me more money?!? We are on a very tight budget, and I want a nice outdoor ceremony but is it ok to ask guests to stand for a short ceremony? Otherwise I suppose I will have to bite the bullet and move the ceremony indoors...
Help appreciated!!
