According to photographers, wedding photos taken in the rain are much more striking and atmospheric than those taken in sunny weather. Colors are more intense, raindrops adorn flower bouquets, wedding attire, or hair, and the rush to avoid getting soaked makes the photos more spontaneous and natural. Another advantage is the fact that no one will suffer from the heat. Let's remember that an outdoor summer wedding can be much more uncomfortable. Guests may avoid dancing, floral decorations may quickly wilt and lose their visual appeal. Rain or cooler weather, on the other hand, revitalizes plants and encourages people to dance to warm up. Such weather is decoration in itself and makes the event memorable and an opportunity for unique memories. How to prepare for rain on your wedding day?
An original idea would be to purchase umbrellas and rain boots in all colors of the rainbow, which we can give to guests in case of a rainy scenario. This fact alone will make the wedding party unique. It’s good if the garden or park where the wedding takes place has several gazebos or tents sheltering even dozens of people. Organizers can also provide towels for guests, which they can use to dry off if they get wet. The wedding tent can also be designated for the band if a live band plays during the wedding. Musical equipment must not get wet, and without proper shelter, the band will have to evacuate in case of rain. Besides the tent, another good idea may be to protect the ground in the area intended for dancing or where the tent will be set up.

Rain doesn’t have to be scary if we prepare for all occasions. The weather in our country can be surprising, so we should be ready for all circumstances. Usually, we have plenty of time when planning a wedding as early as a year or more in advance. Choosing the location for an outdoor wedding is therefore very important. In case of rain, guests would like to be close to a place where they can possibly dry off or change clothes. The most convenient option will be a garden or park located near guest accommodation. A hotel with a sizable garden will be an ideal solution when the wedding day is rainy. Perhaps organizing a wedding in a hotel ensures no competing events will be held at the same time. That way, if it rains on the wedding day, the event can be moved indoors, e.g., to the restaurant hall. When hotel rooms are reserved for guests on the premises, there will be no concern that other guests might want to use the restaurant. Sometimes the hotel has more than one restaurant hall, so there should be no problems.
