Rent a Tent
If you’re planning an outdoor wedding and there’s rain in the forecast, you might assume you need to bring the festivities indoors. But why not rent a tent and keep your celebration outside? A clear tent is a unique and fun option that will give your guests a view of the sky while maintaining the feel of an open-air wedding.Plan For How You’ll Protect Your Dress
Next, make plans for how you’ll protect your dress from the rain and mud. You can purchase a petticoat to wear under your dress. This will help keep the hem of your dress off the ground as you move around. You can also have a dry cleaner spray the bottom of your dress with a protectant, such as Scotchguard.Bring Umbrellas (And Provide Them for Your Guests)
If rain is coming on your wedding day, it’s time to whip out the umbrellas! Wedding photographers recommend using clear umbrellas to get the best pictures (sans shadows). But if you prefer, you can also opt for fun, colorful umbrellas. You might also want to consider providing umbrellas for guests.Contact Your Vendors
You should also plan for contingencies with your vendors. Make sure that everyone is on the same page and knows the plan for when rain arrives. Chances are high that they also have some helpful advice on how to make the most of a rainy wedding day!Get Some Epic Pictures
