WHY WEATHER PLANNING IS ESSENTIAL

Brisbane’s climate can be unpredictable, with sudden rain showers, strong winds, or extreme heat affecting outdoor events. A solid weather contingency plan ensures your special day runs smoothly, regardless of conditions. Here’s everything you need to know about: WEATHER PLANS FOR EVENTS AND WEDDINGS!

CHOOSING WEATHER-RESISTANT FLOWERS

Certain flowers withstand Brisbane’s weather better than others. Consider using hardy blooms like orchids, roses, proteas, and Australian natives, which can handle heat, humidity, and unexpected rain.

VENUE CONSIDERATIONS

When selecting an outdoor venue, check if they offer weather contingency options such as marquees, indoor spaces, or sheltered areas. If hosting a garden wedding, ensure pathways remain accessible in case of rain.

BACKUP FLORAL ARRANGEMENTS

Work with your florist to create a backup plan for floral arrangements. Hanging installations may need to be adjusted for strong winds, and outdoor centerpieces should be weighted down to prevent movement.

SHADE AND SHELTER OPTIONS

For summer weddings, provide shaded areas for guests to stay cool and hydrated. Tents, umbrellas, or strategically placed floral canopies can enhance comfort while maintaining an elegant aesthetic.

SECURING FLORAL DECOR

High winds can be a challenge for floral arrangements. Ensure all installations, archways, and table decorations are securely fastened. Consider low centerpieces for tables to avoid them toppling over.

LAST-MINUTE WEATHER SOLUTIONS

Stay informed with up-to-date weather forecasts and have essentials like umbrellas, portable fans, or blankets on hand. Keep communication open with your vendors to ensure a seamless transition to your backup plan.
