All these little things will make sure you are ready for anything. If it happens that your dress gets dirty because of the grass, you will be able to clean it. The same goes is something accidentally tears.

Practice the walk

Golf courses can be full of surprises, and you might not be used to walking on the grass in heels. Even though you can lay a rug to make an aisle, you should still practice your walk in your wedding shoes and gown. Take it easy and get your feet ready for anything. The ground might be unstable, so consider having medium height heels that are steady.

Whether you’re a member of a certain country or golf club or not, you can still book your wedding venue there. There are plenty of reasons why you should have your wedding at a golf course and they are pretty good. Just make sure to organize and check everything twice and your wedding day will be memorable and perfect.
