In honor of our super fabulous brides making the walk down the outdoor aisle today, here’s a quick tip for outdoor Utah weddings:

Don a quick spritz of bug spray hours before your celebration.  This gives the scent time to dissipate and keeps the liquid away from your gown.  As a good back-up for later in the night, have one of your bridesmaids keep a few dryer-sheets handy.  Smooth it over your exposed skin to keep bugs away for a few more hours.  Dryer-sheets are good bug repellent that smell nice and run no risk of leaving a residue on your beautiful wedding dress.

Enjoy the great outdoors.
