Outdoor ceremony! That's what we're doing. People may be warm but only for the 30 or so minutes of the ceremony and then they'll have plenty of a/c while they dance and party!

I think an outside ceremony is romantic and will probably not last more than 1-1/2 hours...so I vote for outside ceremony...but for your dancing and food during the summer, I choose a reception indoors because of the heat, bugs, etc.

I’d rather have my ceremony outdoors because I don’t want to worry about flies getting into the food at reception

Outdoor ceremony! I love the natural glow I’ve seen from couples in outdoor ceremonies.

Outdoor ceremony. It's just easier to manage than the reception.

Have the ceremony outdoors and eat, drink, and dance indoors with the a/c going!

Ceremony! Bugs get really bad here, so I'd rather not deal with that around the food.

Ceremony for sure. I want a Fall wedding and, while an outdoor reception sounds beautiful, I'm more worried about rain and being cold.

I would do my ceremony outside because that is what we chose to do for our wedding before the date was set.
