I am getting married in late August and my guests are freaking out about how hot it is going to be. My fiance and I are going for a BBQ/cookout-type of wedding and we are going to be using a pretty gazebo at a public park. I am trying my hardest to keep prices super low but now i'm thinking about tents, canopies, round tables vs rectangular tables, "cooling stations" etc.
If this was a regular outdoor bbq on a random day people would not be so concerned. I want my guests to be comfortable, but to a certain extent. My wedding and reception combined is only 5 hours. We'll have a 30 min ceremony and move right into just hanging out, eating and enjoying some music.
What is a good solution to this?
(Trying to keep the guest list at no more than 50 people)
