8 reasons why you should go for a summer wedding!

There is something magical about a summer wedding that you cannot find in any other season. From bright sunshine to an abundance of flowers, summer provides a beautiful backdrop for an unforgettable wedding. Here are eight reasons why a summer wedding is an excellent choice! 

1. Beautiful weather

Warm weather is one of the biggest advantages of a summer wedding. No hassle with heavy coats or umbrellas; you can count on sunshine and mild evenings. This makes outdoor venues such as beaches, gardens and parks particularly attractive. The nice weather also means you can extend your wedding to the open air, giving you more flexibility in planning your ceremony and reception. 

  2. Long days, more celebration!

The long summer days give you more time to celebrate. With the sun setting late, you can have an elaborate ceremony and a lengthy one without worrying about time. This also means you can enjoy beautiful sunsets as a romantic backdrop for your photos. 

  3. Breathtaking summer wedding venues

Summer opens up a world of possibilities for outdoor venues: 

• Beach weddings = Imagine exchanging your vows with your feet in the sand and the sea in the background. Delightful!
• Garden parties = Enjoy an intimate ceremony through blooming flowers and greenery.
• Vineyards = Four in peaceful style among the vines, serving locally produced wines.

  4. Seasonal decorations and flowers

In summer, there is an abundance of flowers and natural decorations available. Think peonies, sunflowers, lavender and hydrangeas that will brighten up your summer wedding with their vibrant colours. Seasonal decorations such as bright parasols, lanterns and garlands of lights can transform your venue into a fairytale setting. 

  5. Culinary highlights at your summer wedding

Summer weddings offer a great opportunity to enjoy seasonal snacks and drinks. Think barbecues, summer fruit platters and refreshing peppermints. You can also opt for an ice cream cart or a smoothie bar to treat your guests to something special. 

  6. Clothing and fashion

Summer allows you to opt for lighter, comfortable clothes: 

• For the bride = Airy, flowy dresses made of fabrics such as chiffon or silk are perfect for the summer heat. 
• For the groom = Linen suits or light cotton clothes keep it cool and stylish. 
• For the guests = Comfortable, colourful summer clothes create a relaxed and cheerful atmosphere. 

  7. Holiday feeling

A summer wedding can feel like a mini-vacation for your guests. With many already in holiday mood, they can combine a wedding with a short holiday, especially if you choose a destination that is a popular holiday destination. 

 8. Outdoor activities

Summer offers countless opportunities for outdoor activities. Consider a post-ceremony picnic, games on the lawn or even a fireworks show to end your day in spectacular fashion. 

A summer wedding offers a magical and versatile setting for one of the most important days of your life. Whether you choose an intimate garden wedding or a grand beach party, summer provides the perfect backdrop for a day full of love, joy and unforgettable moments.
