Outdoor weddings are so beautiful, but if you're getting married in Calgary, Banff, Lake Louise, or any where for that matter, weather may not always be on your side! Our May Long weekend wedding in Banff gave us a taste of all four seasons! We saw sun, wind, rain and of course SNOW!

Make sure you have your back up plan ready to go and decide with your venue and wedding planner when to make the decision to keep the ceremony outdoors or move it indoors. Here are some other tips for outdoor weddings:

Have umbrellas or colorful wraps ready for your guests in case it rains or is a little chilly. Alternatively, you may want to provide those umbrellas to shade guests from the sun. Offer sunscreen in case guests forgot to lather up before heading to the ceremony.

Dress weights can be handy for you and your bridesmaids. These are sewn into your dress hem and found at most sewing supply stores.

Solemates - these handy little plastic peices fit over the heels of most high heel shoes and protect your heels from damage and from digging into the grass. You can order them here or conact us for some!
