Summer Weddings!
The grass is GREEN. Flowers blooming. The sun has a warm glow. Summer has it's advantages, but it can also have it's downfalls. Sometimes the sun's "GLOW" is a little too warm. If you aren't careful you could end up suffocating in a corsette, layers of tooling, makeup melting, and your guys are drenched in sweat under their dark suit jackets! Yikes! Sunshine can make for a beautiful blue sky, white fluffy coulds, and glowing skin...so if your heart is set on a summer wedding { June-September } ...
HERE ARE SOME TIPS to stay comfortable on your "sunshine and flower" day!
- Find a location with trees for shade. Weather for your ceremony or simply for taking pictures, shade is ideal for photos because it softens the light of the sun and prevents you from squinting into the camera.
- If you have an outdoor ceremony then have an air conditioned reception or plenty of fans to keep people cool. Your guests won't stick around very long to party if they're dripping in sweat and uncomfortable.
- Dress COOL. Pick a wedding dress with breathable fabric, less layers, and maybe even go barefoot! Choose linen shirts or vests for the guys and don't make them wear suit jackets.
- Create wedding programs that can double as fans for your guests at the ceremony { see Pinterest for ideas }
- Matching parasols for you and your girls could be cute and keep you cool!
