Five Grain Events was honored to have been asked by Redfin to contribute to this compilation of the best tips for having a  backyard wedding.  Our advice:

Having an experienced wedding planner involved in your backyard wedding will help to ensure you don’t forget any details along the way. Some notables are: plenty of bathroom options for guests (and not just inside your house!), collecting power and water needs from all your vendors, planning for a separate tent or area for the caterer to prepare food, making sure there is plenty of light as the sun sets, and parking places for guests. It’s also probably a good idea to invite all of your closest neighbors, as this reduces noise complaints as the party heats up. Once you have checked all the boxes you are free to enjoy your beautiful and personal celebration.
