Organization of a rooftop wedding: finding artists and venues

It’s possible to organize a rooftop wedding on your own, but it’s better to contact the event agency, whose specialists will select a site for you and decorate it, take care of safety and take into account all important points.

As a rule, the most difficult thing when preparing a rooftop wedding is to find a suitable place. So far, the simplest options are cafes and restaurants located at a bird's eye view.

The image of the newlyweds

There are no special requirements for the image of the groom, I want to say separately about the image of the bride. For such a celebration, she should choose a light, flowing dress with a tight-fitting silhouette, a mini dress and a dress with a train. It is best to collect hair in a bun so that they do not interfere, fluttering in the wind. To fix the hairstyle, ask the stylist to use a lot of varnish so that the neat look of the hairstyle is preserved throughout the day, the portal www.articlewedding.com advises.

Roof wedding zoning

For a comfortable stay of guests on the roof, divide the wedding space into zones:

  • A place for exit registration with an arch, chairs for guests, etc..
  • Banquet or buffet area with refreshments, including cake.
  • Photo zone and entertainment zone (it can be musicians, DJ, board games, etc.).
  • A lounge area where you can put sofas, ottomans or even sunbeds, on which guests can relax.

Reception or banquet: what to choose?

If no more than 15 guests are invited to the wedding, most of which are young people, then a buffet would be more appropriate. Guests will be able to stroll in the fresh air, feast on wedding dishes and communicate with each other at ease. Various food bars will help to diversify the standard tables with snacks: a candy bar, chocolate, cheese, tea or coffee, a bar with ice cream or lemonade - it all depends on your imagination.

If the number of guests is more than 15-20 people and allows space, you can arrange a banquet with long or round tables.
