How Long in Advance Should You Plan Your Wedding?

/in , , , , /by

Christmas and the New Year – what a wonderful time of happiness and family and gifts, but also the perfect time for a proposal. With so many deals and discounts, it’s no wonder that it’s one of the most popular times of the year to get engaged! If you found your forever partner and are now expecting to tie the knot sometime soon, you might be wondering what your wedding timeframe should be.

Well, it’s probably all very dependent on what you want for your special day. How in-demand is the venue you have your eye on? What about the caterer and the florist? How far booked out is your photographer?

That might seem like a vague answer, so to make it easier, most wedding experts will tell you that planning a year to 18 months in advance is usually going to be your best bet, but there are always exceptions. Depending on what time time of year you want to get married and how set you are on having specific vendors for your wedding, it could be more like 24 months, or if you’re doing it DIY or small-scale, it could be as short as 3-4 months!

Either way, experts also recommend taking the month right after you get engaged to stop, celebrate, and make big decisions with your new fiancé before any other planning begins.

Pre-Planning Decisions

In order for the wedding to go smoothly, both partners should have a good idea of what they envision for their wedding, and then to compromise if need be. Even if one partner has more investment in how the wedding looks or what they want there, both should be involved in this pre-planning period, because this is where big decisions get made.

  1. What season do you want the wedding?
  2. Do you want a long or a short engagement?
  3. What’s the wedding budget?
  4. If there’s a honeymoon, when will it be taken?
  5. How many people will be invited?
  6. How big will the wedding party be?

The average engagement period is 13-16 months in the US, so don’t feel like you have to rush, or like you have to wait that long at all! It’s nice to just celebrate love and the engagement in and of itself, so don’t feel pressured to begin planning the big ticket items straight away, especially if you already know you want a long engagement, since that gives you a timeframe forgiving of potential accidents that can take time to fix.

What’s the Next Step in Planning a Wedding?

Once you’ve figured out the answers to these questions, it will be much easier to start the heavy-duty planning after. For example, after a season has been chosen, it will be easier then to choose a specific date for your big day, and that timeframe is the most important part of planning, since everything else revolves around it from booking a venue to letting your vendors know when they’ll need to provide their services. And since you’ll know your budget and your target guest limit, your next step of finding and booking a venue will be made a little easier, since a lot of venues are booked a year in advance, but you’ve already talked about limits and constraints.

Make sure you know what kind of food you’re looking for and if the caterer is able to work within your chosen venue’s contract. Sometimes, certain venues will have guidelines or even a list of approved caterers that you’ll have to choose from, so if food is an important part of your wedding, plan accordingly! Your other vendors should be booked sooner rather than later, as well, such as:

  • Florists
  • Make-up and hair stylists
  • Photographers
  • Videographers
  • DJs
  • Bar services
  • Bakers
  • Portable restroom services
  • Clean up services
  • Etc.

You always want to make sure that each service has an opening for your date, especially if you’re looking for a specific provider!

Finally, when it comes to ‘save the dates’ and invitations, a good recommended timeframe to start sending out your paper or digital invitations is 6-8 months from your chosen date or ASAP for ‘save the dates’ and then 6-8 weeks from the wedding for invitations. And closer to the date might be cutting it close for some guests, so you’ll want to make sure you give them plenty of time to RSVP and plan for travel, childcare, pet care, and to purchase any gifts they might want to give. You should also be looking for flights or travel costs for your own honeymoon around the time you send out the ‘save the dates’ so that you can get a good grasp on how much you’ll be paying for travel, lodgings, food, etc. and factor that into how much you’ll be willing to pay for the other wedding services.

Can you be disqualified for going to the bathroom in golf?

Golfing Disqualifications: Going to the Bathroom

/in , , /by

When it comes to summertime sports and the transition into fall athletic pastimes, everyone may have their own ideas of an ideal sport to play or watch. Due to weather transitions and a pick-up of activity in the autumn months, it’s easy to fall into a sport played in the outdoors, with indoor options if need be. Golf, however, is not one of those sports that has an indoor option.

No, if you want to play a full game, weather plays an important role in the proceedings. Storms and inclement weather can put a stop to it, but heat can, as well. Fall presents a wonderful time to play golf, with temperatures settling at more bearable levels and a beautiful show of the changing of seasons coming to town. The President’s Cup was just played a couple of weeks ago, at Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, North Carolina from September 20 – 25.

September seems like a reasonable time of the year to expect cooler temperatures, right?

Well, on an ideal day, maybe. Summer heat seems to be stretching further and further into the year, and golfers must be ready to face the heat with portable fans and lots of hydration. But, with hydration, there comes the question of bathroom breaks – unless you’re at a high-end club with a bathroom or two strategically placed on or near the course, it seems you’re tough out of luck, and might have to escape to a thatch of trees or all the way back to the clubhouse if you want to do your business.

Except, if you’re a serious golfer competing in competitions, it seems that bathroom breaks could potentially earn you a disqualification.

Bathroom Breaks Aren’t Illegal in Golf, Right?

Well, unaccounted for bathroom breaks certainly have caused a stink for players in the past, that’s for sure.

In 2019, a 16 year old golfer participating in the U.S. Open sectional qualifying was disqualified after taking a bathroom break prior to turning his score card in due to an illness. And, while his coach and father cited the rule interpretation 5.6a/2, which states that, “if a player gets a sudden illness or injury (such as from heat exhaustion, a bee sting or being struck by a golf ball), the Committee should normally allow that player up to 15 minutes to recover before the player’s failure to continue play would be unreasonably delaying play.”

