How to Plan the Perfect Outdoor Oklahoma Wedding at Still Meadows
Oklahoma offers breathtaking scenery, especially east of the metro with all our beautiful cedar trees for year round color! Outdoor weddings are a popular choice for couples in cities like Oklahoma City, Norman, Edmond, Yukon and Tulsa. At Still Meadows here in Macomb, we specialize in creating unforgettable outdoor wedding experiences, combining our property’s natural beauty with helpful event planning. Here’s how to plan the perfect outdoor wedding at our venue:
1. Choose the Right Season for Your Outdoor Wedding
What time of the year is right for you? Oklahoma offers beautiful spring blooms starting Mid to late April and vibrant fall foliage peaking in early November. This provides you with the perfect backdrop for your ceremony and photos for the majority of the year. Here at Still Meadows we have an abundance of Cedar trees that allow for a green backdrop no matter what time of the year your wedding is. Summer in Oklahoma can be hot! Summer time also has some pros, one being that there is usually big discounts offered in warmer months and you get the most green and lush landscape. With the heat, be sure to take notes of hair/makeup, making your guests comfortable and knowing what time your ceremony should be to help beat some of that heat! Stay tuned for more helpful information about our biggest tips for a summer outdoor ceremony!
2. Enhance the Natural Beauty with Simple Decor
For an outdoor ceremony, to enhance Oklahoma’s natural charm, we always like to say sometimes less is more! However, if you want florals and decor everywhere, we are not here to stop you! Things like floral arrangements or wood accents can blend seamlessly with the surroundings of your outdoor ceremony. With an outdoor ceremony it doesn’t take much to be a breathtaking space.
3. Capture Picture-Perfect Moments
At Still Meadows we have endless outdoor opportunities for you pictures before or after your ceremony. We have 2 outdoor ceremony spaces that allow you to choose the one that fits your vibe the most! In addition to the ceremony spaces themselves, we also offer unique photo opportunities like tree-lined paths, beautifully crafted flower beds and open meadows here at Still Meadows. Outdoor ceremonies also allow you to capture the Oklahoma sunsets, which we know are stunning. The sunsets create such beautiful backdrops for your wedding day.
