Couple's not familiar with the break down of monthly weather for a beach wedding, here's a quick rundown of Florida's Weather:
January - Chilly (lows in the 40s, highs in the 50s and 60s). Occasional rainy days as cold fronts push through.
February - Still chilly, similar to January, warming slightly by the end of the month (if we're lucky).
March - Chilly near the beginning of the month, but generally one of our best months for weather and weddings! Lows in the 50s and 60s, highs in the 70s and 80s are typical.
April - 80 degrees and sunny more often than not!
May - Very nice, getting very warm, with highs approaching 90 towards the end of the month.
June - Very warm. Highs in the 90s not uncommon. Occasional afternoon thunderstorms.
July - Hot and humid. Highs in the 90s common. More frequent afternoon thunderstorms, have a back up location (just in case).
August - Very hot and humid. Afternoon thunderstorms common.
September - Still very warm, with cooler temperatures (highs in the 80s) towards the end of the month. Less frequent afternoon thunderstorms
October - Another one of Florida's best months for weather. Highs in the 70s and 80s. Still a slight chance of hurricane activity.
November - Cooler temperatures (highs in the 70s), with more frequent "cold" fronts pushing through and causing occasional rain. Decreased chance of hurricane activity.
December - Generally cooler, with highs in the 60s, occasional colder weather and chilly nights. Getting colder towards the end of the month.
Helpful hints for outdoor weddings:
To reduce the presence of pesky insects at an outside wedding, ask your reception location manager to spray the area with insect-repellent in the days before your event.
Check the 10-day forecast leading up to your event and start taking any necessary precautions if it looks like the weather won't be ideal.
Sign up for weather alerts — that way you'll be able to get the latest updates while you're running around.
If the weather sounds like it might be bad, consider providing transportation for your guests from their hotels.
Double-check with all your vendors that they won't have any special requirements due to inclement or particularly hot weather.
Avoid tan lines that could distract from the cut of your gown's neckline by getting a spray tan a few days before the wedding
Assess the flowers in window boxes or pots surrounding your outdoor site — are they wilted or leggy? If so, you may want to ask your reception manager to swap them out for healthier flowers.
Make sure your elderly guests are aware of the weather forecast so that they can plan accordingly.
Remember you can't control mother nature no matter how much you want to so do your best to be prepared....but most of all ENJOY your wedding day in the company of family and great friends!
Happy Planning to you and Best Wishes!
