What's more magical than dining under the open sky? Alfresco dining is a summer wedding staple, allowing you and your guests to enjoy the beauty of the outdoors while indulging in delicious cuisine and plenty of celebration. Picture long tables with fresh florals, twinkling lights overhead and the gentle summer breeze as you share your first meal as a married couple. It’s intimate, relaxed and creates a dreamy atmosphere that’s hard to beat. Plus, the natural light is a photographer’s dream - your wedding photos will be glowing just like the day itself!
