A couple kisses at Temple's Sugar Bush just outside Ottawa on their wedding day. The sun is glowing red because of the wildfire smoke in the sky.But Valerie Guerrera, a wedding planner in Montreal, told CBC News that air quality is something wedding planners and couples will likely need to think about even more moving forward.When looking at wedding venues, Guerrera suggests that couples always make sure there's an indoor option, just in case.
"We always encourage our couples to embrace whatever conditions arise during their wedding or engagement session," Gustafson said. "It's more authentic to their story, and dramatic weather can make for some of the most memorable and romantic images." Still, the smoke has cast a pall on some celebrations. Last weekend, a couple Irwin worked with at a wedding in Montebello, Que., had a clear day for their ceremony, but were "smoked out" the next day, when they'd planned an entire roster of outdoor festivities for their guests.
