For wedding venues, every square foot of usable space counts—especially when the weather is unpredictable. A smart pergola from Knutsen Outdoor can transform outdoor areas into all-season sanctuaries, allowing couples to say “I do” under the sky with peace of mind. These fully waterproof systems by Outdoor Elements are equipped with integrated gutters and seamless building attachments, make outdoor ceremonies and receptions viable rain or shine.
Smart pergolas offer motorized louvers controlled via smartphone, giving you sun when you want it and shade when you need it. This means couples can enjoy a golden-hour glow without worrying about their guests overheating—or worse, getting drenched in a surprise downpour. And with multiple color options and sleek, modern designs, these structures elevate the aesthetic of your venue, fitting seamlessly into any wedding theme.
What’s more, stunning add-ons like ambient lighting, built-in heaters, and even audio-visual systems let venues create dreamy, Instagram-worthy settings that attract higher-end clientele. The result? Expanded booking seasons, premium pricing, and greater venue flexibility—all leading to increased revenue.
According to a report by Wedding Market, the average cost of an outdoor wedding ceremony space in the U.S. is $2,197, and with weather-resistant smart pergolas, you’re far less likely to lose revenue due to inclement conditions (Wedding Market, 2023). They’re also low maintenance, which means less time and money spent on upkeep.
The future of outdoor weddings is here—and it’s as smart as it is stunning.
