    I prefer indoor weddings just because sometimes nature can decide to interrupt your carefully laid out plans. With that being said, I say waterfronts! Plus I think the sea and ocean is just hypnotizing with it's serenity, sound, and beauty.

    Something on the water mostly because if it’s green I’m allergic to it.

    Hence why I had so few flowers at my wedding as well

    Waterfront. Woods make me think of how many bugs would be out there.

    I love waterfront. I am not an outdoor person, even though my ceremony is outdoors. lol

    I love waterfront but I am so in love with my venue that has a waterfall and is in three rivers, ca with rivers and ebautiful greenery everywhere that I ended up choosing it over the beach. Beach is my second favorite and we will renew our vows there in 5 years privately Smiley smile

    Both can be beautiful, and we’re not doing either, but if I had to choose I think I’d pick waterfront.

    I think I would truly love to use either of the backdrops for a wedding. However, woodlands aren't highly populated in my area, so I guess I'd say waterfront.

    It all depends on the season but I always prefer water. I'm getting married indoors but right on the waterfront in DUMBO in Brooklyn, NY and it just adds so much to the feel and view. I don't think anyone really needs either, but if I had to pick I'd say waterfront.

    I love both but I’ll pick waterfront! Of course our wedding was waterfront but not a beach wedding.
