I’m sure all of us on the East Coast were affected by hurricane/tropical storm Hanna’s down pour, gusty winds and humidity. I had site visits down in PG County with a client yesterday. Let’s just say I left Baltimore with my hair still nicely done but returned home with a poofy, uncurled hairdo. The Old South Country Club was gorgeous and definitely lives up to its name. It has a very old south, Charleston, SC feel. The front of the venue will be great for bridal party pictures.

Fortunately, we didn’t have any weddings yesterday but September is a popular month for weddings so I know Hanna caused less than desirable weather for couples…especially those who had their hearts set on an outdoor ceremony or reception. We have done our fair share of outdoor weddings and one thing we REQUIRE is a “Plan B” just in case the weather decides not to cooperate with our client’s dream wedding day. We’ve had some reluctant couples who feel they can wish, will or pray for good weather but I am always the voice of reason.

Although most couples don’t expect a hurricane in our area, rain is a definite possibility. Whether you’re planning on your own or have a wedding planner or DOC, this is a topic that should be discussed and planned for. There’s nothing worst than frantically trying to come up with a secondary game plan the day of your wedding.
