2. Dance in the Rain

Don't let a little rain dampen your outdoor dance floor dreams! Set up a designated dance area with clear umbrellas suspended overhead. As the raindrops fall, your guests can groove to the music without a care in the world. It's like a romantic scene from a movie, and you're the director! Just make sure you consider wind and hire a professional decor company to install them safely.

3. Umbrella Art Installation

Elevate your event's ambiance with a stunning umbrella art installation. Hang colorful umbrellas upside down from the ceiling to create a whimsical and vibrant atmosphere. It's an Instagram-worthy backdrop that'll have your guests snapping away.

4. Add Wow Factor to Centerpieces

Centerpieces are an impactful way to show your event's design. Use parasols to add height and interest without blocking views across the table. Add florals or battery-operated lights to dress up the look. Your guests will be thoroughly impressed.

5. Umbrella Favors

Send your guests home with a thoughtful and practical gift. Personalized umbrellas with your event's date and logo make for memorable and useful party favors. Plus, every time it rains, your guests will think of your amazing event – talk about leaving a lasting impression!

Rain or Shine: Weather-Proofing Your Wedding with the Right Rentals

junio 07, 2023

Planning a wedding can be both exciting and stressful and the last thing you want to worry about is unpredictable weather. Rain during your gorgeous wedding can be challenging, but in this blog post, we'll help you weatherproof your event space with the right rentals. We are ensuring your special day is a magical experience, rain or shine. Here are 5 easy tricks to keep the weather off of your mind.

Umbrellas

No matter the weather, umbrellas can all come in handy for any kind of event, but for weddings they're critical. Your guests will typically arrive 30 minutes before ceremony time. Umbrellas can help protect them from blazing sun or bits of rain while they wait for the nuptials.

Blankets

In a humid environment, extreme temperatures are very common. When the weather gets cooler, help your guests warm up with blankets. They'll stay longer!

Use blankets to keep ceremony seats warm and dry or to dress up a lounge area for those who have danced until their feet hurt. You can also offer them on ceremony chairs to keep the chill away during your vows.

Climate Control

Humidity can be a challenge in certain climates, but with the right equipment, you can create a comfortable environment for everyone. Consider renting air conditioning units or fans to keep the temperature cool and pleasant inside your event space. Proper ventilation and air circulation will ensure that your guests feel refreshed and at ease, no matter how humid it is outside. Say goodbye to sticky discomfort and hello to a celebration that everyone can enjoy!

Rain-Proof Décor

Embrace the possibility of rain by incorporating rain-proof décor elements into your wedding design. Opt for durable materials such as acrylic, metal, or waterproof fabrics for your table settings, centerpieces, and other decorations. Get creative with umbrellas as props or use them as vibrant pops of color for your outdoor photo sessions. With a little imagination, even a rainy day can turn into a magical backdrop for your love story.

Backup Plans

While rentals can provide excellent protection against unexpected weather, it's always wise to have a backup plan. Work closely with your wedding planner to develop contingency options, such as reserving an indoor space nearby as an alternative. By having a backup plan in place, you can feel confident knowing that your wedding day will be seamless, rain or shine.

 

Weather should never dampen the spirit of your special day. By utilizing the right rentals, you can transform any event space into a weather-proof haven. Remember, rain or shine, your wedding is a celebration of your love story, and with a little preparation and creativity, you can create unforgettable memories for yourselves and your loved ones.
