10 Fantastic Tips for Summer Weddings

July 3, 2019

The summer months – June, July and August – are the most popular time of year to get married in the United States: days are longer, the sun is shining and options for outdoor venues are plentiful. Perfect for a party, right? However, summer’s glory may also bring with it some challenges – namely sweat, bugs and sunburns – you’ll want to be sure you’re doing your best to keep guests comfortable and party-ready.
Whether you’re planning your own wedding or helping a friend or family member plan their special day, we’ve rounded up our favorite tips from event planners as well as some top wedding blogs to ensure that everyone has the best time possible.

Send Save the Dates Early

Couples typically send save the dates around six months before the wedding. However, summer brides- and grooms-to-be should try to send save the dates as far in advance as possible to give guests ample time to plan around vacations and kids’ summer breaks – especially if it is a destination wedding or in a beach town.

Have a Field Day

Instead of a rehearsal dinner, host a late afternoon field day for guests: queue up a water slide and water guns, fill up water balloons and set up other fun games (bocce ball, ******** and horseshoes) so everyone can let loose and get to know each other before the wedding. Bonus points for bringing ice-cold beer.
