Come rain or come shine

     Saturday June 8, 2013 was set to be one of the hottest days of our Wine Country wedding season so far. 

Since it was my birthday, I had scheduled myself off for the weekend. Yet, I couldn't help think about all of those weddings that would be going on and how they were handling the weather. This is the type of day where timing really is everything. An afternoon, outdoor ceremony - say 2pm would have been so hot! but a late afternoon, 4pm or later would have experienced a cooler evening and even the fog coming in! As one wedding site owner reminded me "if you don't like the weather, just wait 20 minutes!"

foggy morning turned into lovely day!

What have you planned for your wedding guests comfort? And whats the plan B? I always make sure to talk over a rainy day plan with my couples (even my July weddings). My thought is, if we've talked about it, we might not need it... plan for the worst, then hope for the best.

     Tenting can be a great option, or plan B for your wedding. There are many amazing tent styles, liners, and sizes to choose from. Talk it over with your planner, and then have your tent company walk your wedding venue with you too. They might have something to suggest that isn't even listed on their inventory yet that will amaze you!
