This was by far the best venue EVER!! Carol was absolutely amazing, I wouldn’t recommend anyone else! The owner has done such a great job revamping the space, yet keeping all of the unique charm. Will 110% be booking this location again for other life milestones!

We had the best experience and amazing party thanks to Victor. Victor was amazing and super helpful! He made sure we had everything set up and made the way we wanted the party to go. He helped to guide my guests where to park. The house was so gorgeous and perfect for our gathering. Will definitely be booking with again!

I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for everything that Olivier provided for us. We hosted a party for 25 people, and it was nothing short of exceptional. I want to extend my recommendation to anyone considering hosting an event at this studio.

Ryan and Sabrina were extremely accommodating from start to finish. They were flexible beyond belief and the space was perfect for our backyard wedding. Every question we asked was answered in a timely manner, and overall the host was super responsive. We are grateful to have been able to host at their home and our guests absolutely loved their experience as well. Would book again but not planning on getting married for a second time :)

We Loved our experience at the El Palmar residence. Ruben is a delight to work with and very responsive if you have any questions. His home is beautiful for intimate celebrations like ours and for photoshoots. The property feels like an italian villa, such a treasure and a gem! Highly recommend:)

We would absolutely recommend this space! It was the perfect location for our small, intimate nuptial ceremony and had everything we needed for decor. We were looking for a space that was a bit art-deco yet minimalist, and found that this space was the perfect combination! Kat was absolutely amazing, friendly and accommodating. She made sure we had all that we needed as far as decor, seating, audio and even set everything up for our special day. This was an amazing experience overall, which made for a beautiful and peaceful ceremony. I would definitely recommend this space for any event and even for smaller weddings.

Choosing this beautiful home for our weekend was just the cherry on top. The major part is the going through the renting process with Chris (the owner). He was beyond professional, kind and always willing to help with any unseen circumstances. I am so happy to have stayed at this overall “welcoming” estate. Until next time! Ana

Finding the Perfect Venue for Your Backyard Wedding

Some people dream of going all out with their wedding in a luxurious venue with fabulous decor, but not every wedding has to be extravagant. For those planning a budget event or celebration with a smaller guest list, Giggster can help you find backyard wedding venues in San Antonio, San Francisco, San Diego, and other major cities.

Backyard weddings don't necessarily need to be casual, and they don't have to be in a backyard; you could rent out an entire island for a backyard-themed event! You can host your celebration in a spectacular chateau estate or modern mansion for an elevated but homey experience, or maybe a small outdoor wedding venue with a beautiful natural backdrop.

It doesn't take a huge fancy hall or hundreds of guests to have a memorable wedding. For those looking for smaller and unique venues, our backyard and outdoor wedding ideas could spark inspiration for the perfect place to say "I do."

Giggster can match you with the best outdoor wedding venues, from Los Angeles lake houses with rustic charm to mini ranches in Joshua Tree. Browse our selection of unique, affordable, and elegant wedding venues to find the perfect location for your wedding day.

What Kind of Venue can I Rent for a Backyard Wedding?

Choosing a wedding venue is one of the first decisions you'll make when you start planning. It sets the tone and has to match your theme and colors. Giggster has 4854 outdoor wedding venues, including the options below.

Botanical Gardens – Elegant Weddings. Garden weddings allow you to take advantage of everything the great outdoors offers. The lush greenery and flowers make the perfect backdrop for photos and maximize the space's natural beauty with fairy lights and flower arrangements.

Beach Homes and Resorts – Summer Weddings. Maybe you want to exchange vows under palm trees on the beach with the waves crashing behind you. The beach is a classic choice for an outdoor wedding celebration and can be decorated with a tiki bar, string lights, and candles for day or night events.

Secluded Cottages – Intimate Weddings. If you don't want to worry about prying neighbors, have your backyard wedding at a chalet or private cottage. The large lawn will be great for the ceremony, and the cottages offer comfortable spots to mingle with loved ones.

Private Vineyards – Sophisticated Weddings. A winery is always a breath of fresh air for an outdoor wedding. The well-manicured grounds and rolling vines make them picturesque spots to enjoy dinner with a glass of wine.

Barns and Ranches – Rustic Weddings. There's a reason many couples choose barns or farmhouses for their wedding ceremony. These places have plenty of space, excellent customization potential, and a romantic charm you can't find elsewhere.

Top Features to Look for in a Backyard Wedding Venue

The perfect outdoor wedding venue exists; knowing how to spot it is a challenging task. If you consider weather, electricity, catering, and restrooms, much more goes into planning an outdoor wedding. Here is what to look for when searching for the perfect outdoor wedding venue.

Does the wedding venue provide a rain plan? Suppose your backyard wedding is not in your garden; you'll need a backup plan if it starts raining. Consider renting tents or finding an outdoor wedding venue with additional covered space or an enclosed structure where you can swiftly move the party.

Do you need a green light from the neighbors? Whether it's your backyard or a private villa, notify the neighbors. Some outdoor parties require a permit, so you must check with city officials. If the wedding is remote, familiarize yourself with the surroundings, accessibility, safety, and parking, among other things.

What amenities and facilities does the space offer? Although an outdoor wedding sounds amazing, you need to account for many details to make yours successful. For instance, you'll need electricity for the audio equipment, lighting, tables, chairs, etc. Check if the venue has access to portable bathrooms, generator capacity, and enough space to set up a tent.

Does the wedding venue offer catering services? A backyard wedding doesn't mean you have to run back and forth to the kitchen for food. To enjoy your special day the way you deserve, consider hiring chefs, caterers, and servers; look into wedding venues offering in-house catering services.

Organizing a Backyard Wedding

You hope to get married only once in your life, so you want to make everything as perfect as possible. Planning a wedding requires a lot of work; a wedding planner can help streamline the process and curate an event that suits your style. Giggster also handles most of the work, offering varied outdoor wedding venues to explore. Also, remember to include the best outdoor wedding ideas on your checklist:

Choose Your Venue and Theme – The goal is to rent an accessible venue that matches your theme. These aspects can help you pick a venue with room to accommodate all your guests.

Send Out Invites – Decide if you want a big or small wedding and narrow your list. You can include the theme on your invites so your guests can dress accordingly.

Decorate Your Venue – Now it's time to buy decorations and bring your vision to life. From lighting details to chairs and table centerpieces, lots of work goes into this step.

Find a Caterer – Most weddings include a reception meal for the guests after the ceremony is complete. Be sure to hire a caterer to help prepare and serve the food.

Backyard Wedding Expenses to Plan For

Organizing outdoor weddings involves lots of steps, and expenses add up fast. That's why most couples set a strict budget for every step of the planning process, including accounting for inclement weather.

Did you find vendors?

A wedding photographer and caterer are essential, but what about entertainment? You might want to book a live band or singer for background music during your reception, or you can just set up speakers to save money.

Can you feed everyone?

The more people you invite, the bigger the bill. Try to balance your number of guests and menu choices so you can easily afford to feed everyone. You can even set up a buffet table for small groups and let guests serve themselves.

Remember your decorations and furniture.

Your venue might come with lighting, speakers, a dance floor, and tables, but if not, you'll have to rent them yourself. Flowers, arrangements, napkins, table runners, balloons, candles, seating charts, and backdrops will also cost you extra.
