Outdoor weddings may only occur with the permission of the local bishop. If his permission has been granted, then any clergy who normally could preside over a wedding would be able to do so, including deacons.

Can a Deacon officially administer the sacrament of marriage?
A Catholic deacon can preside over weddings and baptisms without a priest present. However if he does preside over a wedding, Mass can not be included in the actual wedding ceremony which traditionally is done that way. In other words, if the wedding takes place outside of Mass he can administer or preside the wedding. I think it is also possible that if the wedding ceremony is during a Mass, a priest will preside the parts of the Mass, specifically the consecration of the Eucharistic bread and wine, and the deacon can perform the wedding part during the MassDeacons or Priests or higher orders 'preside' over the ceremony. Only two lay people can actually 'administer' the sacrament. The 'presiding' clergy member simply witnesses the marriage to make it Church 'official'
Can a Catholic priest of a church in Iowa officiate at Wisconsin wedding?
For a Catholic priest to celebrate any sacraments, he must have a Celebret which is a signed document which is sealed by his Bishop attesting that he is a validly ordained priest and free to say Mass. He must be in possession of his Celebret to officiate at any sacraments where he is not personally known. To celebrate a sacrament (such as marriage) outside of his own diocese, he must have specific permission from the Bishop of the diocese in which the Church resides, in addition to his Celebret;, and specifically for a marriage, he must also have permission of the pastor of the Church where the wedding is to be held. If he has all of those permissions, then, yes, he may celebrate the wedding.
