From rain to heat waves, weather can throw curveballs on your big day. Here’s how to prepare without panicking.

1) Backups

  • Tent rentals: Reserve in advance; last-minute = pricey.
  • Indoor Plan B: Always confirm the backup space’s look and capacity.

2) Season-Specific Prep

  • Summer: Fans, shade, hydration stations.
  • Winter: Heat lamps, blankets, indoor spaces.
  • Spring/Fall: Tents with removable walls for quick shifts.

3) Attire

  • Shoes: Flats or wedges for grass.
  • Fabric: Breathable for summer, velvet/wool for winter.
  • Umbrellas: Match your palette and have them ready.

4) Photography

  • Golden hour: Shifts with season; build flexibility.
  • Rain shots: Clear umbrellas + reflections = magic photos.
  • Snow: Build in extra time for movement and warm-up.
