Hosting an outdoor wedding, live show, or business gathering?
The beauty of an open-air venue comes with its own set of AV challenges—but with smart planning and the right rental team, your event can run flawlessly from start to finish.
1. Prepare for the Elements
Weather can change in a heartbeat. Keep your AV gear safe with waterproof speaker enclosures, weather-resistant lighting setups, and proper cable protection to ensure nothing gets damaged.
2. Don’t Forget About Power
Most outdoor spaces don’t come with easy access to electricity. Be sure your AV rental includes reliable generators and backup power solutions to keep everything running smoothly.
3. Get Smart About Sound
In outdoor settings, sound can quickly get lost or bounce unevenly. Strategically placed speakers and fine-tuned audio balancing are essential for clear, even coverage throughout the venue.
4. Match Lighting to Nature
As the sun moves, so should your lighting plan. Use soft, ambient lighting for evening affairs and create shaded areas for better visibility during the daytime.
5. Expect the Unexpected
Unpredictable weather and last-minute changes are part of the outdoor event game. Be prepared with extra gear like pop-up tents, additional cables, and backup sound equipment.
