How to Deal with Porta Potties for an Outdoor Event?

I don't think any bride dreams about having to use a porta potty on her wedding day. As wedding season approaches and I have more and more brides asking for outdoor receptions, the big question is what do we do about bathrooms? Porta potties are so ugly, what should I do? Here are a few photos of how to make the dreaded pp a little less offensive.

I am once again excited and extremely humbled to be featured on Style Me Pretty for Leah & Brian's wedding weekend in Escalante, Utah.

Making Porta Potties More Appealing for Your Outdoor Event!

An outdoor event can be challenging and the need for porta potties a must! I feel it is important to make your guests as comfortable as possible by "jazzing up" the porta potties by adding a table with flowers, hand sanitizer, mints, lotion, a mirror, and cute signage. There are a few options out there, the standard porta potty, you can also rent sinks and if you have more of a budget a porta potty trailer which feels more like a traditional restroom with sink and mirrors included.
Below are few photos of events I have staged.

This is an example of the trailer that my friend Cameron shot, I did not stage this event but love this trailer!!

I was honored to be a part of Leah & Brian's day. They were married on Leah's parent's property in Escalante, Utah and had their reception in a pole barn on an adjacent property. This 3 day event included a bon-fire, hoedown, brunch and of course the main event and reception.

Outdoor weddings are my favorite! The possibilities are endless! For this event we incorporated Leah & Brian's love of the outdoors, the west, color and textures to create a beautiful and unique space in a harsh desert environment. Leah knew exactly how she wanted her day to be and gave me the tools I needed to create an elegant yet rustic space with the spectacular Escalante Grand Stair Case as a backdrop. What an amazing place to have a wedding!

Below are some of my favorite images from the day!
