Paper Fans (August Wedding)

Miss-b, 4 April, 2016 at 15:56 Posted on Planning 0 1

Hi ladies, I get married on 7th August this year and I had been thinking about getting some cheap handheld paper fans for the guests, just in case its a really hot day? Nothing personalized or fancy, just basic fan (as below)


I can get them for around 50p on ebay and having spoken to a few people, they have all said its a good idea, as it can be really hot in August, and we are also getting married outside, so guests could be sat partly in the sun. Obviously if it rains we don't need them, so a risk I'm willing to take.

I have 60 days guests (this is including me and OH) so my question is how many do I get? I'm thinking somewhere between 40/50, as we have a few babies and children coming, so they won't need one, I'm also thinking some blokes probably won't want to use one, so by getting between 40/50 most people should get one that want it.

Does that sound about right? Would you use one?

    I would definately use one. As you say men probably wouldn't bother. Women and girl children probably would so maybe base numbers on that from your guest list. Put them in a nice basket.

    I'd definitely use one! I think you've estimated those numbers about right, I wouldn't think the blokes will be too fussed, but little girls might love them! Good idea! x
