Episode Notes

It’s episode four of the first season of the Put A Ring On It Podcast and we’re talking about bad weather on your wedding day. This episode features three guests who got married during two MAJOR weather events in 2011… and lived to tell the tale. First up, Amanda talks about her wedding in the middle of Hurricane Irene. In the second half, Kristen and Joe talk about the freak snowstorm that caused their venue to lose total power.

We talked about:

Have a Plan B – and make sure you’re “ok” with it as an option
Talk with your venue about WHEN you need to make the call as to whether or not you’ll be using your Plan B – most venues need HOURS or even a few days notice to make the adjustment.
Hire great pros that you feel comfortable with and that you trust
Your guests will take cues from you and your partner: If you freak out, they likely will, too; if you stay calm, they will probably follow suit.
