I say why not!!! I know that sounds like a crazy idea since we are in Central Texas which means it could be 70 degrees one day and 40 degrees the next. But just because it is cold though doesn't mean you have to forgo the beauty of an outdoor venue. One advantage is the cost of the venue rental fee will definitely be cheaper allowing you more flexibility with your budget. You may have to rent heaters to help give warm pockets but just think about how wonderfully romantic a winter wedding can be. You could provide your guest an assortment of quilts to cover up if they get too cold. It's the perfect opportunity to serve some hot apple cider and hot chocolate, spiked or not. It can be a fabulously cozy affair.
Okay so now you are probably wondering...But won't everything be brown and lifeless in December? NOT AT ALL!!! When I was at The Inn yesterday watering, I decided to take some pictures to show just what outdoors in C. Texas looks like one week before Christmas after a few freezes. It is still wonderfully beautiful.
And in case you are also wondering, there is no sprinkler system & no maintenance crew. We have had no real measurable rain since September. What you see is due to the right plants in the right place, micro climates & one woman's love for her venue and what it can provide others.
