Hi everyone! I am getting married on July 31, 2021 in Fuquay-Varina, NC and my ceremony is outdoor at 5:30PM. While the estate house will cast a shadow over the ceremony space due to the sun beginning to set and the heat will begin to break around that time, I want to try and cool off my guests as much as possible for the 30 minute ceremony. We were going to get the space tented but then realized that it would obstruct the arch view overlooking the tree top covered mountains which is why we chose the venue. So we are now looking at adding high velocity fans to the outdoor space as well as handheld fans and bottled water to keep our guests as cool as possible until the cocktail hour begins which is indoor along with the reception. There is a covered veranda with fans for the guest to use for a bit of reprieve during the ceremony but I wanted to get your thoughts on our cooling and do you think they will help to cool the space? Any other tips/suggestions are welcome!
Thank you in advance :-)
