Every couple, when preparing for the most important day in their family life, tries to look original. Not long ago, on-site marriage registrations came into fashion, which allow you to diversify the standard plan of any wedding - ransom, painting, photo shoot and restaurant.
Decoration idea
Painting in the registry office is one thing, but an outdoor event is completely different.
For this purpose, playgrounds, beaches, and gardens are decorated. The main attribute for newlyweds is an arch or gazebo .
Decorating a gazebo for a wedding can be very diverse. Balloons, flowers, various fabrics, curtains and other decorative elements are often used.
In this publication, we have collected the most interesting and original approaches to decorating a wedding gazebo.
Decoration of a wedding gazebo. Test of imagination and taste
How to decorate a gazebo for a wedding is a matter of personal preference and financial capabilities. Of course, it is always more convenient to use the services of professional decorators. After all, it is enough to choose something acceptable from the proposed design options.
If you don’t find a suitable design in the catalog, just try to explain the style of your wedding on your fingers so that the designer can understand the idea and think through an individual decor.
The main requirement is that the design of the gazebo should not stand out from the main leitmotif . But one acceptable option still exists - contrasting colors. For example, if the wedding is planned in red colors, then the combination of red and green in the decor of the gazebo will look very bright and original.

Small for the ceremony or large for everyone?
The gazebo can accommodate all the guests of the celebration, tables, dance floor and musicians. Or maybe a very small one, in which the main wedding ritual . The approach to decor in this case is also different.
A small gazebo should be ideal for the newlyweds and highlight their outfits. All the attention of the guests is focused on this building. After all, there the heroes of the occasion pronounce their vows and become legal spouses.
Delicate shades in decorating a gazebo
A large gazebo, first of all, should be comfortable. Attach most heavy and bulky decorative elements outside the room. Leave floral and small decorative decorations inside so as not to clutter the dance floor space.
Pay attention to table decor. Beautiful baskets with flowers, ikebana, garlands, original lamps on and above the tables - all this will create a charming atmosphere of the wedding celebration.

Delicate and familiar white color in fabric canopies, flowers, garlands is suitable for any classic wedding. But if the sensuality of white is already boring, and there is no desire to experiment much with color, give preference to pastel beige, blue or gray tones.
This is usually appropriate when surrounded by vibrant nature with lush greenery, flowering trees and rainbow flower beds
If the celebration is held, for example, on the beach, where there is dull sand all around, then it is better to decorate the gazebo in bright colors . Pink, raspberry, lilac or blue - whatever the bride and groom like.

You can decorate the gazebo in a specific style - oriental, African, American country or rock decor.
wood, rattan or stone - are always popular . But live climbing flowers and shrubs (roses, clematis, campis or wisteria) are the best natural decoration for wedding gazebos, which do not even require additional elements.

