    Ladies,

     

    I am just about to book a public park for my ceremony because it is very budget-friendly and beautiful.  However, I am having a hard time figuring out how to do the "big reveal".  I don't know if that is what everyone calls it, but for me the "big reveal" is when the bridal party and the bride are revealed to the guests, groomsmen, and groom.  The spot for the ceremony is right off of the road (and I do mean right off of the road) so here are my ideas so far...

    1.  Rent a limo or a convertible for everyone to be revealed from.  Basically, they will step out and immediately walk down the aisle to their spot.

    2.  Rent a limo or a convertible for only my dad and I.  Then have everyone else come from the side.  This will mean that the guests will be able to see them coming a bit before they begin their walk down the aisle.

    3.  See #2 but I would also do the same.

    4.  Construct a type of room divider (with fabric or what not) and put that somewhere that will work with the venue)

    5.  I don't know!

     

    So, if you have any ideas or have dealt with the same problem, please let me know what you think.  Is the "big reveal" that important to people (like as a guest, or as a bride, or as a groom?)

    i'd definitely either go with the limo and have them immediately walk if the budget permits or build the divider.

    I am having the same problem however for me I don't think we really have options. We are having our wedding at the park too and there is literally no where to do a "big reveal" since you have to walk a little way to even get to our spot...we don't have the option of driving INTO that area. I thought about totally "nixing" walking down the aisle to music/processional and just have everyone show up at a certain time lol...I really don't know what else to do though.
