When planning your wedding, one of the first things you’ll need to do is choose a date. Pick a date that works well for you and your partner, but you must consider other factors like venue availability, budget, and weather.
Keep these in mind because they can affect how your wedding looks and feels. Below are a few more such factors.
- The Season
The time of year can impact the overall feel and theme of your wedding. For example, a winter wedding may have a more formal or traditional feel; colors are more muted and romantic this season. But a summer wedding, when the weather is warm and sunny, can be more laid-back and casual, and since we’re in summer right now, you might want to follow this route.
So, consider the season when deciding on your date. But we’ll point out that there is no right or wrong time of year to get married; it’s a matter of choice or preference.
- The Venue Availability
If your heart is set on a specific venue, check their availability before locking in your date. Popular wedding venues can book up well in advance, so planning ahead is essential.
- Guest Availability
When inviting out-of-town guests, remember they may have already made plans for the date you’re considering. Sending your “save the date” cards early will help ensure your guests can attend.
- Weather
Depending on the time of year and location, weather can be a factor to consider when choosing your wedding date. If you’re dreaming of an outdoor ceremony, check the forecast and plan accordingly.
- Personal Preference
Ultimately, the decision of when to get married is a personal one. So, choose a date that feels right for you and your partner and enjoy the planning process!
No matter what date you choose for your wedding, the most important thing is that you and your partner are happy with the decision. Talk through all the factors together and ensure you’re both on the same page before finalizing any plans.