Country style wedding
Conventionally, weddings in a rustic style are divided into two types according to their design:
- winter,
summer
Winter
They are carried out starting in late autumn, when the snow falls, until it melts, usually in early spring. A country wedding in winter has a bias toward Russian themes, but don’t overdo it, otherwise you’ll go completely away from the chosen direction. It is better to buy a bride's dress white and from materials that do not have artificial shine, and, of course, refuse to decorate with sequins and rhinestones. But delicate lace can be very useful. An accessory such as a fur muff is also suitable. In footwear, it is necessary to exclude stilettos, pumps and other “catwalk” shoes. If you still want a higher rise, then take a closer look at shoes with a glass heel. But because It will be cool, boots in some unusual design, for example, cowboy boots, will be more suitable.
The groom's outfit for a rustic-style wedding should be made of thick fabric: wool, corduroy, like the models in the photo. The color scheme is natural, warm, natural: brown, dark green, graphite. You can wear deserts or brogues on your feet.
The design depends on the venue: you can find a cafe with a “farmhouse” type interior and complement it with bouquets of dried flowers and banners made of linen flags. If this is not possible, and you want to completely recreate the atmosphere of a rural holiday, then look into your grandmother’s closet: wooden cart wheels, baskets and baskets made of wicker, an old button accordion, antique tablecloths. And also add fur decorations, for example, a fox tail and decor with Khokhloma elements - this will bring a Russian twist to the celebration. Colors and decoration materials: wood and bark, cones and spruce branches, wheat ears and some bright red and yellow accents. But just a little, otherwise it will turn into an old Russian wedding, and that’s a completely different story.
Decorate holiday tables with wooden boxes or bottles wrapped in twine. And place bouquets with fir branches and cones in them. And, of course, not a single typical wedding in the village is complete without a samovar and a bunch of bagels.
Country wedding in summer
The ideal time to recreate a rustic wedding style is summer, or more precisely, the period from May to September.
The bride's outfit is a light, loose, delicate and sophisticated dress with a flowing skirt. Materials can be used such as linen, guipure, shirt cotton, chiffon. It should resemble a summer sundress and emphasize the romantic image of the bride, like a rustic wedding dress. It will be perfectly complemented by a wreath of simple flowers and greenery, as well as ballet flats or sandals.
The bride's bouquet should not have any regular shape or symmetry: remember how you picked flowers in the meadow as a child - this is what your composition should be. Delphiniums, lavender, peonies, daisies, asters, matthiola are suitable. For decoration, use branches of greenery, as well as rye or wheat ears.
The groom's look is an echo of the 70s and 80s: a loose shirt with the top button undone and suspenders. Suitable shoes are oxfords or even top-siders. You can complement the suit with a vest.
The most powerful help in decorating and creating a rural style will be organizing a wedding in the fresh air, under the canopy of trees. Complement the natural surroundings with decorative elements: antique candlesticks, embroidered napkins, jars of jam, small (or large) sheaves of hay, wooden furniture and trays made from tree trunks - and this is just a small part of what you can come up with to support the chosen theme.
A festive feast for a wedding in a rustic style is especially abundant in the summer, because... It's the season of vegetables and berries. It is better to organize a buffet: snacks and drinks are freely available, and only hot dishes are served at the tables. At buffet tables, in addition to standard snacks, you can add stylized ones: caramel apples, baked pies, berry jam, corn, fresh bread, etc.
A photo zone at a rustic-style wedding is a space for inspiration and creativity. It can be created from old doorways, a fence decorated with fresh flowers and lace curtains. Place two chairs and surround them with wooden boxes, signs, haystacks, branches and tree stumps, add a few colorful elements and you'll get some lovely rustic wedding photos.
A village wedding is a good greeting from the outback and a great idea for a summer wedding. There is no strict dress code for such a holiday, so both the newlyweds and guests will be comfortable. And the pure natural aromas of wood, hay, fruit or pine will create a magical atmosphere. The website svadebka.ws always selects only the best and most current ideas for your celebration.
Arch – shelter and decoration of the main ceremony
A wedding arch is the same necessary decor as a small gazebo if an outdoor ceremony is planned. She highlights a place that will attract the attention of all invitees. Under the flower vault, the newlyweds will become legal husband and wife. Therefore, this building creates the main mood of the wedding.
To decorate a wedding arch, you can use any available decoration elements - branches, flowers, fabric, paper or wicker elements
It can be heavy, bulky and stand permanently in the garden or in a restaurant, or it can be light, compact and easily installed in any chosen place - on the seashore or river, in a park or in the courtyard of a house.

If we continue the theme of living and natural wedding ceremony decorations, it is worth noting the natural arches made of bushes and trees. A wedding ceremony under the green vault of a beautiful plant, decorated with ribbons or small lanterns, will turn a strict and exciting ritual into a fairy tale for the bride and groom. Pay attention to this unusual, but certainly stunning type of “arch” if you want to decorate a wedding in a country, rustic or boho style.

