Heat and Outdoor Ceremony!!!

Up until a few weeks ago, we've had so much rain on the weekends, that my biggest wedding worry was the rain. Now they are forecasting that Saturday will be the hottest day of the week, with high in the 90's. Our ceremony is at 12:30pm (about 30 mins). Should we consider doing it inside? We have about 8 or so elderly guests (age 60 and above). I was hoping for a garden ceremony which is the reason why we picked our hall, but I don't want anyone to faint and since my day is so soon (this sat), I don't think I have any time to get any fans/supplies to help keep people cool.

What do you girls suggest?

You can buy card stock and make acouple of paper fans. They come out looking nice, or put up a table with glasses of cold water. At last it won't rain. I'm sure everything will turn out fine. Best of Luck!!!

i agree w/daisy--have a place where your guests can get water and buy a few fans---your guests would appreciate it!!

If you have to do it outside I would tell the Ushers to tell the guests to feel free to take OFF their jackets too cool down - I would give each guest a cold drink and maybe cool clothes they can place on their skin to cool down - and I would seat as many of the guests (especially the elderly guests) in the shade - that should help if you have to do it outside
