When I was 12, one of my cousins got married with a full Nuptial Mass. The church wasn't air-conditioned. The bride was 4 months pregnant and wore a full dress with long sleeves and a train. It was August in St. Louis. After the bride fainted twice, (delaying the ceremony by 20 minutes for recovery each time) the priest got a folding chair and she sat on a chair at the front of the altar for the rest of the mass.
I had on a light summer dress and I thought *I* would faint from the heat before that wedding was over. The reception was air-conditioned, at least.
