Before you start packing up your bag with all your outfits, make sure you know the weather of the destination because if it is a cold place, you will have to keep some warmer clothes along with you. If it is a place where it rains more often, then it is best to select an indoor venue. If you are having a beach wedding, make sure to pack light clothes for other wedding-related functions like sangeet or cock-tail parties.
