Vaping etiquette is getting a lot of attention right now, with many people still divided on where and when it’s appropriate to vape. And weddings are no exception.
The holiday season is here, and with it comes the question of “can I vape at my wedding?”. Get advice from vapers and wedding planners to learn more about vaping etiquette and how to choose the right device and e-juice for your big day.
Where should you vape at a wedding?
Just like smoking, vaping should be done outdoors. Feel free to vape outside at your wedding. Just be careful not to ruin your wedding photos by blowing smoke on the happy couple.
But if the wedding is held indoors, it’s different. For places like restaurants, it’s usually up to the restaurant owner to set up a vaping area on site. But when it comes to wedding customs, the issue gets a little more complicated. Redditors have shared some tips, such as not vaping in a non-smoking area, being polite to those around you, and asking the bride and groom for permission. One Redditor commented.
“It’s acceptable when it’s acceptable. That’s the only answer. You definitely don’t want to be vaping during the reception and the ceremony. You should separate when vaping if the venue has a vaping area. Also ask the bride and groom. At my wedding last June, the venue allowed vaping, which was great for the guests.”
After asking vapers, we asked wedding experts for their advice, Kate Thompson a wedding expert at Confetti, the UK's leading wedding website, added:
“I think guests attending indoor weddings should ask the staff and other guests at their table if they should vape. Although vaping is different from smoking, it is still polite to ask first.”
Wedding Equipment and Essential Oils
Now that you know where to vape at your wedding, the next step is how to do it in style. Vaped Content Strategist Brett Janes says:
“It depends on where the wedding is being held, if it is indoors it is best not to vape unless it is your wedding or you have received consent from the bride or groom.
If it’s an outdoor wedding, you’ll want to choose a small, medium-powered device that won’t be too obvious about your vaping. Kids and adults alike don’t like having a big cloud of smoke blown into their faces. Depending on how much you want to hide, some starter kits can be a good option. The CuAIO, for example, is quite small and has a moderate power.”
“As for essential oils, since a wedding can last quite a while, choose light and refreshing scents such as lemon and mint. Fruity scents such as strawberry or pineapple are also good choices. However, remember to avoid strong cake or cream flavors as these tend to have very strong scents.”
