It’s August, and you know what that means — heat, heat, heat. If you’re planning an outdoor wedding and expecting sky rocketing temperatures, your guests are going to be HOT. However, there are a few simple, creative things you can do to make them a little cooler and more comfortable.
1. OFFER BOTTLED WATER: Buy these in bulk and put them on ice before the ceremony for an inexpensive heat hack. If you want to go above and beyond, print out custom labels for the bottles that match your theme, which is also inexpensive.
2. GO WITH A WATER AND PUNCH BAR: Photogenic and smart? We’ll take it. Set up an infused water bar with your favorite flavors for a colorful, delicious way to hydrate.
3. MISTING STATION: A spritz of cooling facial spray will have your guests feeling fresh and on their way.
4. PARASOLS: The coolest companion for a sunny day.
5. SUNGLASSES: There’s nothing worse than forgetting your sunglasses when you go to an outdoor wedding. Save your guests from sun in their eyes!
6. POPSICLES: Offer pretty popsicles to guests during cocktail hour for a sweet, refreshing treat.
7. FANS: Stack fans in a decorative basket at the entrance of the ceremony for a cost-effective way to keep things breezy.
8. WET TOWELS: A quick pat from a cold, wet towel and your guests will be ready to party.
