We’ve already had the hottest May day on record, so we could be in for a scorcher of a summer! Whether you love the heat or loathe it, it’s important to factor in the effects of the sun when planning your dream day. While rain can be an inconvenience, it’s actually the sun that can do the most damage. With so much going on, it’s easy to forget the things you’d ordinarily do as second nature. So, make a conscious effort to stay well hydrated throughout the day. This is important for your guests too. Bubbly is lovely, but balancing the booze with plenty of water will ensure everyone stays safe and well. If you’re marrying or celebrating al fresco, gift your guests fans, parasols, sunglasses and suncream as they arrive. Or for a more sustainable approach, encourage them to bring their own in your invitations. Be sure to pack these essentials for yourself too. Additionally, ensure there’s enough shade to protect everyone from the sun’s rays. Just a little extra thought ahead of time will mean you’re all comfortable and able to enjoy every moment. I hope you’re able to pick up plenty of inspiration and tips from this issue. So, enjoy and keeeep planning!
