When is "wedding season"?
Traditionally, the wedding season runs between spring and autumn - although there's nothing wrong with having a winter wedding!
You might find some wedding hashtags popping up in the popular months where most couples will marry in the months of July, August and September. Usually, this is the time in which people will be fighting for those venues. Summer weddings are very popular, with blush pink bridesmaid dresses being the go-to pick for the season, but as we all know, here in the UK you can never trust the weather.
