Summer Wedding<\/h2>\n<\/div>

Summer is the most popular choice for weddings because\u00a0of a couple of reasons. Summer weddings also come with some unique challenges. Take a look at these pros and cons to decide if summer offers the best month for wedding planning for you.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Pros<\/h3>\n

June’s brides.<\/p>\n

The number one reason for Summer weddings is for families to take off from work and bring their kids who are out of\u00a0school. If it’s important to have a lot of wedding\u00a0guests or to see your younger family and friends at your wedding, summer\u00a0is the ideal wedding season.<\/p>\n

You’re almost guaranteed some good weather in the summer. You’re less likely to face wind, cold, and rain on a summer wedding day. Especially if you like beach or outdoor weddings,<\/a> the weather should not be a major consideration.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Cons<\/h3>\n

Difficulty in booking wedding venues.<\/p>\n

Due to the popularity of Summer months, it can be difficult\u00a0to book a time slot for your wedding. A lot of venues and vendors get booked early on. You may have to plan your wedding a\u00a0year\u00a0in advance.<\/p>\n

Another challenge could sometimes be the weather. You’ll have to take that into consideration when\u00a0choosing your wedding dress<\/a>. Big, extravagant dresses with a lot of layers can be uncomfortable in the Summer heat. If your reception or ceremony\u00a0is outdoors, you’ll need to pick a lighter, more comfortable dress.<\/p>\n

If your wedding dreams involved a big princess dress, there’s probably a better season for you.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Fall Wedding<\/h2>\n<\/div>

Fall weddings offer a unique visual display of colors, especially for bridesmaids and wedding\u00a0guests.<\/a> You could choose an ivory wedding dress<\/a> or go with a variety of other bridal colors. You bridesmaids could wear jeweled tone dresses in harmony with changing of the leaves.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Pros<\/strong><\/p>\n

The pros of a fall wedding are many. The colors! Is there anything more beautiful than fall foliage? Just imagine bright reds, oranges, yellows and maroons showing up in the background of all your photos. Fall weddings inspire a bride to go bold and beautiful. Just take your inspiration from what nature is telling you.<\/p>\n

You can also feel a little more certain that the temperature will be comfortable no matter what you wear, especially if you choose to have your wedding in the early to mid-fall. Temperatures during this time are usually comfortable and temperate. You may choose to have a little shrug to go with your dress just in case things get chilly.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Cons<\/h3>\n

If you are planning a fall wedding you have to keep in mind the following. This time of the year is the busiest for families. Children are recently back in school and many businesses are gearing up for the holidays. For that reason, you may find that you have a smaller guest list than you expected while planning your wedding. On the other hand Fall season is the perfect time of the year for a small intimate wedding with close family and friends.<\/p>\n

Also, fall colors, while beautiful, are unpredictable. What may have been a\u00a0date for beautiful falling leaves<\/a>\u00a0one year may show nothing but bare tree branches the following year. If you’re determined on having fall colors in your outdoor photographs… Well, you may need to adjust your expectations.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Winter Wedding<\/h2>\n<\/div>

A winter wedding is a pretty whimsical choice. It’s certainly not for every bride, but just because January is unexpected doesn’t mean it’s the worst month to get married. It just depends on your priorities.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Pros<\/h3>\n

If you want a holiday-themed wedding, this is pretty much the only time to do it. If you love winter decor, this is the time to do it. Think sparkly, reds and greens, shimmery whites and silver. If this is your preferred season you might as well lean into it with a winter wonderland wedding theme.<\/p>\n

If you have family members or friends still in college, you can also plan a wedding for the winter to be sure they can attend your ceremony. Consider their school vacation and plan it at that\u00a0time slot.<\/p>\n
