Many brides and grooms wonder if they should have an indoor or outdoor wedding. The reason you would want a wedding venue with both spaces is to have control on your wedding day. Weather can change without a moment's notice, especially in Idaho

With a wedding venue with both spaces, you can know your wedding day will be perfect.

An indoor event space for a wedding is climate-controlled and weather-proof. You can decorate for your wedding and not worry if the wind will knock things over, or if the rain will ruin everything. Your wedding cake will be safe and not melt in the summer heat. Restrooms and electricity are included, and you know you can get away from the heat of the sun.

The issue with indoor wedding spaces is they can hardly compete with the beauty of an outdoor wedding. Nature provides a beautiful backdrop for the wedding ceremony and wedding photographs.

If you haven’t decided yet, here are some things to think about:

Indoor wedding venue and wedding reception pros and cons:

  • More control over weather issues on your wedding day
  • You can control the temperature inside the wedding venue
  • Electricity for the DJ for your wedding reception
  • Restrooms for yourself and your wedding guests
  • Kitchen facilities for the wedding caterer
  • Limited views for wedding photographs
  • Limited space for large amounts of wedding guests

Outdoor wedding venue and wedding reception pros and cons:

  • Less control over weather. You will need a weather backup plan for your wedding day
  • No control over the temperature  
  • If you want electricity for a DJ or lights you will need a generator
  • You will need bathrooms for yourself and wedding guests
  • No kitchen facilities for the wedding caterer
  • Beautiful wedding photographs in nature
  • Unlimited space for large weddings
