Best Wedding Dates in 2025
First Thing’s First
The best wedding date for you will be different than for someone else. While a small intimate wedding could seem like perfection to one couple, a large wedding that takes place on July 4th or New Years could mean the world to another. When thinking up a date for the big day, remember that it is your day you are planning for. Not mom’s, your best friend’s, or your distant cousin’s, yours).
What to Consider When Choosing A Wedding Date
Key things to consider when choosing a date are weather, cost, and availability of vendors, especially venues. While all of your guests are important, the preferences of some key guests should also be taken into consideration.
With that being said, your wedding day should be entirely custom to you and only you.
Keep in mind any dates that may have special meaning to you, while being mindful of your favorite or preferred season. There might be higher chances of rain during one season, but fleeting light in another due to early sunsets.
Spring/Summer
Peak wedding season. Vibrant and colorful scenery, warm weather, and of course the vibes that come with just being outdoors. There’s just something special about a summer breeze.
Spring and early summertime wedding dates are among the most sought after for becoming one. If this is the vibe you want, start planning early so that your dream day becomes reality. You deserve it.
Autumn
Choosing Fall’s appealing palette of unique hues and blend of festive, romantic, and elegant vibes for your wedding day could make for a creative and tasteful experience for you and your guests.
Winter
Holiday spirit, snow (hopefully), and lights.
With all three, talk about magical. With January & December being such festive times, it’ll definitely feel like a celebration. If you want a date that favors affordability, consider a winter wedding, particularly in January, February, or October. Also consider an earlier start time, because daylight for photos will go fast.
Your ceremony might be indoors unless you’re bold, but either way, be sure you can handle the cold for those beautiful outdoor winter photos with your spouse.
And Lastly, You Got This.
Choosing a weekday for your wedding could also open up more availability options for less cost. Each season has its own unique energy for you to shape your big day however you’d like. Whatever you are dreaming up for your wedding is very possible, and likely if you plan enough in advance. Don’t stress yourself out, take your time planning, but start early. The earlier to start planning, the more you can plan at your own pace. Do what feels right to YOU, choose a trustworthy venue & vendors, and you’ll successfully be on your way to that perfect date.
Your dream wedding is closer than it seems. Whether you’re eloping, having a smaller intimate wedding, or a larger & fancier wedding, you deserve for it to go perfectly.
