Wedding in Poland by Dorota Nowakowska Wedding Planner: December 2019

Planning a church wedding in Poland? I have decorations advice for you today. I hope it will be helpful. The church is undoubtedly the most traditional wedding venue in Poland and a wonderful sanctuary of love. There are very different from each other, and are literally hundreds of years apart. For this reason, the decor of the church for the wedding must be properly tailored to the church of your choice.

Sometimes it is enough to ensure the right floristic setting. It also happens that there is a possibility of using much more elegant wedding decorations that will add splendor to your special day.

The very first step to be done before even thinking about decorating the church is the a discussion with the responsible priest. Based on the results of such conversation you will know at the outset what is allowed in the matter of decorating the church for the wedding, what elements of the church equipment can be changed or relocated, whether the arrangement of the benches can be changed and so on. If your wedding budget is modest, it is worth asking about other couples getting married on the same day and decide to decorate the church together, which will certainly reduce wedding expenses related to decorating the church.

For beautiful wedding decoration of the church use elements such as candles, flowers, lanterns, beautiful rugs, petals of fresh flowers or ribbons. Below there are some examples of beautiful church wedding decorations:

Outdoor wedding in Krakow - the basic information

Outdoor weddings in Poland are becoming more and more popular every year. An undoubted advantage of outdoor wedding is the fact that you do not have to comply with the long terms of the wedding ballrooms and you can organize a wedding without waiting for a free date. If you have a large, beautiful garden or other green area (as a rented venue), where you can pitch a tent, an outdoor wedding in Krakow is a great idea.

When organizing a wedding in the open air, you need to think about choosing a place that should be nice and spacious. The size of the area should depend on the number of invited guests and the size of the tent. You must reserve space for the dance floor and prepare the stage for the band. One of the most important issues is the sanitary service of the party, when organizing a wedding you have to remember about electricity, water and toilets for guests.

However, the most important aspect of organizing an outdoor wedding in Krakow is cooperation with experienced subcontractors such as a tent company (the tent should be solid and protecting against any weather changes), catering company (appropriate menu, trained staff and catering equipment), a company renting banquet furniture (chairs, tables, tablecloths etc.), a company from the sound and lighting of the tent, and a floristic studio that can work in an open space with many dimensions.

When to organize a wedding in Krakow in the open air?

For a wedding in the garden to be really successful, it should be the right weather. The perfect time to organize a party will be late spring and summer. In May, the weather can be capricious and often the nights are still cold. In June the nights are warmer and it rains less often. July is a warm month and nice for wedding under tent. The prettiest weather is usually in August, but the evenings can be cool.

Outdoor fun

There is no real wedding without dances. Therefore, you can not forget about the special wooden dance floor. Depending on the season, a partial roofing will be a good idea. Also, don't forget about the platform for the band. There is nothing more beautiful than dancing under the open sky in the candlelight and garlands and sounds of live music.

Attractions at a outdoor wedding in Krakow

A relaxation and rest area is always a great idea. Wedding reception for some guests can be a very tactile and a special place full of soft chairs and large pillows will definitely gain recognition among guests. It is an ideal place where guests will be able to calmly talk and stretch their legs. To highlight the unique atmosphere of a wedding outdoors, it is worth using mobile attractions as a mini bar, private foodtruck or vehicle with prosseco will make guests more enjoyable. Everything in an atmosphere of dances, fun and live music.

A wedding in Krakow under a tent is a very time-consuming organizational process, but in my opinion the beautiful final effect and delight of guests playing at such a wedding is absolutely worth every hour of work. I know this well because I organize such weddings in a tent every year. Scenography, atmosphere, light, sound, flowers .... something wonderful!

Here you can see one of my weddings in the Krakow area in the open air - Wedding in Krakow in the Tuscan style.
