A bride and groom's wedding ceremony is one of the most important days in their lives. After having spent hours with their marriage celebrant carefully choosing the most appropriate vows it is a real shame when neither they can hear the celebrant nor their guests can hear them repeat their vows. This is where a portable PA system can save the day!

There are several key features one should look for when choosing a portable PA. As many wedding ceremonies are now held in outdoor settings there is not always mains power available. There are several portable PA systems that run on AC or DC power with an internal rechargable battery. Some models will even run for up to 10 hours on battery power.

As many wedding ceremonies have music in them you should look for a system that has a USB/SD/CD/MP3 player. This feature can significantly add to the system's cost so if budget is tight at least look for a system with an input for an MP3 player. In terms of overall clarity look for a system that has a two way speaker system with for example an 8 or 10" ...
... woofer with say a 1" tweeter top end. This will produce a much clearer sound than a system that has a woofer only. Overall weight of the PA systems should not be overlooked as sometimes the wedding ceremony may be in a fairly remote location.

Generally the more powerful the system, the heavier they are. Luckily many models feature inbuilt press up handle and wheels. Last but not least consideration is wireless microphones. Many systems are available with either a handheld wireless microphone or bodypack and lavalier (or headset) microphone, or both. For example the marriage celebrant may wear a wireless headset or lapel and give the bride and groom a handheld microphone that they can pass between them for their vows.
