If you looking for unforgettable wedding here are 10 outdoor wedding ideas you can plan anytime of the year.

When my daughter got married a few years ago we did an outdoor wedding by the beach in lovely Miami. It was an enchanting weekend filled with warm, sunny weather and loving family and friends.   The theme she picked was elegant tropical decor. The gorgeous ocean breeze with turquoise waters and palm trees was the setting for the backdrop of the ceremony.

Since Covid outdoor weddings are becoming more popular even during the spring or summer, when it tends to be rainy or hot. There are things you can do to make your outdoor wedding fool proof no matter what the weather holds.

Planning Your Outdoor Wedding

When it comes to figuring out what time of year you want to get married consider the season and temperature. Spring has amazing weather but it can also can be raining, Summer has hot weather, so having it by the coast or mountains makes it cooler.

My daughter wedding was in March and it was hot in Miami but the cool breeze of the beach made it so much cooler. We also had the wedding in the early evening which made it even cooler. Fall is the most popular month for outdoor weddings because the weather is perfect. Given all this, the first thing you need to do is figure out which month you want to get married.
