Cool tips for heat wave weddings

It's natural for couples who are planning a summer wedding to feel panic set in as they watch temperatures reach record highs and the UV Index go off the chart... Have no fear! Most weddings are held almost entirely indoors, WITH air-conditioning and have no cause for concern.

There are only a few times when you will really encounter the heat...

• outdoor photo shoots

• outdoor receiving lines

• indoor or outdoor locations without air conditioning (usually the ceremony location)

Here are some tips for staying cool at your heat wave wedding...

• bring a cooler with bottled water, fruits and veggies for down-time sustenance, and a few ice packs to keep both you and your food cool (keep your cooler in the limo for less hassle)

• use your air-conditioned limousine to cool off in between events

• pack deodorant in your bridal emergency kit

• if your indoor location has no A/C, consider renting large fans to cool your space

• consider a gown with a detachable train for less weight

• gather your locks together in an 'up do'

• select a veil that can be detached from the clip or tiara
