Top 10 Outdoor Summer Wedding Essentials

Whether you’re hosting the event or attending, outdoor weddings (or any festivity) will always have some special requirements to ensure your ultimate comfort. You will be exposed to the elements (tents or not), and you want to make sure that you’re prepared for everything from sun, rain, insects and minor first aid needs. Here is a list we have compiled to help you prepare.

Bug spray.
Sun screen
Umbrella/parasol
Water to keep yourself hydrated
Sweater/wrap for once it cools down
Small first aid kit – band aids (minor wounds/blisters), afterbite, epi-pen if anyone has allergies and we are now in the day and age where someone should be carrying a naloxone kit. You can save a life.
Comfortable shoes to change into
Always carry extra cash and a debit card for a designated ride home
Small camera. I no longer pack around my expensive camera (the bride and groom have a photographer for a reason)
Snacks. Whether it’s a late dinner service or you have the midnight munchies, it’s never a bad idea to have a few healthy snacks on hand to keep your energy up.

Pack everything into a pretty summer basket and get set to enjoy your day/evening celebrating with the happy couple.
