DON'T make this common mistake if you're getting married in Cartagena, Colombia.
A common mistake that brides (and grooms) make is underestimating the heat and humidity. 🔥
Brides may also underestimate the effect of humidity on their hair and makeup, which can lead to frizzy hair and makeup that doesn't hold up well in the heat.
To avoid this mistake, it's important to choose a wedding dress and makeup style that are comfortable in the heat and humidity, and to discuss this with your hair and makeup artist.
You can also provide your guests with amenities like fans, cold drinks, and towels to help them stay cool and comfortable during the wedding festivities.
