Dust Storms and Weddings

Wow, what a way to wake up this morning. I really thought that there was a possibility that there was a major fire storm or the earth had become Mars. This is the back of my house and it had me worried for
all the weddings that are planned for this weekend.

Here are some precautions to consider:

• Consider moving most of the days preceedings inside, if possible.
• Request venues to clean down outside areas, so as no clothing is marked from the dust when sat on or utalised for photography
• Ask your photographer or planner to bring a white sheet for seated photography just in case
• I am sitting inside with no windows open right now, but I am still having the dust irritate my breathing, which means it will settle on all my furniture as well. Again, ask venue to ensure that all furniture is cleaned down
• Check with your photographer on their suggestions for avioding red photography, again have your planner/photographer to an emergency search for indoor photography opportunities
• Call your transport providers to ensure all vehicles are cleaned for your special day
• Keep your guests hydrated by offering water throughout the day/evening
• If you are wanting photography without the red tint, first check with your photographer on fees to remove this (their camera may even eliminate it already), secondly if bride and groom can schedule another shoot for a clear day. While this sounds expensive, just remember these are you memories. Don't go the whole hog to get makeup and hair done again, just keep it basic. Again will make for more interesting photography if your don't look exact in all pics
