The fall and winter weddings are romantic but you may have a problem: nasty weather, which can often happen in these seasons. The most frequent thing is rain, and though you may say that rain is very romantic, it can ruin the whole wedding! How to embrace the rain and have a nice wedding even on a wet day? Here are some smart tips and ideas!
Scheduling
Consider a flexible timeline. If a torrential downpour looks likely right at the time of your vows, consider extending the cocktail hour or perhaps going immediately from vows to reception. When planning, allow the schedule some flex room.
Tents
If you are planning to have your nuptials out, you should always have a plan B: a venue where you may take your reception. Have a tent rental and be prepared to confirm the rental and set up the week of the wedding if the forecast looks like rain.
consider having a tent at hand on your wedding day, if it rains, it will save you
prefer a transparent tent to let your guests enjoy the rain, it's so romantic when you are in
add lights - as much as possible as rainy days are often gloomy and some light will brighten the space up
Fighting The Weather
If it’s a southern location, the rain can be accompanied with heat, so you may give your guests some fans, too. If it’s rather cold, ask your vendors if portable heaters and tent walls are available, and if not, locate a vendor for these prior to the big day. Consider a coverup for yourself to stay comfortable.
Umbrellas
The best wedding favor on such a day is a pack of cool umbrellas! Get creative with this opportunity: give them colorful umbrellas if you want a statement in your pics or try transparent ones to see them all very well. Consider some special and chic umbrella for your couple to look wow and to stand out from the crowd a lot.

Accessories And Small Tips
Put on some rubber boots, they can be cute and a sweet rustic touch to your look saving your gorgeous shoes for the reception. Offer the same boots to your bridal party, to the groom and groomsmen and to everyone else who feels like it. Go for a waterproof mascara – even if there’s no rain, you may get some happy tears. If you’re worried about out-of-control humidity hair, consider a beautifully messy bun or relaxed flower crown. These styles are on trend and perfect for preventing frizz and falling.
