If you are planning an outdoor summer wedding, be mindful of more than just the heat – pay attention to bug activity. So many brides dream up the most romantic setting of white tables and chairs under white lanterns hanging from trees with the backdrop of a starry night. Undeniably gorgeous but very inviting for tiny, winged guests. While you may not even notice because you are wrapped up in your wedding day bliss, your human guests will surely be busy swatting away the pests.
You don’t have to ditch the idea of an outdoor wedding and reception altogether, just make sure that you provide plenty of tiki torches, citronella candles, bug spray and an optional air conditioned indoor space for the wedding guests. Your table centerpieces could somehow incorporate the citronella candle and a travel size bottle of bug spray. There are plenty of ways to get creative and make your wedding a delight for everyone involved!
