Our oldest child got married last weekend.
- It was a beautiful wedding and she was a stunning bride.
When she found the perfect dress, about two years ago), she tried to take into account that the wedding would be in a barn and my associate and I would be at the mercy of the weather. The gown was strpeachss and my associate and I figured she could just put on a coverup if needed. What my associate and I didn’t take into account was the fact that it could be almost 90 degrees. The entire bridal party was fighting the sweat that was running down their backs, then i would have given anything for even five degrees cooler that afternoon. The locale did have weather conditions control to some extent however with high ceilings and such, even a commercial HVAC unit can’t keep a barn cool. The walls are not insulated as that would take away from the rustic appearance so any heat or air goes right through to the outside. I unquestionably felt sorry for our child and my partner,(who was wearing a suit), and when the photos were done, they both changed back into regular clothing. It was a fantastic call because at one point I thought our child was going to pass out from the heat. When planning an event as large as a wedding, you need time to prepare for it. My friend and I had two years to make sure everything was perfect however the only thing my associate and I had no control over was the weather. It could have been cold and raw, or moderate and sunny. My friend and I just hoped for the best when they picked the date.
