Are these ok for a beach wedding? I mean, will it resist/ fly under windy conditions??

Real windy conditions, not a good idea. Light wind and you'll be ok. Make sure the lanterns are completely filled with hot air so they have the best chance of going straight up rather than fly horizontal first. We set them off and a couple landed in trees. Nothing caught fire but there could have been a problem if we were in drier conditions. We are in Florida and have had a lot of rain.

As long as they aren't too awfully big I don't see a problem. We are out in the middle of nowhere so these things aren't a problem for us. We do have lots of strong winds and it seems to be doing OK with that. Looks great too. Good luck.

It can handle pretty strong wind but I wouldn't fly it on a day with 20+ mph wind.

I used it for my garden wedding. It can hold up. But some reinforcement may be needed at the corners.

Sure, but be aware that it is light and will not withstand a lot of constand wind. If using on the beach for a 1 time event I would suggest using the sides and screw in anchors for the tie downs. Hope this helps!

If there is ABSOLUTELY no wind AT ALL, then it works ok outside. Or, as well as it does inside, anyway, which isn't all that well....This thing is challenging to control under ideal conditions, add a breeze to the equation and you should plan to spend more time hunting for it in the trees than actually flying.

The Hubsan is very light so light winds should be ok but medium winds may be too much.

Any small craft will be affected by the winds. This preforms very well indoors, and somewhat ok outdoors. I would fly outside when the winds are slow.

Hello Brian: I live in the Desert and it gets pretty windy here. I have not had an issue with the cushions blowing away. However I am about 210lbs and I will tell you that I wish the cushions were a little firmer / thicker. I do love the set and would by it again if I could get a thicker cushion. They really are a great company to do business with. Hope this helps.

For high winds you'll want different pegs (10-12") and additional support lines (there are enough places for you to tie on to on the fly sheet), but I would expect it to hold up fine. I was stuck in a light to moderate windy downpour, and stayed dry.

The wind would be a problem, having camped on a lot of beaches myself. You will need something more than the type of stakes provided to keep it firmly connected to the ground. You could buy really long stakes or weight the corners. It's a great lightweight tent but if the wind blows hard, I would expect to have problems.

If the breeze is under 25 mph.... it should be okay. Hopefully it will be weighed down so as to not being lift by a strong gust

We used them at the beach recently on 3 breezy/windy days to anchor our Sport-Brella. I angled them against the wind and they worked great.

It keeps the tent from blowing upward if it is windy !!! Trust me...you need them !!! We just did a party without them and wham...the wind came up and there went the tent right up and over people and cars !!! It was ugly and we will always from now on use them !!!!

The tent is incredibly sturdy when windy. I always bring a few plastic baggies (taking care never to let them blow away, of course) just in case I need to fill them with sand to anchor down the inside of the tent. So far, I have not needed to do so. The light but sturdy frame of the tent (along with the stakes it comes with) is more than enough to sustain a very windy day. :)

They're pretty light weight but it would need to be a pretty stiff wind to move them. If you get them wet, they wil. Expand and stay in place better.

I am not sure if you are just putting this up for an event or keeping it up for an extended period of time. If it is just for an event, then I would use sand bags tied to the bottom of each of the poles. I live in Vancouver, Wa near the Gorge and we get High winds about 4 to 5 times during the year, and my canopy is set up year round and acts as another room off my patio, and we have the canopy bolted to the house in several places on one side of the canopy and several steal stakes in the ground on the other side where we taped the poles to the stakes. It has servived 2 springs one summer, and a winter. I am very happy with this one, and over the years we have tried several other canopies. Hope the sand bag idea is helpful, dress them up if this is for an important event. 20 lbs per pole is my suggestion. GOOD-LUCK !!!!