In this instance, the player returned around 15 minutes after the other players turned their score cards in and then failed to mention his illness, which is what led to his disqualification.

But that’s not the only time a golfer has been disqualified or docked for answering nature’s call – in 2017, two golfers got penalized in the same Women’s NCAA Golf Championship on different occasions for taking a golf cart to drive them to the closest facilities. This broke the regulation stating that, “a player must not ride on any form of transportation during a stipulated round unless authorized.” (Apparently, bathroom breaks are not authorized.)

Each player took a two-stroke penalty, which fortunately did not affect their teams or placement in the finals.

But this does seem to present a bit of a gendered-rift between regulations that can influence bathroom breaks. It’s been well known that male golfers can find a place as open as behind a cart or trash bin and do their business – it’s not so easy for women. Some might quote the existence of FUD — female urinary device — that lets the user go while standing up, but women, if wanting the same privacy and coverage as men, still have a more difficult time in finding a spot out of eyeshot of galleries and cameras. There is no simple “zipper down, release, zipper up,” and that makes finding a permanent or portable restroom pretty essential.

Portable Restrooms on the Green and Off

It seems that it may be a good idea to give portable restrooms a much bigger role in golf outings than we should like to think. Out of 18 holes, surely there would be a need at least once or twice – and at least you’d be protected from any airborne projectiles that golf is known for.

We hardly believe we’d make a case at this year’s President’s cup, but Moon Portable Restrooms likes to focus on our customers here in the Kentucky and Southern Indiana regions –  providing the clean, spacious portable restrooms, flushable restrooms, holding tanks, containment trays, and hand washing/sanitizing stations that we’re known for.

Moon Portable Restrooms has years of experience offering the best portable restrooms, restroom trailers, and handwashing stations available to customers across Kentucky and Southern Indiana. For more information, give Moon Portable Restrooms a call at 502-776-2199.

Affordable Outdoor wedding venues in Southern Indiana

5 Outdoor Wedding Venues in Southern Indiana

/in , , /by

In the search for the perfect wedding venue for your big day, there is no shortage of choices, but there is always a shortage of time, it seems. And while traditional wedding venues tend to be reliable and take less weight out of your wallet, the prime wedding months from April-October remain the most popular because of one incredibly important detail: weather. Nice weather, to be exact, especially if you’re looking at outdoor wedding venues.

Outdoor weddings take every advantage of that ‘nice weather’ factor, and have grown in popularity for a whole range of reasons – the beauty and ambience of a natural backdrop for your “I do’s” and wedding photos is unparalleled, the experience feels more personal to the couple, and the space that outdoor venues provide lends itself to each individual wedding plan, from large and lavish to small and intimate.

But not all outdoor wedding venues are created equal.

You can visit the Jeffersontown Historical Museum or website if you’re interested in more local history. 

There’s a lot of community pride in Jeffersontown that shines through annual events and activities. Some local events include Easterfest, SummerFest, the Gaslight Festival, Pumpkinfest, and Christmas Gaslight Square.

Jeffersontown also offers many parks for families and outdoor-minded individuals, such as Charlie Vettiner, Jeffersontown Veterans Memorial Park, Skyview Park, and Pope Lick Park, part of the Parklands of Floyds Fork.

Spacious, clean portable restroom trailer

Restroom Trailers: A Versatile Option for Events

/in , /by

Restroom trailers are an excellent option for many types of events. Just like porta-potties, they offer convenient on-site restroom facilities. They also boast several other features that we think are worth highlighting. Today on the blog it’s all about restroom trailers!

Restroom Trailers Offer Capacity Versatility

One of the key features a restroom trailer offers is higher capacity. From the smallest two-stall trailers to the largest multi-stall trailers, these units are perfect for events of any size. With a single unit, you can easily have several restrooms available at once, meeting the needs of your particular event easily. The best part is its scalable- if you only need two restrooms, you can select a unit like the Porta Lisa. If your event requires multiple stalls, you can book something like the 28’ Flex Large Restroom Trailer. This trailer boasts 7 stalls, with 2 flex stalls that you can add to either the men’s or women’s side of the trailer to meet your needs (with a dividing partition).

AC, Showers, and More Amenities

Another great thing about restroom trailers is that you can have as many or as few amenities as you’d like. All of Moon’s trailers come with custom features like full sinks, mirrors, and flushing toilets. However, if you want to spruce things up a bit, you can go for a unit like the Comfort Elite Platinum Plus. This luxury trailer has sophisticated design elements and accents and is equipped with both air conditioning and heat. It also offers 2 women’s stalls and a full size vanity, plus three urinals and 1 stall with a full size vanity on the men’s side. Its wood grain floor, mirrors, cabinetry, subway tile, and built-in stereo add a dash of sophistication to the experience too.

You can also select a unit that provides showering facilities if that suits your needs. For instance, our 8-Stall Shower Trailer can be used as a decontamination facility, a disaster relief unit, or an emergency shower. It comes with 8 shower stalls, 2 vanity countertops with 2 sinks each, custom mirrors, and a 300 gallon fresh water tank. This unit has 2 cabins, each with 4 showers and 1 vanity countertop.

Accessibility

You can also select from a variety of accessibility-focused restroom trailers. Our Comfort Elite ADA trailer is designed to meet the needs of people with disabilities, and meet ADA standards for accessibility. This trailer comes with 3 cabins: 1 men’s, 1 women’s, and 1 ADA compliant. It also features a one-touch hydraulic lowering system that allows the trailer to smoothly and quietly lower to the ground for greater accessibility.
