How to Keep Your Guests Warm and Dancing at an Outdoor Fall Wedding

Outdoor fall weddings in Missouri can be breathtakingly beautiful, but they also come with the challenge of keeping your guests comfortable as temperatures drop. As experienced wedding DJs in Columbia and St. Louis, we've got some tried-and-true tips to keep your guests warm and on the dance floor:


Start with a Warm Welcome

  • Greet guests with warm apple cider or hot cocoa

  • Provide cozy blankets or pashminas as favors


Create Warm Spaces

  • Rent patio heaters or fire pits for outdoor areas

  • Set up a tent with sidewalls to block wind


Time it Right

  • Schedule dancing for when guests need to warm up

  • Plan high-energy activities for cooler parts of the day


Craft a Hot Drink Menu

  • Offer a selection of warm cocktails like spiked cider or Irish coffee

  • Have a hot chocolate bar with various toppings


Choose the Right Music

  • Start with upbeat songs to get people moving

  • Mix in some line dances or group dances to keep energy high


Encourage Movement

  • Organize fun games or activities between dance sets

  • Consider a dance lesson segment to get everyone involved


Create a Cozy Atmosphere

  • Use warm lighting like string lights or candles

  • Incorporate fall decor to enhance the seasonal mood


Plan for All Weather

  • Have a backup indoor location just in case

  • Provide clear instructions to guests about appropriate attire


As your DJs, we'll work closely with you to create a music playlist and schedule that keeps your guests engaged and moving throughout the night. With the right planning and atmosphere, your outdoor fall wedding can be a warm, memorable celebration for all!
