Since I have no clue on what to blog about today, I typed on Google Search and typed biggest wedding worry. The results came out pretty fast which was not what I had expected – Rain. No matter where you are in the world, Mother Nature is in control this part of the wedding. No wedding planners on earth could help you and stopping the rain falling if the weather suddenly turns terrible and it pours… Be it indoors or outdoor, rain can cause some kind of delay or worse, catastrophically upset your wedding day.

If you have planned to have an outdoor wedding ceremony and it happens to be the rainy season, check your local weather forecast daily. Although this will not stop the rain but it should prepare you for the unscheduled rain drops! Have a back-up plan of where to re-route your guests should you need to. Make sure that the path to the back-up location plan is also covered – watch Harry Potter’s The Deathly Hallows Part One – the scene where Fleur Delacour and Bill Weasley reception -from the tent to the Weasley’s house was covered. That way, you and your guests’ dresses are somewhat saved from the rain, not to mention your hair and make-up too. Have those Wellingtons ready just in case you still have to run across the muddy field to get indoors. !

Rain can also affect an indoor event! How you say? Through my experience living in South East Asia and the average rainy days for Malaysia is about 200-230 days out 365 days in a year, rain be it a light drizzle and a torrential one ( Malaysia has Monsoon Season). It creates slow traffic or even massive traffic congestion which will subsequently delay the guests arriving to the event. So when a client ask what is the potential problem that we might face for the event? It’s that four-letter word called rain. But, there is also a solution to this. I would usually wait until 75% of the guests have arrived and the Main Table guests  have all ‘checked-in’, you can already start the event. You don’t have to wait for all the guests to arrive to start the event. Remember, it is your special day. Of course you’d like to share it with your family and friends but it is also unfair to let the other guests waiting.

But some also believe that rain during your wedding means good luck! Not just in the western country, the malays also believe that if it rains during your solemnization or wedding ceremony means the marriage will be blessed with wealth...
