In times gone by it was not uncommon for young mates to refer the Tarot as to what calendar month of the year according to the stars would be their best time to get, this would count on what time of year their sun or moon sign was inline with Venus the goddess of love, which I would take as a good sign, and so on. Personally I would like to think that the longevity of a wedding would depend on the love of you and your partner and not on the date you get wed.
Now days the factors that make us decide differ a little. Each season brings in its own trend and flavor to a marriage. The time of year you opt to get married will indeed affect the style & economics of the wedding in many ways including location of the reception, honeymoon destinations, wedding theme and cost. Whatever kind of wedding you desire there will be a season to suit you.
An autumn wedding brings to mind golden & copper themes through the materials and the blossoms. Blossoms this season are natural yet rich. Take loud colors in purples russets, yellow & reds. Add a natural turn with dark leafy foliages and wood containers. If you choose flowers that are in season this will bring down the price a little.
Seasonal fruits that you can include on the menu are Apples & Pears; these are in season all year round. All these factors blended will bring a good autumn breeze to the day. Have in mind that August is quite common for weddings, if you are having the reception in a hotel book well in advance. The weather is also superb if you are thinking of honeymooning in Europe. Stay clear of south East Asia though as these are having their monsoon seasons.
The winter wonderland marriage, a very romantic setting of Burning log fires, mulled wine receptions and Christmas card settings. This would definitely be an indoor wedding, maybe in a castle or Hotel mounted with rich reds & golden glowing candles.
A December wedding is a good idea as the marriage reception price is dribbled in many hotels in the first few days after Christmas. The holiday spirit that is still lingering at this time will add to the atmosphere. Snowdrops, Tulips, Amaryllis, and White geisha include some of the winter flowers. Seasonal fruits to be enjoyed include winterberries, Apricots, Cherries and dates.
A New Years Eve wedding can be a good idea, ringing in the New Year with a festive and fun time for all required. Honeymoon destinations for the winter months variegate, you can opt for a skiing holiday with a amorous log cabin accommodation or maybe head for the sun kissed beached of Thailand. Keeping in mind flights are generally rare and pricey around Christmas so book your honeymoon well in advance.
Spring / Summer sun will provide for enjoyable garden weddings decorated with all of mother natures glory, a charming season for a wedding. The colors and flowers to choose from are in abundance from roses to the petals of the cherry blossom, the look of this season is relaxed and simple taking bold blossoms and strong colors softening them with driftwood or delicate wisps of grass & raffia. Some of the fruits in season are Peaches, passion fruit, and Citrus fruits, & Quinces.
Freshly picked chocolate dipped strawberries would go down well with a champagne reception. A marquee would be a great thought for this season allowing everyone to soak up the atmosphere, remember to include catering & furniture hire as part of the costs if you are checking the budget. The world is your oyster as far as honeymoons go however remember our summer is winter in most of the southern hemisphere including Australia.
Whatever your plans don’t stress yourself and take as much help from friends and family to make the big day one to remember for all. Booking your honeymoon online including accommodation & averting travel agents can save time and money.
