Spring in Ohio can be a beautiful time to plan an outdoor wedding. With the warmer weather, budding flowers, and longer days, there's no doubt that it can create a romantic and memorable setting for your big day. However, outdoor spring weddings in Ohio can also come with their own set of challenges. Here are some dos and don'ts to help you plan a successful outdoor spring wedding in Ohio.

Yesterday’s wedding was absolutely gorgeous. It rained all morning, but when it was time to take photos outside of the University of Dayton chapel where Magge & Joe planned to get married, the rain magically stopped. After their church wedding ceremony, we headed to Riverscape Metropark in downtown Dayton to get some photos of the bride & groom. Then the newlyweds and their guests enjoyed a beautiful reception at The Steam Plant.

Yesterday’s wedding at The Transept in Cincinnati was so much fun. The day started off chilly with a little snow, even though it’s already the end of March. Ohio weather can be unpredictable. The bride & groom embraced the day, venturing outside at Washington Park for some portraits with their bridal party.

Saturday was pure wedding magic. Christina & Ryan had an ethereal garden wedding in Loveland, Ohio. Every detail came together to create an other-worldly vibe. From Christina’s bridal headpiece to the ornate cake cutting utensils- this wedding was romantic and atmospheric. Guests enjoyed an outdoor dinner reception while the sun set over the garden at The Marmalade Lily. The resident wedding cat even came out to say hello to guests.

This past weekend we photographed the most gorgeous wedding at Steam Plant Dayton. K & R began their day downtown, getting ready in the suites at their reception venue. They chose to have a first look together outside in the courtyard before the ceremony. After their first look, we stopped by Hills & Dales MetroPark for a few photos before the ceremony.
