Keeping Guests Comfortable During a Summer Wedding

Summer wedding season is in full swing and if you're planning on tying the knot in the warmer months, chances are you're gonna want to keep your guests comfortable. And as a professional hairstylist and makeup artist based on Galveston Island, I've seen my fair share of outdoor beach weddings. Trust me, there's nothing worse than a bunch of hot and bothered guests at your shindig.

First things first, have plenty of water on hand. Nothing beats the heat like a cold H2O. And if you're feeling extra fancy, go ahead and add some fruit slices or herbs to the water for a little extra something-something.

Next up, consider providing some shade. Now, I know this isn't always possible at a beach wedding, but if you have the option of setting up a tent or some umbrellas, do it. Your guests will thank you.

And if all else fails, embrace the heat and give out some fans or hand-held misters. It might not be the most glamorous accessory, but it'll definitely help keep your guests cool.

Now let's talk attire. Encourage your guests to dress for the weather. Light, airy fabrics will be their best friend. And as for the wedding party, make sure everyone is comfortable in their threads. No one wants to be stuck in a tux or a heavy gown on a hot summer day.

Finally, don't forget about the little things. Have plenty of sunscreen available and consider setting up a "beauty bar" with some extra deodorant, hairspray, and blotting papers. Your guests will appreciate the extra pampering.

By following these tips, you can help ensure that your summer wedding is a comfortable one for all of your guests. Happy planning!
