If you're planning a boat wedding, you want everything arranged down to the last detail. That means one of the first determinations is what time of day to get married. Most people avoid the early morning for a boat wedding, since the sea air tends to be cool. Although you can find a spectacular sunrise for the backdrop, many people who want to have the sky in a multicolored hue behind their boat wedding will opt for a sunset as the background.
Another consideration is bright, midday sun and its effect on your clothes, hair, cake, and guests. Overhead light and heat that is too bright causes clothing, hair and guest to wilt uncomfortably, unless you have a large boat and an indoor ceremony.
So for an outdoor boat ceremony, midday may not work. Of course, Toronto weddings and cruises on Lake Ontario don't have some of the same considerations about heat, since the temperature is milder than some tropical locations.
The couple can then be more flexible about the time of day that they plan their wedding. The couple will also want to consider the direction of the sunlight and what effect it will have on photographs and the comfort of the guests.
For example, while you'll want plenty of light, you don't want light originating behind the photo subjects, or the people in every photo will have shadows on their faces. Additionally, you won't want all of your guests staring into the sun as they are attempting to view your wedding ceremony.
You should consider the angle of the sun and the hours of daylight in the area where you are having your wedding cruise so that you can plan for the best sunlight scenario.
If your wedding is on one of the Toronto cruises on Ontario Lake, then you'll have different considerations than someone using a tropical cruise charter.
Late afternoon remains a very popular time of day for a boat wedding. The sun is still shining brightly, but is not directly overhead. With a little pre-planning, you can locate the ceremony on the boat where it will be beautifully lit and still conducive to easy viewing and photographs.
If your wedding and subsequent reception or social gathering extends into the evening on the boat, or if you opt for a night wedding, then be sure to bring a wrap or shawl of some kind. You may want to suggest such a covering to your guests as well.
The night breezes on a boat an also be quite chilly, and you don't want to be shivering through your ceremony or reception. Likewise, you'll want your guests to be comfortable as well. Again, this is mostly a consideration if your wedding is on the deck of the ship, not if you are in a large stateroom or lounge protected from the elements.
Planning ahead will enable you to choose just the right time of day for your boat wedding.
