It is so cold here today!!! Not a really good day for an outdoor wedding. Last week it was eighty degrees and today it is twenty-two. So I hope that there were no cold Brides today.

So many times couples look at their venue on a cold blustery day, for their wedding in the summer months. Something to keep in mind is that the summer months can be very hot which for the guys is tough wearing black tuxedos with heavy jackets and the bride in her long gown. I have done three weddings in the Krone Conservatory where if it is ninety degrees outside it is one- hundred and ten inside. All of the weddings had water on hand for their guests and also printed their programs on fans so that the guests could cool off.

Another important topic should be to keep the ceremony at no more than twenty minutes as every one is "cooking". Your Officiant should be able to create a ceremony that is elegant, respectful but still fun in a shorter ceremony.

At my weddings I also tell the guys and girls to not lock their knees while standing up there. You need to keep the blood flowing to the brain or I guarantee that you will pass out!

So even though it is sooooo cold now be sure to keep your cool this summer.

Good luck and God Bless.....Rev. BB
