Winter is slowly approaching and any bride knows it is essential to be prepared for any weather with an umbrella. A wedding umbrella or parasol is not typically considered versatile however it has been used in many different settings during weddings; acting as rain protection, sun protection and as a decoration, just to name a few.

Unsurprisingly it is now becoming an increasingly popular photo prop in all-round seasonal weddings. Here are some examples:
