Stylish Wedding Fans Your Guests Will Love (and Actually Use!)
We all dream of a sun-filled wedding day — the kind with blue skies, golden light, and unforgettable moments. But when the British summer turns up the heat (and yes, it really can!), guests in their finest attire can quickly find themselves wilting.
Enter: the wedding fan — your chic little secret to keeping everyone cool, comfortable, and photo-ready.
Hot Ceremony? No Problem
Whether you’re tying the knot in a sun-drenched garden, a rustic barn, a romantic tipi, or even on a beach abroad, summer ceremonies can get very warm. Add a packed room, a few glasses of bubbly, and the excitement of the day — and you’ve got a recipe for some serious fanning.
Offering your guests a handheld fan is a simple but thoughtful gesture that goes a long way. It helps them stay cool, adds charm to your décor, and becomes a lovely keepsake they’ll remember your day by.