General principles
First of all, you should choose high-quality decorative elements that are resistant to mechanical stress and bad weather. The support posts of the structure can be decorated with colored ribbons and live plants in flower pots. In a summer gazebo, covered with an awning, there will definitely be space for an arch of blooming roses.
Combined bouquets of roses, sunflowers and daisies will create a festive mood. If you want to decorate window openings with your own hands, do not forget about the rules for combining cold and hot palettes. For example, white objects stand out against the background of blue and yellow objects. It is better to combine pink with olive and chocolate, and invigorating orange with lilac or violet.
In 80% of cases, the choice of decorations depends on the style of the interior.
For example, French Provence means old furniture with a patina, a festive white palette, patterned tablecloths and pictures with chipboards.
It's easiest for loft supporters. The main attributes of this style are raw surfaces and dark colors, so the standard inscription “Happy Birthday!” will be quite enough.
Chalet-style decor is unthinkable without hunting trophies, field forget-me-nots and wood crafts.
When preparing for the celebration, you do not need to use:
- Decorations made from plain paper. In windy weather they quickly become unusable.
- Artificial flowers can be used all year round, but since they absorb positive energy, this should not be done.
- Poisonous plants, especially hydrangea, jasmine, crocuses and callas.
- Photos that evoke unpleasant memories.
- Fabrics made from cheap materials. Such products are not able to protect against heat and insects, and their poor texture further highlights defects in walls and other surfaces.
Veranda for weddings - the mood of celebration
If the wedding is planned for the warm season, but the bride and groom are afraid of sudden bad weather, then the veranda of a restaurant or country hotel complex will be an ideal solution to this issue.
When choosing such a room, pay attention to the view it offers: city lights, river, seashore, forest or garden
Think about what is most suitable for the style of the celebration.
Hold a modern, bright, dynamic wedding on the veranda of a restaurant on the roof of a high building. Add more garlands, lanterns and other lighting elements to decorate the room to enhance the effect of the city rhythm on the cycle of entertainment and dancing.
Wedding party on the rooftop veranda - a cool celebration for the bride and groom
Organize a calm and romantic wedding on the veranda of a restaurant somewhere far outside the city. The tranquility of the pond and the rustling of leaves will smooth out the nervousness and excitement before the celebration. In nature, pay attention to the decor with live fire - candles, a fireplace or an open hearth will create a cozy atmosphere in the evening. Ribbons, balloons and paper garlands will add lightness and ease to the atmosphere.
Entertaining guests
The key to the successful organization of any holiday, be it a banquet for an anniversary or a wedding, is not only delicious treats, but also the good mood of satisfied guests. And so that everyone doesn’t get bored, I have collected for you the top 10 best scenarios for outdoor fun.
Games and competitions
- Prepare board games “Elias”, “Crocodile”, “Activity”, “Uno”, “Mafia”, this format of entertainment will help unite and amuse even the most serious guests.
- At a village wedding, you can organize a log sawing competition. The winners receive a wooden medal. Just don’t mention it in advance, in case one of the savvy guests brings a “Friendship” saw with them.
- Freedom in nature encourages active play. Offer to play an exciting game of “Zarnitsa”, an impromptu “Town” or bowling, come up with a quest to find a treasure trove of tasty treats.
- You can invite your guests to plant a tree to commemorate your day. And for a chintz wedding a year later, gather in the same place and look at the grown seedlings.
- When choosing a country complex, see if they have tennis tables, volleyball or football courts. If you sit too long, you can always warm up at sports competitions.
Relaxation and music at a wedding
- If there is a body of water near the place of celebration, then as a change you can go fishing, by the way, then you can cook a delicious fish soup. At tourist centers you can often rent boats and catamarans for sailing.
- Are you planning to barbecue? Why not organize a competition for the most delicious kebab. Just take care of the meat, vegetables and skewers in advance. Everyone will be treated to dishes prepared by others, and the winner can be chosen by general vote. Although, in my opinion, everyone will benefit!
- For a home-style celebration, invite your loved ones to prepare short, interesting stories from the lives of the newlyweds. An evening of memories of your acquaintance, engagement, vacation together, funny incidents will create a cozy and friendly atmosphere.
- Where would we be without music? Perhaps one of the guests plays the guitar or accordion. Or you can hand out instruments from improvised items to the guests and improvise with humorous ditties of congratulations to the newlyweds. Cheerful songs and romantic melodies will add real flavor to your wedding day.
- In the evening, in addition to dancing to your favorite music from acoustic speakers, you can build a screen from an ordinary sheet to watch a movie about your acquaintance and a romantic comedy.
An open-air cinema, soft mattresses and pillows, warm blankets just in case and a table with buffet snacks are a great idea for completing a small, cozy outdoor wedding.

How to decorate a gazebo with your own hands for a wedding?
Of course, flower arrangements, large fabric elements and other bulky decor are best left to the work of professionals .
But it’s always interesting to do small details yourself in order to bring a bit of your own work and soul into the wedding celebration
Candles in hand-made candlestick jars look charming and gentle on a festive evening:
- Wrap a piece of wire around the neck of the jar and make a neat loop so that the jar can be hung on a tree branch or in any other convenient place.
- Pour sand, stones or other loose and solid materials into the jar (choose as non-flammable as possible).
- Carefully place the candle in the jar and sprinkle with sand or stones for stability.

