Is there anything more dreamy than a romantic, flower-filled wedding on a balmy summer’s day? It’s no secret that some sunshine, a gentle breeze and a gathering of friends and family is a recipe for a beautiful day all around.
But many of us who will be heading to a summer wedding this year may be wondering how to keep cool if the weather is particularly warm. Whether you’re in the bridal party or a much-loved guest, read on for our top tips on how to remain cool as a cucumber during this year’s summer wedding season.
A Dainty Parasol
A pale coloured, lightweight parasol can be worth its weight in gold when it comes to keeping cool. By keeping the sun off, a parasol can provide you with your own little shade canopy, leaving you feeling fresh all day long.
Choose Your Outfit Wisely
Cotton or silk are great choices of material for your summer wedding guest dress – they are breathable and will leave you feeling fresh in the warm weather. If you’re likely to be sitting out in the sun in the middle of the day, consider a lightweight pashmina to throw around your shoulders to keep them protected from the sun, particularly if you’ve got pale skin.
Bold, statement colours are on trend this season, according to fashion experts Marie Claire. For a wonderful range of wedding guest dresses, visit a specialist retailer such as https://ohelloclothing.com/collections/wedding-guest-dresses.
Stay Hydrated
It’s super important to stay hydrated on a warm day, but even more so if you’ll be enjoying a cheeky champagne or two, which can dehydrate you. Sip on some mineral water or fresh juice to keep your energy up.
Likewise, consider a facial hydration mist to keep your make-up fresh and cool you down.
Remember Those Sunnies
A pair of sunglasses can go a long way towards keeping you comfortable on a sunny day, and give your eyes vital protection from the sun’s powerful rays, too.
