Temple Exit Door Location

 

SOUTH DOORS



The designated doors for wedding couples to exit the temple through and have their celebration is on the south side.

After the sealing, your guests will exit through the front door and then walk around to wait for the couple's big exit.


Pros:

  • Not crowded


Cons:

  • Tight space for temple exit
  • Direct sunlight

Flowers

The Draper Temple Flower procedure is AMAZING! You can take the bride's bouquet and groom's boutonniere all the way up to your locker. Don't worry brides, the lockers in the bridal room are extra big so your flowers won't get squished!


Best Tips:

  • Leave the flowers for wedding party in a car (preferably the car of the best man or maid of honor) to grab after the sealing.
  • Put wedding party flowers in a cooler of ice. Place a towel down in between the ice and flowers to prevent freezing!
  • Highly recommend also filling the cooler with plastic water bottles for your guests to have after group pictures :)