Before work, the jar can be beautifully painted and decorated with stencil designs.
Another way to dilute the strict decor and bring a bit of homeliness and comfort to the celebration is to add words of love, laid out from letters sewn from fabric. Choose bright colors. Add delicate lace, beads, and other elements, and an excellent wedding decoration is ready. Place the letters in a prominent place in the gazebo and they will attract the attention of many guests. Especially those who are younger. Large letters made of cardboard, tightly wrapped with bright yarn, look very warm and interesting. Let it be the first letters of the names of the bride and groom or any good wish to the newlyweds.

Recommendations for placement
The photo zone can be placed in different places. But usually it is decorated a little away from the place of the main celebration (so that the tables are not in the frame). Guests wishing to take a break from the hectic fun will relax and take plenty of photographs.
A popular solution for placing photolocation, especially in the warm season, is on a street area near trees, a pond, against a backdrop of natural greenery. If the wedding venue allows you to organize this option, then take advantage of this opportunity. During the cold season, you can create a special space for photos right in the banquet hall.
You can come up with ideas for a photo zone yourself or use the advice of experts. If you decide to make your wedding a photo shoot space, follow some rules.
- All guests should be comfortable: those taking pictures should not disturb the main crowd, and vice versa.
- Make sure that the photo zone does not interfere with the main fun and does not block the routes of the guests.
- Provide a comfortable workplace for the photographer as well. Try to set up a photo area on a spacious area so that guests do not crowd and create queues.
- If the photo zone is located on the street away from the banquet hall, let guests know about its location. Place signs and additionally make an announcement about the operation of a special site.
Wedding rotunda. Do you need decor?
Usually, decorating a rotunda for wedding ceremonies is the work of those who rent out this rotunda. But if, according to the conditions, the decor remains yours, since the design requires special elements , first you should still take a closer look at the chosen place.
Some rotundas are works of art in themselves and do not require additional decorations
Especially if they offer views of the sea, lake and other stunning places. Extra details will only distract guests from the newlyweds and from the surrounding beauty. You can add a few neat elements - a flower garland, fabric decor or balloons. But try not to complicate the overall picture.
Wedding rotunda on the seashore - a minimum of decorations and a maximum of emotions
The decor of a wedding gazebo, arch, veranda or rotunda also depends on the courage and unconventional thinking of the newlyweds. If cyclists decide to cover their wedding rotunda with various parts from old bikes, who will criticize this decision? If the bride and groom, for objective reasons, were unable to hold a ceremony on the seashore, who is stopping them from filling the floor of the gazebo with sand, putting up a couple of aquariums and imagining themselves on the Red Sea coast? Flowers, ribbons and balls are wonderful classics, appropriate for any traditional celebration. Don’t be afraid to come up with a non-traditional wedding and non-traditional wedding decorations yourself. Fantasize easily!
Summary
As you have seen, decorating a wedding hall in the summer can be done in different ways. You should think about your decor style long before your planned celebration. After all, summer is a hot time. And if you intend to resort to the services of specialists - a wedding decorator and florist - then you need to negotiate with them several months in advance. Good professionals plan their schedule six months in advance.
Use all the beauty of summer nature: hold weddings outside, take pictures against the backdrop of lush greenery and flowers, use fruits and flowers in decoration, because now everything natural and natural is so fashionable. Do not doubt that with a proper, responsible approach to decorating the banquet venue, guests will remember your holiday for a long time and will retain only good, pleasant memories about it.

What is important to consider?
- It's hot . It will be difficult to withstand the summer heat in a closed tent, so it is better to take care of the air conditioning.
- Evening coolness . It gets quite cold in the evening. At this time, the heating system inside will not be superfluous at all.
- Rain and wind . Choose only high-quality tents with a durable awning. Some designs require additional side curtains. They will be very relevant when it rains.
- Insects . You can use repellents or choose a place where insects are not found at all. Before taking any action yourself, check with your landlord or organizer to see if they have special insect traps installed in your tent.
- Electricity . It is better to choose sites on the territory of country clubs, then there will be no problems. Otherwise, you need to take a generator with you, since there will simply be nowhere to connect to electricity.
- Toilets are necessary, but they should not attract attention or spoil the overall appearance of the celebration area. It is good if the tent is located next to a room where there is a toilet. Ask the organizers if there are restrooms on site and in what condition they are. Toilets should be clean, comfortable and modern.
