     Whether the Weather

You may feel like you're taking a HUGE chance on the weather when you plan an outdoor wedding. You may be nervous about the heat, rain, cold and (ooohh..) the worst is wind.
Our best suggestion is to make sure that you have a backup - a tent or a venue that has both an indoor/outdoor location for you to work with to make sure you and your guests can be protected from the elements.
You really need to follow your heart. If you're going to stress too much over things you can't control (like the weather), then maybe an indoor venue would work best ... but if it means a lot to you to have an outdoor wedding, you will find a way to make it work. Make the best of whatever the day brings. Plan for the sunshine AND the rain and enjoy whatever comes.  Don’t worry about lighting candles outdoors; it doesn’t get dark enough to see them until after 9:00. if you do use candles outdoor, shield them from the wind and use candle holders that catch the wax to protect your linens.  Position table décor to hold linens down during wind gusts.
Twinkle lights are beautiful in a yard at night.  Be sure to start your reception late enough that you can see them.
Let Something Borrowed remove your stress and provide you with a reception that will be the envy of your friends. Something Borrowed has been pleasing brides both indoors and out for 26 years.  Recently we have begun decorating only churches.

A windy day is not the day for thatching. (Irish proverb)
Yes, it's scary... all good trips are. I'm looking forward to our long, windy road, I'm sure there will be some bumps along the way. (Tom Moore)

Thank you for spreading the word about Something Borrowed. We can't help your friends if they don't know we are here.  As a token of our appreciation, Something Borrowed will give you a $25 gift card whenever someone you recommend books a wedding with us in 2022  ...easy as that.  Just make sure they have your mailing information when they come for their consultation visit. 

Thanks again,

Kristine
