A Back-Up Plan For Your Wedding Day. Rain? Snow? Heat? Be Covered.

by

This weekend’s heat wave /extreme weather caused difficulty for many California brides, grooms and planners.  Choosing wedding locations in California like Palm Springs, perfect for destination weddings, often make people think they don’t need to worry about weather.  Here’s the bottom line:

If any part of your wedding will be outdoors, always have a back-up location.

I’ll repeat.

If any part of your wedding will be outdoors, always have a back-up location.

Get the flowers (and your guests) out of the weather)!

Wherever your outdoor venue is, make sure that you or your planner make arrangements for a space nearby to be available in case of bad weather.  That could mean a tent, the church basement, or a banquet room inside, but make sure you have somewhere to go, and people designated to direct guests.

Chances are, you won’t need your back-up location.  But looking back at  the last year’s tornadoes, hurricanes and heat waves, you’ll surely breathe easier.

Live well, and love well,

They say a picture says a thousand words- Here’s proof.  A thousand thank yous to our beautiful bride Nicole Gillis for sharing these  lovely shots from her Fall 2012 Palm Springs wedding. We reached out to get the name of the photographer – as soon as we do, we’ll happily credit the shots!

Your something blue doesn’t have to be hidden under your dress or as subtle as pale nail polish – why not flowers? Blue is beautiful!
