1. Not all farms have a stunning backdrop for the perfect wedding.
2. Some just don’t have the location or views you’d like.
3. Or a gorgeous stone-built farmhouse.
4. Of course, you have to navigate country lanes to get to many rural venues.
5. And perhaps get married in a barn.
6. A BARN!
7. What can you do with a barn?
8. Some rural wedding venues claim to have lovely accommodation.
9. But are the glamping yurts, stables and other accommodation as nice as they say?
10. They may look okay on the outside.
11. What about inside?
12. Do they really have all the conveniences of home?
13. With real beds ready to sleep in, power, light, heating and free Wi-Fi?
14. What are the chances the bride will have her own private boudoir to get ready?
15. Guests may have to sit on hay bales.
16. There’s no guarantee the bridal suite will be lovely.
17. No guarantee at all.
18. Then, of course, you might run into a pig.
19. Or two.
20. Pigs are known for hogging the limelight during wedding pics.
21. But pigs aren’t the only animals you may meet at a rural wedding venue.
22. You might find horses hanging around in the pasture.
23. Or wandering down to the stream.
24. If you don’t like animals it could be challenging.
25. Because you’re almost certain to have some drop in during your wedding.
26. And you can expect wildlife at a rural wedding venue, too.
27. Of all kinds.
28. You and your guests may need to dine al fresco.
29. Really. Outside.
30. Then you have to take in the sunset.
31. Whether you like it or not.
32. And don’t forget those views you have to look at.
33. Can you be sure it’s as lovely as it seems?
