Keep Your Guests Cool

Summer weddings are great; minus the summer heat! If your ceremony or reception is held outdoors, take the proper precautions to ensure your guests are cool and comfortable. Rent fans or provide shade for your guests. Keeping cool is very important! Set-up “hydration stations” with water or fruit infused water to make sure everybody is enjoying themselves!

Summer Evenings

As we’ve mentioned, the summer heat can be sweltering! Depending where you plan to have your wedding and reception, plan for an evening wedding. If your wedding is in the evening, you will be wed as the sun sets and your reception will take place at night! Bonus, it will still be warm in the summer night and allow for your guests to dance the night away.
