How to decide what time of year to get married

Decide which season suits you best

Sometimes the best way to choose a wedding date is to decide what season you like and feel most comfortable. Do you like to spend your days soaking up the sun in the water? If so, summer dates may be the best time of year for you. Do you dream of wearing a thick sweater and sipping cider by the fire? Well, then it looks like a fall wedding might be in order. Are you counting down the days you can't ski or build a snowman? Consider getting married in a winter wonderland. Do you love when everything is blooming and the weather is starting to warm up? A spring wedding may be in your future. Choosing a season that you like will make you more comfortable, which is exactly what a bride should aim for on her wedding day.

Choose a significantday

Many couples choose their wedding time based on a special day

in their relationship (such as the anniversary of a first date) or even a special day in their family (such as a grandparent's or parents' anniversary). Some cultures, such as the Japanese, even have certain days that are lucky and unlucky to get married. If you and your spouse decide to go with a significant date, be sure to note it in your wedding program or mention it to the minister during the ceremony. Little details like these make your wedding more unique and memorable for your guests.

Decide what's best for your budget The most popular months for weddings are June, August, September and October. Because of this popularity, these months will be more competitive—and therefore more expensive. Choosing an "off season" wedding date can save you some money. If you're sticking to a tight budget, this can be the biggest determinant when it comes to setting a date. However, keep in mind the convenience for you and your guests. For example, if you live in the South, it may not be wise to schedule a wedding in late summer. Or if you live in the Northeast, it might not make sense to schedule a wedding during peak blizzard season.

Choose what works for you
Whatever date you decide to go on, remember it's your decision. Family and friends will love gathering with you to celebrate your wedding no matter what time of year it is, so rest assured that whatever season you choose, it will be a great time for a wedding!
